Slow on the blog!

Aug 25 – Sep 10, ... On September 1st, we moved the motorhome out of storage to a monthly site at Dick’s RV Park in Great Falls. Due to construction delays, we were recently informed that we’ll not be able to move into our condo until Oct 7th at the earliest. Bummer!! We continue to occupying much of our time shopping for interior items for the condo. Items such as ceiling lights, ceiling fans, bathroom mirrors, bedding, and more. Dixie has been coordinating most of this project and has done an excellent job.
We made a 12 mile bike ride on the 'River Trail' bike path. It was a beautiful ride but a long one since we have not been on the bikes since last Feb. The paved path follows the Missouri river- we made it to the Lewis and Clark Interpretive center and then to the state park for lunch. It was a long ride back as we were going against the wind!
Last Saturday, we helped our cousin Loni with in her jewelry booth at the weekly “Farmers Market” in downtown Great Falls. It was a fun time and the weather cooperated. Dixie did some ‘billing’ work for Fran in between shopping! The family all came up for Labor Day and we had a wonderful ‘harvest is complete’ dinner at The Sting. This past Thursday we went to “Live at 5”, a weekly gathering in different locations downtown. This week’s band was a 50’s group. Doug & Fran went with us and despite a little rain we had a good time –except that Mike or Fran didn’t win the Harley that they bought a raffle ticket for! We went to the Voyages playoff baseball game on Sunday afternoon. The y won and the first game in the championship was today but it rained most of the day and it was postponed until tomorrow. The weather is suppose to be nice tomorrow so we will most likely take in the game. Tue. Mike & Dad went golfing while Dixie and Mom cleaned house. Later in the day we all shopped and then hung curtains at Mom and Dads! Wed. Dixie worked at Frans and Mike went to the gym again.
