Maiden Voyage and Football Send-Off Complete

Progressing Nicely

We just had a family barbecue to send off our RamFam Johnny and Makayla. The crew, all but three, were gathered together. We enjoyed hanging out, talking gardens, chasing children, boys golfed a couple holes, Joel strolled with the kids and ladies. 

Send Off BBQ
We all feasted on Carne Asada and tacos. It was our last supper with Johnny before camp. He flew back to LA the following morning. It was so cute, Zach and Stephanie had just moved into a new house from a 700 sq foot apartment. They thought they had so much room until the crew arrived. We had all been bunched up there many times, Zach said, "Now it feels like the old apartment!"

We have some new arrivals this year so we are growing still!

Johnny is now happily back in LA with the guys. We know he loves being home, but he LOVES his work. You could tell from his size he has been working hard this summer.


I have been working hard on getting things organized with the RV. We took  Admiral IRV on his maiden voyage to Salt Creek Recreation Area. This has been a long time favorite spot for our family. We took the boys camping here tons as kids. With sometimes interesting results. 

Ask any of the boys about the Cheetos photo.

The first camping trip in the rig taught us tons about how to organize things and put things together.

 Feel Free to respond with any tips or tricks that worked for you, RV friends.


We are hoping to get it all together before we head out on the open road for four months. 

We love our opportunity here and hope you join us.  More to come.

 
Good Riding!

  1. Bon Voyage! Faith, family and football. - A pretty good trifecta.

    I'm hoping for a daily blog starting Wednesday! And add a fourth "f" sometimes: "food" (no, not "fights") pics; I bet you'll get really inventive during this trip on the RV food front! Peace, Rick
