We were looking at Cougars but decided to go with the 5th wheel. And we do have the same fabric on the sofa. <br /><br />We usually don't RV in the summer due to the heat and crowds. We're retired so we can go whenever. For sure it is nicer to go in the spring, fall and winter. It looks like we won't be going anywhere until this heat lets up!Carolynnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1310619866551674929.post-16155878760778721822011-07-23T08:37:08.965-06:002011-07-23T08:37:08.965-06:00Carolyn, I hear ya on the heat.

I think camping is best in late summer, early fall :)<br />Here's a link to more pics of our trailer if you're interested<br />http://flic.kr/s/aHsjvAumEdCalicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13932472478663949086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1310619866551674929.post-42765472873268746372011-07-22T21:30:54.992-06:002011-07-22T21:30:54.992-06:00I forgot to tell you how neat that footprint is. ...I forgot to tell you how neat that footprint is.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your father :( and hoping you will get to see another flower next spring!<br />Oh, and yes, that pic of me crocheting was taken in our RV!Calicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13932472478663949086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1310619866551674929.post-26902535393929200392011-07-21T23:31:14.300-06:002011-07-21T23:31:14.300-06:00Yep, those sure are signs!

He died in March of 2010. In the spring a single petunia started growing in my epoxy stone patio. Under the epoxy stone is an old concrete patio. My girls had given me a potted petunia plant on Mother's Day of 2009. My Dad loved gardening so when I saw this flower I immediately said "that's from Dad." Last fall we put a new layer of epoxy on the patio. Imagine my surprise this spring when another petunia of another color showed up. Yes, another sign from Dad that all is well. I am finally healing from the deepest of my grief so I'm wondering if next spring there will be another flower. Dad knows I'm better so maybe there won't be but you just never know. Guess I'll have to wait for my God wink!<br /><br />P.S. Is that an RV that you are sitting in?Carolynnoreply@blogger.com
