We are still in Kentucky,staying uin the yard of my brother-in law Jim,who is fighting a battle with cancer. The pain is getting worse and he is in the hospital in Morehead,Ky. We don't know how long we will be here,it is hard to say at this time. I don't get a chance to get on the internet much. I brought my laptop to the hospital and now online from a motel that has wifi. Will post as time permits.

Back in Kentucky

We left Douglas Lake around noon and stopped at the Kentucky Welcome Center for a quick bite to eat. We drove all the way to the Winchester WalMart to spend the night. We will take our time getting our showers and getting ready to the 50 to 60 miles on in to Jackie and Jim's.

Thanks to everyone for clicking on the google ads on the page. The fews cents I get are not as much as some get but I'm happy to be getting any amount. Maybe I will be able to put some more interesting things on with pictures.

Its Over!

Yes the Long week end is over. All the kids have gone back home to their routine and all the things they do. We really enjoyed being with all of them. Nancy and I are staying a couple of days out at Douglas Lake relaxing before we go back to Jackie and Jims. We have a couple of things that we need to do tomorrow while we are in the Pigeon Forge area.

Labor Day Week End

Yes it was time for family and friends to enjoy an outing. This is the last week end of summer but it looks as though the high temps are going to stay with us for a while

The little ones were enjoying their meal and the adults also had their fill. After eating they all went in different directions. Some going to the pool to cool off while some went up to Gatlinburg to look around. It was a good day.

We had our children over for our get together today. Here our son Joe is helping out with the grilling. We had hot dogs and burgers. After we ate we went up to Sherry and Marks cabin to watch a video. Now they are down at the pavillion for karoake. They always have a good time doing this.

Finally another post

Sorry that I'm not posting regular but,Nancy and I are helping out all we can with our brother in law Jim. He has inoperatable cancer. Since we have no laid plans we are able to help in any way we can. We are in an area where I can't get on the computer with the cell phone.
We have come down to the Smokie Mountains for a few days to meet up with some of the children who have come for their vacations.
I will try to post some pictures. Again I'm sorry for not being able to post each day.

Still at Jackie and Jim's

We are still parked at Jackie and Jim's place. Helping what little bit we can. Jim has 2 more radiation treatments,then we have to see what the doctor has to say. Jim has his good days and his bad days. We will keep staying here as long as we are needed without getting in the way.

I did get a chance to go four wheeling. My first time operating one of these things.
Keep my brother-in-law in your prayers as he goes through this trying time in his life.
I will post again when I can get a connection. Right now I'm in Morehead on an open WiFi connection.

Going Back

We will be going back to Jackie and Jim's to stay for awhile. So my blog may be spotty with the posting,as I can't get onling there.
We have had a great time here visiting with our daughter Vicki and family.
Lexington,Ky. is beautiful horse country. Nice large green fields with the horses romping around so proud they look as though they know when you are looking at them. They look as though they are posing for you. There is a lot of road construction going on through out the area and they are repairing and building new rock fences.

We went over to Vicki's today and ran around all day long. We did stop long enough to eat at the Panda Garden Chinese Restaurant. It was a good meal. Richard took his lunch time off work so he joined us also. After we got through running around we went back over to Richard and Vicki's house to sit around and talk for awhile.
I will fill up the fuel tanks before we leave tomorrow. The gas has dropped down to $2.59.9 with the WalMart card. Maybe it will be a little lower tomorrow.

Another good night

We did have a good night in the WalMart parking lot. We were out kind of back were the car service is located. There was one other motorhome there also. Someone from Colorado.
I'm now in a shopping plaza where they have a string of stores including a Staples. I'm on the Staples WiFi Hotspot. Where they have a one hour free connection. I don't know if all the Staples provide this or not but it is worth a try if you are near one.
Tonight will be another WalWart night. They have 4 of them in Lexington,so why not?

WalMart Again

We had a good night as usual at the WalMart on Richmond and Man 'O' War. We didn't do much of anything today. Just walked around a little bit.
To night is another WalMart night. This one is on Man 'O' War and Nicholasville Road.
It looks like we will go out to the Horse Park for two nights. The fresh water tank is low and the other tanks need dumping. Boy I sure hate to pay for camping. Sometimes you just have to though.
