Mahoney on way to Oregon...by going east

[Tom and Margi]

I guess I'd better try it while we still have tomatoes from the garden.  Sounds a bit like a favorite grilled open face sandwich Tom's Mom used to make with cheese, tomatoes (salted and peppered) and crisp bacon slices.  She served it for lunch, but I guess it would work for breakfast, too.

Made it 300 miles to Kearney NE, misty all the way, 55F.
Cheyenne WY is 300 m away and 6000 ft, good test of my ability to cross the rockies.

Sorry that we won't be in SLC when you go through.  The call of the ocean was just to great to stay home.

Since we left Russ and Des Moines with fresh tomatoes. we've had the best BLT breakfast sandwiches, three or four times! It's now one of our favorites, especially when the bacon is slow cooked on her waiting new induction range.  :

 

[Wendy]

I hate all you people and your garden fresh tomatoes. I may even stay home next summer so I can have my garden.

[Bob Maxwell]

We get ours from local farmers markets --IL, NM and points in between. No need to stay home, just find the local produce stand!

400 miles on a sunny day 75F?Hard to beat.
Happily onsite at Terry Bison Ranch S side of Cheyenne WY. When I pulled in here I called the office because they looked full. Nope, still lots of empty sites. Desk lady took my credit card over the phone and told me to use any site! Easiest check-in ever.
Now on O2. O2 saturation drops to lower 90s at 6000 ft!

Glad you are there without incident.  Thanks for keeping all of us updated.  Greet all the Framily at Sutherland for us.

 

[Tom and Margi]

Russ should arrive in Sutherlin about noon today.  Let the henpecking begin!  ;D

" Let the henpecking begin!"

Lord save me!

 

[Bob Maxwell]

Be gentle. . .he's come a long way the past three months, let alone this week. [That seafood restaurant sure was good Russ!]

 

[Wendy]

Isn't it nice to know that wherever you go, someone will take care of you? Enjoy Oregon and enjoy the henpecking/care.

The only problem with this is that there aren't enough of Russell's wives at Sutherlin to do a really good henpecking!    You gals are just going have to do extra to cover for the rest of us.  :

Glad you made it safely, Russ.  Have fun.

Au contraire mon ami.    What Helaine and I lack in numbers we make up in enthusiasm and dedication.  ;D 

Hisself is now safely parked in a lot to the rear of ours.  He's resting right now and at 4:00 pm Lankfords, Hepworths, Mahoney and Binningers will assemble on our lot for some serious catching up.

[ArdraF]

I bow to the experts!  You have longer at it than I do!  ;D  And Connie ought to be pretty good at it too!  :

Have a great evening!

[Betty Brewer]

Wish I could be there.  But I will say Russ did take advice and travel reasonable days on this journey.

We left our cabin in ID this afternoon and traveled 93 miles.  I think I have this retirement thing down now.  Crock pot smelling up coach with saurkraut and pork ribs.  Well maybe I don't wish I was in Oregon.  Life is good.  Do keep us up with the Forum Rally details and photos.

Along the Clark Fork River in Montana boondocking, heading to Ennis MT. 

 

[Tom and Margi]

We missed you and Terry, too, Betty!  Hope to see you next spring.  Sheila June - Russ delivered your hug to Tom, as promised.  ;D  Russ arrived tired, but in good shape.  We had a grand time catching up at happy hour.

 

[Wendy]

Nice pics. And it looks like a nice park. Think we'll have to get over that way next time we're in Oregon.

I hope you do just that, Wendy.  It would be great to see you.  There is more to be seen of the park, town, activities, etc. on the website that Helaine has recently breathed life into.  www.timbervalleyskp.com
