I wrote earlier about camping up north with my friends and how I could of stayed, well I can show you just what I mean look at these pics you tell me if its fun? Frank and I were just there last week and he wanted to stay longer not to mention we have no car, just beg borrow and no not steal.

Now we are into Sept. I and frank have spent alot of time with family, something we haven't been able to do in 5yrs of crusing. Winding down from the summer the kids are getting ready for school and we are happy to see them go. Love them truly, we had them on the boat for a night and took some camping just able to spend time is a joy. Frank really enjoys them when they go back to mom and dad. Being able to see them grow is a grandma and papa joy. We are waiting for number eight, they are working it as I write. Not all of them are in the pics. One weekend at the park.

For the holiday weekend we are going out for anchor with all our friends from the marinas. Hope to have pics. Its time I get myself ready so I will be back after the weekend.

here are a few more of our times with the power squadron,the corn roast and cardboard boat race.

Here we are in MI.

hello everyone its been a long hot summer so far. since I last been on the blog, we have been busy taking care of mother which she now is doing; LETS SAY GOOD! and we are happy with that. June went so fast there wasn't much to say then come the July mth and seems it was busy again. I did get to go Noth camping with my girl friends. As always had a great time, & wanted to stay up in the woods longer. I think I could live on the property for a summer with a outhouse, river' & a cook hut, the bonus is camp fire, peace and quiet... what else can a person ask for!!
Had our commanders ball, will show pics. The theme was lu ah with pig roast. earlier in the spring our commander ( Pam ) some of you may of met her while visiting at GTB on the peacekeeper,anyway she assigned Frank as her aide what a job he had! As for that he is a busy aide to one strong commander and still going.. As Aug, come we around we had a corn roast, the squadron puts on and we all build cardboard boats for a race in the water, now thats funny (will show pics) I beat frank and his River Rat. Mine was a Barge as I named it Cindys on the Barge! Its been fun catching up with the friends from the squdron now they want us to get more involved again Like teach class this winter. Will see Frank is the one for that I can grade papers.
Even with the fun we been having still get to babysit the grandkids now and then, which for me is a joy, & to Frank its a job!! they are all growing so fast. will show pics. Even this week we are sitting for the dog, have to stay at the house every night miss our own home (boat). Soon we will be putting the boat up so a house will become more acustom to us as we go into winter. Well I will catch up soon again hope all is good everywhere on the flip side..
