Joy September 24, and September 25

Hi all, This road trip has been a long while coming. We are in our RV and traveling slowly towards Toledo OH to see family---my 95 year young Mother and a new grandchild. We left a week ago Friday - spent 3 nights in Santa Fe, loved it. The light there is magic. And because I misread my GPS we went northeast instead of southeast. Stayed in a small town in New Mexico a couple of nights ago then on to Dodge City. Tonight is our second night in Dodge City KS, went to boot hill and the museum. Wonderful day, hot here 91 . As we travel east we have been watching weather- so far so good. Leaving the Pacific then into the Desert and mountains, now on the prairie. This country is wonderful, big and friendly. We have loved the beauty and light as we travel. Every time change we lose an hour, on the way back we will gain. Good to finally be on the road, Dandy has been a great traveler. 9/25 Topeka KS today, the park is so well appointed we are going to stay two nights. Moving on Tues. To St. Louis on Tues. WE are giving ourselves a vacation---well earned, just mozzing along. Thanks for all your love and light, Joy

Joy Sunday September 18

Hi all,
We left CA yesterday, said good by to the Pacific and started east. We needed to go through a lot of population to get on the 15 and traffic was heavy. Being in the motor home can be scary and then feel very safe. Just getting used to it. From Barstow to the 40 we watched the L A gamblers getting crazier as they sped past us and cut in and out of traffic. I guess they couldn't wait to loose money.
We paid $3.91 for gas at Costco in L A. Saw a lot of stations selling over $4. Yesterday the price on reg. here in Kingman AZ was $3.55 good lord.
It is very dry and hot here and my hair is hat, no make that helmet hair, straight as a stick.

Dandy is a great traveler and is such a sweet thing, a labadoodle fell in love with him today at the dog park, tried to hump him till Dandy said
enough. Strange both dogs were fixed males. A mystery.
OUr plans have changed, we are going to have a short day and wind up in Flagstaff. and then on to NM tomorrow.

Ohio is a long way to travel and since this is a "vacation" from all the activity we can "mozzie" at our own sped.
Lorin is posting photos and i will write when i can. love to all, joy
