<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Merry Christmas and
many blessings to you in 2020. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Here’s
where our travels took us in 2019.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">January,
February and March we rolled around the country in our now 1 year old motorhome.
Casa Grande, Phoenix, Yuma and Tucson. In January, I turned 71 and Gordon
turned 79 years old. We cannot believe we are so OLD. BUT we are still having
lots of fun cruising and motorhoming around.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I finally got to attend the Tuscon Bead Show. I have been trying to get
there for 20 years. We got a lithium battery and solar panels on our rig, thanks
to our friend Tom who installed it all.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Our son, Garrick came for a visit, in Casa
Grande, AZ we cherish our time with him. It is magnificent to see the Dad/Son
love connection. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">April and
May were spent in our lot in Pahrump. We love spending time here. We then drove
to San Francisco to attend our daughter-in-laws father’s 90<sup>th</sup>
birthday. A wonderful fancy and fun evening. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">In June we spent
Father’s Day and granddaughter Ella’s 9<sup>th</sup> birthday in Morgan Hill, San
Jose with a few of our kids.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This was a
lot of fun. After that we <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>drove to
Oregon we had a nice visit with Elaine and Mel. We had a wonderful time until
Gordon fell and cracked his L1 in his back. The doctors gave him a few pills
and said we could still travel but Gordon had to do nothing but try to recover.
He was in a lot of pain. It took 2 months before he felt better. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">July was an
awesome month, we spent time in Washington with friends, after that visit we
spend more time with other friends in Craig, Montana right up and close to the
Missouri river. In August we stayed with friends in Fairway, Montana. They
spoiled us to death. Rodeo, concert and showing us all around. We then headed
to Medora, North Dakota, this a wonderful surprise. So much history here, I was
surprised we hadn’t even heard of Medora before. We want to go back, then off to
the Grand Tetons that was a really an adventure. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I got to go on the best horseback ride adventure
in Buffalo, Wyoming a bit scary but worth every minute. Friends from Montana
came to visit us for a few days. Thanks Gretchen and Frank. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">In September
we went to Moab, Monument Valley and Sedona, right in the middle of the month
our niece gifted us a week at her time share in Flagstaff, Arizona. Wow, we are
spoiled. Thanks Dee n Joe. We also spent a fabulous couple of weeks in Show Low,
Arizona, one of our favorite spots in the world during summer time. We stayed
with our friends Jerie Berry and Phil they have an empty RV lot that they share
with us. Planning to be there again this summer.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">October we
got a new refrigerator in our rig, this was in Phoenix, Arizona at National
Indoor RV where we bought our rig. Got to spend a week in Surprise, Arizona
with our daughter and fiancé. We then headed towards home to go on a campout
with our park. We had a great time in Tecopa, California. Tecopa has many
natural hot springs. You can only go in the hot springs nude.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">November and
December finds us back in Pahrump, Nevada where we love being. We have leased
this lot for 20 years. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Gordon who has
not driven for about 1 year now has hand controls, he is driving and we are so
happy this is available to him. On Thanksgiving our son, Garrick and girlfriend
Thuy came for a sweet visit. We had a nice dinner at our clubhouse. The next
day my son Wil came too and we all went in the desert to shoot our guns. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: right 6.5in;">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Our future plans include being in the San Francisco bay area
to attend our son Kevin’s Navy retirement, go on a 10 day cruise leaving from San
Francisco. Then to Gordon’s 80<sup>th</sup> birthday/family reunion party
(January 25<sup>th</sup>).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then who
knows where our motorhome, named Meli will take us next.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="tab-stops: right 6.5in;">

<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Last year
this time (December) we were visiting Gordon’s son Dwayne and his family in
Waianae. It was great seeing Gordon’s great granddaughter, Ariel.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After our month in Oahu we went to Hilo to
visit Laura’s son Kimo and family for a month also. It was a great visit with
them all.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Gordon and I both spent our birthdays

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">February,
March, April and May we hung out in Pahrump just resting thinking aboutwhat

wonderful neighbors, Lynn and Harry build Gordon a fabulous ramp. Elton was a
great help too. We are so grateful and cherish their friendships with these
dear men.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

will not have to give their bed up.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Finally we

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We got a real
surprise when Kimo wanted us to meet some friends of his in Fairview, Montana.
Nancy and Mario we both drove 200 miles to meet up. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We really loved our several hour visit with
them and we are planning to visit them again in 2019 but we will go to their
ranch near the North Dakota border.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Having a hard time waiting for summer to get here.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 107%;">We then
somehow ended up in Buffalo, Wyoming and what a surprise to learn that Longmere
was filmed here and just missed the Longmire Days in early August by a couple
of weeks. I told Gordon we must be there next year and that is the plan, sure
hope it happens. We also met another unique person in the local casino while
having lunch. He built some Sheep Sheds and will be putting them on Air BnB in
2019. You can see him online here’s his address </span><a href="http://www.307sheepwagons.com/"><span style="line-height: 107%;">www.307sheepwagons.com</span></a><span style="line-height: 107%;">. We also spent several days in Moab, Utah visiting the National Parks.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We spent
September and one week in October in Show Low, Arizona before the snow sent us
home.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The weather was perfect <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>until then. We were happy that Garrick came to
visit us there, that was so nice we really enjoyed our visit with him. We
visited Meteor Crater, Petrified Forest and Windsor, Arizona.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We were surprised to learn that our friend
Gail was close by so we arranged to have lunch with her in Windsor.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We got back
to Pahrump and we started looking for a new RV, something small and easy for me
to handle. We found a 24 foot, class C motorhome with a full slide on the
driver’s side. As I write this we have been on a couple of trips and we found
that it is perfect for us. We are in Yuma, Arizona and will be here and around
the area until late March, then return to the beautiful spring months in
Pahrump. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We are
thankful for our lives and our adventures we have been able to experience. In
January we will have been retired for 24 years and 21 years of fulltiming RVing
and two years of car traveling. (it was ok but we love the rv life style where
we can sleep in our own beds and we can cook and know what we are eating.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

concerts with them and maybe some cowboy poetry which I love.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We got a real
surprise when Kimo wanted us to meet some friends of his in Fairview, Montana.
Nancy and Mario we both drove 200 miles to meet up. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We really loved our several hour visit with
them and we are planning to visit them again in 2019 but we will go to their
ranch near the North Dakota border.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Having a hard time waiting for summer to get here.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 107%;">We then
somehow ended up in Buffalo, Wyoming and what a surprise to learn that Longmere
was filmed here and just missed the Longmire Days in early August by a couple
of weeks. I told Gordon we must be there next year and that is the plan, sure
hope it happens. We also met another unique person in the local casino while
having lunch. He built some Sheep Sheds and will be putting them on Air BnB in
2019. You can see him online here’s his address </span><a href="http://www.307sheepwagons.com/"><span style="line-height: 107%;">www.307sheepwagons.com</span></a><span style="line-height: 107%;">. We also spent several days in Moab, Utah visiting the National Parks.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We spent
September and one week in October in Show Low, Arizona before the snow sent us
home.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The weather was perfect <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>until then. We were happy that Garrick came to
visit us there, that was so nice we really enjoyed our visit with him. We
visited Meteor Crater, Petrified Forest and Windsor, Arizona.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We were surprised to learn that our friend
Gail was close by so we arranged to have lunch with her in Windsor.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We got back
to Pahrump and we started looking for a new RV, something small and easy for me
to handle. We found a 24 foot, class C motorhome with a full slide on the
driver’s side. As I write this we have been on a couple of trips and we found
that it is perfect for us. We are in Yuma, Arizona and will be here and around
the area until late March, then return to the beautiful spring months in
Pahrump. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We are
thankful for our lives and our adventures we have been able to experience. In
January we will have been retired for 24 years and 21 years of fulltiming RVing
and two years of car traveling. (it was ok but we love the rv life style where
we can sleep in our own beds and we can cook and know what we are eating.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Thank you, Lord for all our blessings.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Merry Christmas 2018 from Laura and
Gordon. Happy New Year.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I hope that
2018 was a good year for all.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We have
many things to be grateful for.<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><o:p></o:p></i></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Last year
this time (December) we were visiting Gordon’s son Dwayne and his family in
Waianae. It was great seeing Gordon’s great granddaughter, Ariel.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After our month in Oahu we went to Hilo to
visit Laura’s son Kimo and family for a month also. It was a great visit with
them all.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Gordon and I both spent our birthdays
in Hawaii and that was fun being spoiled by our sons. It was so cool that
Junior (Laura’s grandson) came to visit and so did my great niece Lauren with
her so cute Hawaiian boyfriend… We were there for the “THIS IS NOT A DRILL,”
IMMINANT NUCLEAR MISSLE ATTACK”. Since we were on the 5<sup>th</sup> floor and
unable to run to the elevator I told Gordon there is no place for us to go ‘’SO
GET TH E ICE CREAM.’’<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">February,
March, April and May we hung out in Pahrump just resting thinking aboutwhat
adventures we want to do next while the weather was really nice. Two of our
wonderful neighbors, Lynn and Harry build Gordon a fabulous ramp. Elton was a
great help too. We are so grateful and cherish their friendships with these
dear men.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>June, July and August were excellent. The ten
day cruise to Alaska was really nice. We attended our son Kevin and Amar’s 25th
wedding anniversary party, it was spectacular. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then we spent a week in Lincoln, CA with good
friends Genie and Fred.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We then traveled
to the Oregon Coast that we love so much.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Then we got to visit with some other special friends in Ryderwood,
Washington. Molly and Al they were super hosts….but when we see them 2019 they
will not have to give their bed up.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Finally we
got to Spokane and spent a fabulous week with our daughter, Chyrisa…..got to
meet our two great grandsons, they are so adorable.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Off to

<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;">Merry Christmas 2017</span></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;">We have been blessed again in 2017, that does not mean everything was perfect but that does mean we are grateful for our lives.</span></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 20.3px;">
<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;">We got all geared up for a five month trip across the USA to visit friends and family that we have met in our 22 years of retirement and traveling. We went on a southern route across America, we visited family n friends in Fort Worth, Dallas, Louisiana and did Florida up and down. Then to New Jersey, Michigan and Missouri. We travelled to the Carolinas and Tennessee. We travelled over 14000 miles, it was a awesome trip with no problems. </span></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;">We bought a Honda CRV that had more space for us and easier to get in and out of.</span></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;">One of the high lights of our trip was meeting my sister, Lola in Missouri where my twin, Tito, lives and we spent our time reminiscing, laughing and carrying on. (Poor Gordon) We went to Branson for 5 days and celebrated all our birthdays even though it was none of our birthdays at the time. My twin and I would turn 70 in January and I would be in Hawaii and him in Missouri so I thought let’s have a birthday party we will never forget and we did. </span></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;">We got back to Pahrump in September and had lots to do before heading to Hawaii for two months. </span></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;">So we are sitting on the beach in Waianae in December and heading for a month in Hilo in January.</span></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;">Gordon and I are happy and hoping 2018 will be even better. </span></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;">Thinking of getting a small rv I can drive and heading out of town for few months here and there.. </span></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;">On Gordon’s birthday, (1-25) we will be retired for TWENTY THREE YEARS.</span></div>
<div style="color: #454545; font-family: ".SF UI Text"; font-size: 17px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: ".sfuitext"; font-size: 17pt;">Merry Christmas and a blessed New Years to you and yours,</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"> We went on three cruises in 2016......enjoyed them all.....planning a longer cruise in August 2017 for our 35th wedding anniversary (in July) to Alaska...</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"> We packed up our car and spent the next several months traveling up the coast from San Francisco to Washington to Missoula, Idaho and Reno then SF.....after that we headed to Show Low, Arizona and spent the best ever summer in Juniper Ridge in Show Low, AZ. This was our 2nd year there....</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"> We spent the month of November in Waianae, Hawaii, our condo was right on the beach and the weather was perfect....Gordon got to meet his first great granddaughter.</span></div>

<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;"> MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM THE
BORNKAMPS’ 2015<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">In January we spent several months in Yuma….we went to a really
fun party for New Years at the Paradise Casino, there was a lot of food, great
music and favors….we danced the night away, it was all free…… We also had our
Country coach painted at a very reasonable price in Yuma by Top of the Line…we
highly recommend them.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">February we spent time in Quartzsite,
Arizona, we then came home to Pahrump, Nevada and in <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">March we flew to Florida to be with
my sister, Lola while she made funeral plans for her husband Tony. They were married over 52 years….very sad….<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">We joined Armed Forces Vacation Club
in April (AFVC) and stayed in a condo in Las Vegas with friends, Dorothy and Chuck……anyone who has been
in the service can join AFVC, it’s free. It was really nice.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">May was full of many doctors
appointments for Gordon….his left leg was not working right and he is proned to
falling…he now has a cane he must use.
Gordon went through so many blood test, MRI’s and nerve conduction test
and a spinal tap and they cannot find what is going on with his leg. Very
frustrating.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">Garrick bought Gordon a wonderful
juicer to hopefully help in having a more nutritious diet. We juice everyday
now.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">June was a fun month, we got an
Airbnb room and spent three nights in Long Beach close to where my nephews,
Steven and Stevie were and my sister Lola …we had a good time together. Steven
and Stevie took us to a fabulous dinner.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">July and August was the most fun…..being
in Show Low, Arizona in the White Mountains at 6K feet. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">We rented a really nice RV lot and
spent two months of great weather, golfing, dancing, games, bike riding, cards
and I did some pottery. Cannot wait to
go back…not to mention that we met so many people that were so awesome…hope to
visit some of them in February most of them are in the Phoenix area.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">September we headed for the Pacifica
Fog Fest and a reunion with some of high school<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;"> friends in Pacifica, CA. We rented a house for
three days….it was so fun….Got to see family in the bay area. We stayed with
son, Garrick for a week. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">October we headed for the Reno
Italian Fest, another great few days with long time friends, Dorothy and Chuck…we
met a lot of our family there….really enjoyed our time.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">November was really GREAT, a new park
model, we are so happy in our new place…<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">We got to see Rand Paul and Dr. Ben
Carson, what a surprise that they came to our small town.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">I could not believe the our nephew
Joseph would volunteer to come to Pahrump for 3 days and build us a patio, he
worked so hard, he brought his big truck and
lots of tools and worked his butt off….we are extremely grateful. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">We had a wonderful visit from Gordon’s youngest son, Garrick, when he
visited us in Pahrump, he taught us a few things about our Smart TV
which Gordon got last week….a 65 inch curve….oh yeah it’s awesome.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-size: large;">With the purchase of a park model we
will be part time travelers instead of full time travelers. We will not stop
traveling we will be selling our Country Coach and maybe downsizing or
traveling by car or air…<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
