Time to head south for the WINTER !

Sooooooooo, Fall is almost over here and the nights are getting crisp so it is time to head south for the winter.........

The leaves are falling quickly.....................................

The park is all but empty !

Time to say goodbye to the kiddo's until the Holidays...............................

My favorite place to relax in between "assigned" tasks, Tony sometimes has to think before we act.....

As Willy Nelson says.....................On the road again !  Texas Bound........................

Sunset somewhere in Wyoming......................................

TEXAS !  We left Polson Montana last Monday, and arrived in Texas on Thursday.....................

1st stop in Texas................Gas Monkey Bar and Grill (Dallas)!  Had a Grilled cheese and Brisket sandwich with smoked gouda cheese !  MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM !

Next stop, the Escapees National HQ and Campground............We spent Thursday and Friday night here with most of Friday spent cutting through bureaucratic bullshit getting our license plates and drivers licenses switched over................Bright and early Saturday morning we were off to Surfside Beach Texas for the next couple of months.  Our good friends Shannon and Debbie have a house right on the gulf and our rig tucks right under it !

Tight fit !  We made in just in time to get set up and watch the U of M debacle.....................

I am glad Shannon and I had each other to console ourselves...............

Bren and I have decided for the next couple of months while we are hanging out here at the beach that "our job" will be working out and losing weight.  Today was day one.  We were pretty creative in the way we used the board walk for some of the different exersizes.  Then a 3 mile run / walk (mainly walking) on the beach.....................Planks suck............................

Pumped up !  LOL

It is beautiful here and we are looking forward to exploring this great little beach town !!

More to come !

OCTOBER !!

Holy cow !  Where did the summer go.  We have closed the office here at the resort and it is pay on you honor / self check in until the 15th of October when we will close for good.

We have been very busy !

We went over to the Montana Idaho border and rode the trail of the Hiawatha.  This is 17 miles of rail trail that used to be the famous Hiawatha Railroad.  There are 7 tunnels and 9 tressels and the mountain views were incredible.  The first tunnel is 1.7 miles long and it curves.  Can you say...... you cant see your hand in front of your face it is so dark in there.  Lights were a must !  We rode it with our Friends Howard and Carly.

We were literally riding in the clouds at times...........

Ahhhhhhh, the scenery !

After our ride we celebrated our success at the City Limits Pub in Wallace Idaho..........

A $10 sample of all there beers hit the spot !  Great food too !

Love the signs on this wall !

We also did another Jeep Run with the Skyliners Jeep club.  The trails we went on were only a few miles from the resort and they were awesome.  Again, the views were incredible.........

Here we are heading up into the mountians.........

This cabin was deep in the woods and was one of the original settlers cabins.  Although you cant see it from this pic, it is buried in the woods.  We were parked right next to it and did not know it was there !

The views !

Jeep Mama !

More views !

It was worse than this looks.  Mud everywhere !  Nothing $7 at the spray wash didn't fix !

Turns out after talking to one of the guys in the Jeep club, he is a pilot and pretty much owns my dream airplane.  He called me up and asked me if I wanted to punch holes in the sky and scout some jeep trails from the air......................

Dream Machine !

Airborne !

Flat head river...................

The dam.................

The RV Resort from the air.............

And I will leave you with this !

More to come !!

Note:  We booked our Airfare to head back to the Detroit for the Holidays.  Looks like we will arrive on the 14th and head back to Texas on the 29th.  Hope to make time to see everyone !

MORE TO COME !!
