“Great visit with new friends”
A wonderful time with two citizens of ‘Shillueville’, @CBMichael @JoeBlueHouse and Joes lovely wife Lisa.
Our next time through we will definitely plan a longer visit!
“Ensconsed on Lake Manawa”
Near Council Bluffs IA.
We are right on the lake.
I had an audience backing in our spot.
I usually do, I’ve been backing up trailers in general for 30+ years and The Big Blue Beast for almost 9, so I’ve had a little practice.
The hardest part of our spring move to Montana is backing out of our winter quarters. Which has a curvy driveway, with lots of trees.
“I’m going to”
“Kansas City
Kansas City, here I come
I'm going to Kansas City
Kansas City, here I come
They got some crazy
Little women there
And I'm gonna get me one.”

First of all, we are going around Kansas City, and I’ve already got a crazy little woman…
She’s crazy because not only did she ‘pick me’, but she’s stayed with me for almost 47 years.
We are now headed to the IA state park, Lake Manawa, in Council Bluffs,and we are to meet @CBMichael for supper.
My lovely Navigator extraordinaire found the state park. It has a site on a lake with full hookups for only $26.00.
Short day today only about 5 1/2 hours of driving. It’s stressful pulling the Big Blue Beast through metro areas with construction and ‘Jersey barriers’ right on the line with no shoulders.
Last night, my formerly expansive derrière was worn out, and I went to bed at 21:00 after almost falling asleep in my chair.
