Week Two Here in Huntsville

 Week two here in Huntsville has been pretty much the same as week one, a lot of just day to day living. You know, all the fun stuff, housekeeping, laundry, shopping...........ahhhhh the fulltime lifestyle, the fun never ends.....lol. We have gotten out and explored the town and checked out the fall colors in the nearby mountains. The fall colors have been nice, but due to the extreme drought conditions here in north east Alabama, they haven't been amazing. The leaves do a quick color change then promptly dry out, shrivel up and fall, it's been a bit disappointing, but still nice. I have done a little hiking it the mountains (see photo) and have been doing a lot of scouting around for photo locations which helps keep me entertained. Sheryl has been busy making a new baby blanket for our soon to be grand daughter and other assorted projects to keep her entertained. She has also been stocking up on craft stuff for our time in Key West as supplies are pretty limited down there. We have a couple weeks left here, we do have a day trip or two planned before we leave, but that will be another entry. That's it for now, I know not an exciting fun filled week to read about, but hey they all can't be like that. Ok see you back here next time...........................

Huntsville, Week One

We have been here in Huntsville for a week now and it has mostly just been day to day life, nothing really exciting. I did get an appointment to have the Jeep looked at again, the anti-lock brake lights are still coming on. Also an appointment was made to have the motorhomes generator serviced, we were surprised at the good price they gave us, but I'll believe that when when we pick it up next month, more on that later. One nice thing here at Redstone Arsenal, is the base borders the Tennessee river for quite a ways, which presents several photographic opportunities for me, just have to wait for the right sunrise/sunset. The above shot was taken at one of those opportunistic areas from the base.
That's all for now, just to let you know we're still alive and kickin and we'll see you back here next time!!!
