Happy Fourth of July!!!
We are at Lake Ozark celebrating the holiday.... It seems somewhat empty without Loyce, but we have to move along and accept reality...
My son Ben and I rode the motorcycles down here on Wednesday after loading our suitcases into the back of his SUV... His wife Danielle and the grandkids came with that SUV... oh and Biscuit the dog as well...
It was a cool day in the mid 70s which made for nice riding... And we thought we rode right along, but Dani was here waiting for us when we got here... We took the two lane back roads, while she drove the divided highway for most of the trip...
We thought it might be safer on the two lane roads, but even then we came around a corner to find some workers driving a Bob Cat bucket loader with rubber tracked wheels at about 3 miles an hour down the center of the road... It was being followed by a single pickup with its flashers on....
Your mind does a double take, as you realize that the truck is going sooooo slow.....
It was about 80 this afternoon, and the kids were out in the lake... I rode up town for a sandwich while they played....
I hope you are enjoying your holiday, where ever you may be this week end....

I hope you have a good weekend at the lake, although it will never be the same without Loyce. I'd let the younger generation take over and do everything, and I'd kick back and relax.
ReplyDeleteHappy July 4 Rod and family--all those "firsts" are hard aren't they.
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th Rod. I'm with Gypsy - time for the young'uns to do all the work. I personally just want the fireworks to be over and done with so the girls can get some sleep which means we can get some sleep.
ReplyDeleteHave a great Independence Day Rod. Another of my American friends says how much more American could the holiday get, Beer and Explosives. Enjoy the fireworks.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed the holiday Rod. It's most definitely tough without Loyce, but like you said, it's best to press on.
