WWW - Forest Retreat - New Caney - Apr 28

Things don't look quite as nice as when you get all set up where you are going. It gets a little compact.

Leaning out the door as we leave our house.

Welcome to Forest Retreat. This is a nice park.

Got us all registered and stuff.

A friend of mine gave this to me.

Our new visitors, Dan and Karen West.

Had to make sure the flag was up before Dean got here.

Pete cleans up pretty good, doesn't he? We're on our way to dinner.

We drove to Cleveland to visit this restaurant. It was a really good buffet. Looks like George is in a hurry.

Need help, Pete?

People were moving too fast for me. Guess my reaction time is slowing down a bit.

It had Mexican and American decor.

Thank you for a great day and good night.

LSAC - Red Oak Ranch - Hempstead - Apr 25 & 26

Sunday we went to Brenham to one of our favorite eating hangouts---Must be Heaven!! After, we drove to Frazier's (an ornamental concrete figure place) in Hempstead. This three wheeler motorcyle was parked outside Fraziers. Wonder what concrete figure they can carry in this?

Fraziers looks like the Alamo.

Bet you could buy this if you wanted. For a pretty penny.

Whew, it's a long walk from the car to the door.

Some of the flamingos on display.

Ain't he cute?

These would liven up your garden.

Heigh Ho!!!

Some neat table and chairs.

Yeah, these are chairs too.

Need some of these for my red hat friends.

Wanna ride?

Nice kitty---

In the evening, we HAD to go to Dairy Queen for dinner. In the center of each square is the Dairy Queen symbol.

Dig in, people. Mmm mmm good.

Lonesome George only has his sundae to keep him company.

Monday morning there was a bunch more to leave the campground. There is a buzz of work going on so we can get stuff done before going to breakfast. This is Manuel and Connie's RV.

Aw, Sue, don't be sad, we'll see you again soon.

Lee and Barbara getting the last conversation in.

Marlers are still here.

Ta Da---here we are again, eating. Barbara and Pat Bisson joined us for breakfast. Now Denny's is grateful for us!!!

Connie and Manuel were there too.

Dave Foster was with us too.

Oh, Connie, don't do that!!!

Thank you for fabulous friends and good night.

LSAC - Red Oak Ranch - Hempstead -Apr 23 & 24

Saturday morning dawns and it is the men who have kitchen duty. Here, George cooks the bacon with Lee Helstrom and Richard Brinley looking on.

Richard King watches Bob Trout make pancakes. Tough job, eh?

Manuel Esparza watches Bob make pancakes.

One of our new members, Charlie Stanger, stands by ready to help at the drop of a hat. Reg Coleman, Mark Didelot and Bruce Marler are doing the same.

Betty Shonk and Connie Esparza waiting for breakfast to be served.

Barbara Bisson is taking her life in her hands by invading the men's space.

Cecelia Coleman is in line for food.

Patsy King and Betty Shonk are ready for that good smelling food.

Getting ready for our monthly meeting.

Planning our Memorial Day rally.

After breakfast, many of the members head for Brenham for the festival. Not to be left behind, Betty Shonk, Sharon Foster and myself follow suit. Here Sharon is looking at an old, well kept, building.

Many many people attended this festival. There were hundreds of these umbrella stands all the way around the city building. So many different vendors it was hard to remember them all.

We stopped at an antique store and wandered around. This rocking horse caught my eye.

How long has it been since you've seen a doll like this?

A game room in the middle of the festival.

Betty getting her toe measured for a ring.

She's been "twinkletoed".

Different kinds of trucks and trailers.

Quaint little shop.

We stopped at Almost Heaven for an ice cream cone and these people were already here having tea.

Sharon and Betty join them at the table.

Good Night and thank you for a wonderful day.
