Thanksgiving and a road trip

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We did. Our granddaughter and her parents joined us for a few days and we cooked and visited and had a great time. The big excitement for her was mushroom hunting - she really enjoyed that and also likes eating them. I like to hunt for them but not eat them, so that works out well for her!

We are heading out for our first real trip in the new-to-us RV, whom we’ve nicknamed “Cookie.” We’re heading up to Cottonwood to visit my in-laws for a few days. We’ve loaded her up with clothes and food and wine. We’ll park at the in-laws and be able to visit as much as we like. We considered bringing our bikes along but there’s no trails close by and we don’t have a tow vehicle at this point, so we decided it wasn’t worth it.

We have enjoyed the sunshine and false spring as much as anyone, though the lack of rain is very concerning. We are due for some kind of rain this week, of course, because we will be driving. But that is OK and I hope we continue to have rain as the year end and we look forward to 2022.

I’ll try to post from Cottonwood. Take care, stay healthy and safe.
