IN-LAW COMPANY

August 31, 2011

Well, again it's been some time since I posted anything.

I've actually had a pretty nice summer. My sister-in- laws (my deceased husband's ) , Pat and Peggy and her husband Pat, came to see me and the rest of their family. Pat lives in Washington and Peggy lives in California. It was great to see them as it has been quite a few years and we got to catch up on lots of stuff that we couldn't over the phone.

We all went to Socorro to see their oldest sister, Alice, who is in a rest home, but is doing fine. Her kids put on a great meal for all of us and we had a great time. I hadn't seen any of them in so long.

Chuck and I stayed all nite and went geocacheing. Found seven I believe. Stopped in Hatch on the way back home and of course, bought GREEN CHILI. That's a staple around here. Can't live without it.

On a sadder note, the VFW POST 1477 is closed for good. After all our hard work we still couldn't keep it open. I think it's been here since after WWI, so this is really bad, but we did our best and no one can ask for more than that.

Sorry, no pictures as I didn't ask permission to post any.

Chuck and I took a short RV trip up to Rockhound Park, just to see how the girls (2 small dogs) would handle it and am happy to say that they did quite well. So now we know if we want to go someplace they will travel alright. Maybe later, like early fall.
