December 26, 2014 Thirty-Eight Years Ago

Actually 37 years and 364 days ago we were celebrating Christmas with my parents.  I was 9 months pregnant; actually 15 days past the due date.  

My mother said "let's get this show on the road."  I went into labor after midnight, and delivered our son, Darin, that morning.  

Thirty-eight years later he is a loving father and husband and son, an excellent policeman.

Happy Birthday, Darin.

Today has been a beautiful Day After Christmas!  

Gary and Evelyn are all settled in, glad to have escaped Winter in Missouri.  

We went back to Jim and Dee's this morning to help with the un-decorating of all things Christmas!  There are already plans for the next gathering.  Remember New Year's Eve is next week!

The rest of the day Evelyn and I watched Glen and Gary work!  No jackets necessary, unless the wind was blowing!  The high was 77 degrees, with a low of 49 degrees.

Here's a few pictures of the new project...more concrete and adding a bathroom.  The bathroom will have space for a shower, stool, vanity, washer/dryer, water softener, and a water heater.

View from the concrete where our motorhome is parked.  The "pole barn", or outdoor living space, was built in the 1970's.

View looking to the west.  Concrete can be used for another RV; Framing will be for the bathroom.

Close up of the work.  Looking through the space where our truck is parked is where Gary and Evelyn are now parked.

Looking at the Bathroom area.
