The Groundhog Lied!

It has been officially Spring for two days now.  The warmer weather we had last week departed and left us with SNOW!  Not a lot, but steady 31 degree temps, snow and windy conditions.  I drove the toad into town today to get a haircut and it looks like Christmas time in downtown SLC.  Its supposed to last for a few more days, then warm up.

We are starting to route the trip to Alaska.  A lot depends on the weather so we will be flexible.  Looks like stops in Teton, Yellowstone and Glacier will be on the itinerary.  It will be good to get on the road!

Next week is Spring Break so the plan is to visit family in the area.  I have two aunts and uncles and my Grandmother nearby.  It has been so busy being retired that we have not yet had time to just goof off.  ;).   A couple of days ago daughter picked me up and we went to the Utah Animals Adoption Center.  They have lots of sweet little dogs that ware waiting for there forever home.  We walked a beautiful boxer, a little sweet mutt, and a yorkie.  I'm sure they'll be adopted soon.  They have a cat room with tons of cats.  My favorite was Heffner, a cross eyed siamese mix.  Saturday we will go volunteer at the cat adoption event at Petsmart.

The shakedown is going well.  We found a few more little issues, but that is why we are staying here for a month where we can get things fixed and fully operational.  Next week looks like we'll get all new hydraulic lines for the slide outs.   Oh what fun!!

Safe Journeys Everyone!

  1. Yellowstone is one of my favorite NPs ... and of course, I just love Alaska. Hope to get there in the motorhome sometime ... but not anytime soon.
