Reviewing This Day for the Previous Two Years

Every Once in awhile it's nice to visit the posts from the same days in previous years. Two years ago we were in Vegas on a trip that was made prior to leaving Happy Jack when Chi Chi and Jamie gave us free room coupons from a cycle rally they had been to. It was two years ago tomorrow when we hit our big jackpots at the Circus Circus Casino on our first spins on a machine. One year ago we were in Cody, preparing to leave on our journey to Amazon, via several nice stops along the way, including time at Patty's in Naperville. Sometimes it seems like we just started out, and other times it seems like it has been longer. Right now, we are anxious to get through this commitment here and move on to the next chapter. The fact that October is so close makes it feel like the end is not too far away.

The paperwork was sent back to the Mountain Views Resort in CO for next summer. We are hoping that it works out so we can plan for next year. That will give us a sure thing out west for next year, even though we still have a couple other options still open. At this point, we haven't yet heard back from Phoenix Flower Shops about Josie's opportunity, so our time from Jan- Apr is still up in the air.

The rest of the day yesterday was spent getting haircuts and doing more work inside the rig. The weather has been mostly lousy - rain or windy or both. Also, it has cooled down quite a bit so the fall colors are starting to appear. We both have now received our free T-shirts from the Kentucky Bourbon Distillers Association for completing the Bourbon Trail tours. Below is a picture of the souvenir shirt:

It is a nice reminder of the trips we took to those distilleries.

The fog has rolled in this morning so who knows what the weather will be like today. Usually, the sun shines when the fog burns off so maybe we are due for a pleasant day, weather wise. It's our second and last day off for this week, so we better make sure we are rested for the next go round. Later...
