Adventures.

I've always been a Huge... Patsy Cline Fan.

: )

She, sadly... died in a plane crash, the year I was born.

1963

Patsy was just 30 years old.

She packed a Whole Lot of 'Life'... in those 30 years.

From what I've read, none... of those years were 'easy'.

but, 

what a 'Journey'.

; )

'Adventure'.

: )

Pal, Bill... dropped the keys off, for the

 Cedar Rapids 'Racing' Estate, 

{September 11 thru 14, '25}

this afternoon.

That's gonna be a Huge Sale.

The Home is Full... as are The Garages.

We're gonna have to get busy... on it.

I have So Much... to do at Home, and... will have to start thinking about 

Gold Rush, in Rochester, MN.

August 15 thru 17.

Allyson will be sharing the Simply Iowa Booth, with me, again.

: )

We had a Great Time, there... in May.

It was Great spending a little time with Wanda, and Terry.

{Gatherings}

It's a lot different, than it used to be... at Rochester.

Oh... dear Lord... did we get CRAZY at Gold Rush... over the decades.

: )

There used to be a Huge Group of us... that would all go out on Friday nights.

'Michael's'...

was our 

Go To.

: )

Holy Smokes!!

Fine, Fine... Dining.

: )

Best Prime Rib... Ever.

Best... Margs, Ever.

: )

Michael's was a Long Time....

Family Owned Restaurant.

Over The Top.

Beautiful.

<3

We'd come Charging In, as a Group.... from 6 to 16 of us, after a LONG Day at The Show,

dare I say... we were, kind of a 

'Motley Crew' compared to Many at Michael's...

but, 

They Treated Us... Like Royalty!!

<3

: )

The Owner, called me... to let me know when Michael's was closing, and... was hoping I could attend the auction.

He knew how very much I Loved... 'Michael's'.

Always called it my 'Happy Place' in Rochester.

<3

Good Times!!

GREAT Times!!

CRAZY Times!!

; )

I... attended the auction. 

Very Sad.

Brought Home a few... 'Memories'.

: )

Guess everything changes.

Perry Mason just came on... I'd better get my Nightly Dose!!

; )

Love to Ya...

Prayers for All.
