Melanie's blog was inspirational and I am proud of her on all levels. She truly has her "heart at home". I like to keep thing pretty much the same adding a new ornament each year and discarding old meaningless ornaments. Here are pictures of the tree. Note that this tree depicts a Grandma. i have a picture ornament of all ten grandchildren. It is precious to me. I also love my nativity...it is all white and just makes me joyous about the celebration of our Saviour.
As you can see it was quite an extravaganza. We loved it. No our seats are not sore. We are very comfortable on the bike. We were gone a total of 20 days. Hope you all enjoy the pictures!!

More pictures from Durango area to Silverton this time. The hotel in durango is an old hotel that was there when i was in Durango in the 60's for my public health training while in nursing. The hospital has been torn down...they now have a large medical center outside of town.
All the pictures will chronical the days from start to end. Description of the pictures in the first post....The first days we went down through Kansas to see my Grandma's grave who is buried in Pretty Prairie Cemetary...yes there is a town named Pretty Prairie, Kansas. The Hotel picture is of the Hotel my aunt and uncle were part owners in for a number of years in the late 60's and earlly 70's.
We went on a 3800 mile motorcycle trip a week after Jerry retired from General Mills. We had a wonderful time. For those who don't know the vacation starts the minute you get on the cycle as you don't miss much and seeing everything...accept for me the passenger who doesn't see what is ahead but has total confidence in the driver. I will post pictures as the blog lets me to give the flavor of the trip as well as my advancing picture taking abilities. Here goes!!
