YES, THEY ARE HOME! We've been very busy. Bobby and the kids got home around 5 on Thursday. We were busy unloading & unpacking on Thursday, Donna worked on Friday--and today is Saturday. We've been spending alot of time together & forgot to let everyone on the blog know that they made it home safely. The trip started on June 11th (Lindsey's birthday) and ended on July 9th. Other than the many attacks from hailstorms and a blown tire on the camper, everything went smoothly and we were blessed with a terrific trip. The kids were (mostly) very well behaved...not that they ever aren't. We would have stayed out there longer if we had unlimited time (and $$) to spend. The mattress in the camper was starting to get a little uncomfortable and the kids were tired of sleeping in their sleeping bags/bunks. Other than getting home to the kitties, having your own bed, shower, & toilet can't be described. We aren't complaining though because it was great having the camper and not having to stay in hotels & use public restrooms! Taking the camper along was a great benefit. We planned on "roughing it" a bit more than we did, but for 5 people to stick together like we did was enough to expect. Bobby had said that we were fortunate to be able to stay in all of the neat places we stayed. Although the campground wasn't great, it was nice to be able to stay right in the park at Yellowstone-if you don't mind bears.
Maybe I'll try to post more pictures tonight while they are all at the tractor pull. Bobby said that there weren't many pictures taken after I left...and I haven't looked to see what they brought back. Stay tuned ...
P.S. Bobby is feeling good. (Which is really all you wanted to know about anyway!) He is anxious to see what NIH/NCI has in store for him--and not really looking forward to it. He was glad to get the camper back & unhooked. It must have been a load off his back--which was starting to cause him pain. Changing the blown tire caused misery for his back. Other than that, he is doing great. We'll call NIH on Monday to set up an appointment and see what to expect next.
