A SWEET HELLO FROM "THE HONEYMOONER'S"..............


 


FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE OLD ENOUGH TO REMEMBER THE TV SHOW......"THE HONEYMOONER'S WITH RALPH AND ALICE CRAMDEN....THIS POST IS FOR YOU.....

OUR WONDERFUL FRIENDS IN AZ OFTEN TEASE SWEET HUBBY AND ME ABOUT TOURING THE COUNTRY IN OUR LITTLE BUS......SO IN HONOR OF THAT THEY PRESENTED US WITH THESE MUGS FOR A 60th BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION.

I WILL HAVE TO ADMIT....THAT SOMETIME HE DOES FEEL LIKE A BUS DRIVER AND I FEEL LIKE THE BUS CONDUCTOR!  (O:(O:

ANYWAY......today I will share some pics driving across the Indian Reservation up by Page and Lake Powell in Northern Arizona.  




THESE PICS WERE TAKEN FROM THE BUS AS WE WERE DRIVING THRU...

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH OUR AREA....LAKE POWELL IS A HUGH MAN-MADE LAKE CREATED BY THE GLEN CANYON DAM.


THE LAKE IS TOTALLY SURROUNDED BY ROCKS OF THIS MAGNIFICENT COLOR AND WONDERFUL SHAPES.


Ah.......the WONDER of GOD's PAINTBRUSH.

NOTHING.......CAN COMPARE.

Thanks to all of you who are following along on our little journey.

Hopefully, I'll be able to visit each and every one of you soon.....but when we travel it can become a little more difficult.  

Blessings to All,

Jo

  1. Hello Jo, Jack and I have all the cd's of the old Honeymooners and watch them over and over again... love them! And I love your new mugs! The photos are gorgeous... I have some black and whites I took as a little girl when Glen Canyon Dam was first being built, and then Jack worked on building part of it and lived in Page many years ago... I haven't been there in a long while, thanks for "taking me with you" again! xoxo Julie Marie

  6. Hi Terri....thanks for stopping by.....Sweet hubby and I LOVE traveling in the bus. We can bring our sweet little dog, and we have our own bed, pillow, etc. It is just like having an apartment on wheels.....only you can pick up and leave whenever you want to.

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
