June 2011

June...Dixie attended the 'cousins' party which was held this year in Chinook at Pearls. She road with Gloria, Dina, Shirley and Lacene. A good time was had by all once again. Denita and Dixie ordered a beautiful heart shaped pendant that they carry some of Mom's ashes in. It's a wonderful reminder and keeps Mom close at heart! We sure do miss her. We went to the PBR Bull riding in Belt with Bill, Gloria, Dana and Dad. Dixie saw an orthopedic specialist (Dr. Bortnem) and he believes her hip problem is a torn TFL muscle. He suggested PT. She had a massage and then saw Dr. Crane (Chiropractor). He gave her some exercises to do and it is gradually improving. The 16th-19th we drove to Billings for the first FMCA rally of the year. It was held at the Lockwood School. While there we went to the Pictograph Caves with Gloria, attended a nice Father's Day dinner and had a great time visiting with fellow Rvers. Dixie continued work at Fran's. She worked quite a bit while they took Levi and Tyler to Hawaii for 10 days. The Voyagers starting their baseball season and we started attending several of the games with Dad! Our crawl space was dry when we arrived home in May but after unusually large amounts of rain in June we now have a few lakes down there once again....More trenching and sore backs!
