GOOD MORNING CAMPERS................!!!!!!!!

 


 

First of all......a big thank you to those of you are following me along this little trip of ours.

I again, apologize for not being able to visit each and every one of you as much as I might like.....but the WI-FI when traveling makes it almost impossible to visit as many blogs as I would like.


 Anyway.......we are now in IDAHO and this is how this part of the country looks  along Hwy 93.  It is breathtaking.....wouldn't you agree.



I'm a big city girl.....an I find it truly amazing that there is still so much BEAUTIFUL LAND throughout our country that is still in its natural form.


Most of you probably know that our highways often follow along the old trails.
This little spot above is a tribute to the Oregon Trail followed by many of the pioneers when settling our beautiful country.  Each vendor in town plants a little spot of this  memorial garden and tends to it lovingly.



Hwy 93 follows the Salmon River and that has been our route......we have passed by beautiful majestic mountains and the Craters of the Moon, which are huge fields of lava flows caused by a volcanic eruption many, many, many years ago.


We are currently camped here.....right beside the Salmon River....in Salmon, Idaho.
We will be staying at this beautiful spot for several days.

Next stop.....Missoula, Montana.

HOPE ALL OF YOU ARE HAVING A WONDERFUL SUMMER

HUGS,

JO

  4. Oh Jo I am so extremely jealous of you right now! :-)
    The Salmon River looks so beautiful and inviting, I can feel my mother's fishing rod on my fingers as I type!
    It is such a lovely place and so untouched, I hope it stays this way for future generations to behold.
    Have a joyous rest of your trip there and think of me should you decide to go swimming!
    Please tell your lovely husband I said hello, cheers!

Growing up, our family did a lot of traveling,each summer my daddy spent at Ft Lewis, Washington, so we went through Idaho and Oregon then up the coast... I love the Salmon River too... If you have never been to Missoula, Montana, you will love it!!! You are bringing back so many happy memories for me! Have fun! xoxo Julie Marie PS I am a "small town" girl and I love this country you are showing... you will change your mind about being a "city girl"!!!

TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY......I'M GOING TO HAVE A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY MONTH!!!

I turn 67 today.....and actually I feel better as the years accumulate.  Since I've gotten older I actually have decided that I will celebrate each day during the month of October...just being grateful for being healthy and alive.   I hope each one of you who follow this little blog of mine celebrate each day along with me.... Here are some of the things I have planned for my birthday month: 1.  Listing our current home the end of the first week in November.  We are pretty excited to be moving into a little smaller spot as it means less work and maintenance.  We just want to be able to live more and work less.  Although we still have not found our new spot.....we know it is out there.   2.  Taking a 15 day cruise on the Rhine from Amsterdam to Budapest.  We will visit 5 countries along the way.  One of the stops will be in the place I was born....Nuremberg, Germany.  My  family  left Germany right after the war...when I was quite young.  Memories are almos

PUTTING ON MY GYPSY SHOES......................

Bo Bunny Paper Collection Well.......the coach is packed...the laundry done in the condo....and we will be on our way tomorrow. I often do feel like a gypsy moving from one spot to another....and each year my gratitude grows as I am able to continue this lifestyle. I truly would love to "do up" my coach in Gypsy Style...but alas....not too practical as things probably would be flying all over as we traveled down the road.  (O: But.....a girl can dream.....can't she? ~~~ My suitcase is packed with memories To be opened further down the road When my caravan must be halted The bag waits to be opened Stories to be told and shared Like the gypsy's of so long ago But for now....the wheels keep turning And my case grows larger still Waiting for the day..I must be stopped   And my heart, to the brim, will be filled Hugs from me to you, Jo Gypsy photos:  Electric Gipsyland on Flickr

HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND A MERRY CHRISTMAS

This is a picture of our little tree this year.  Each year our trees seem to be smaller, a function of our getting older and just wanting to deal with less stuff.  I'm sure a few of you feel them same.  Although it does seem to be a little weird that we want to deal with fewer Christmas decorations and give each other MORE STUFF in the way of presents under the tree.   Ahhh...being human is such a quandary sometimes!                                          MERRY CHRISTMAS                                                          Jo
