last of the warm for a while

Getting the last of the grand kid visits in before we leave for Portland.
I call this the one hour nutcracker because that's how long it lasted before it broke.  In Spencer's defense, it wasn't designed as a children"s toy.

Spencer and I have been supervising the construction going on right in front of the RV park.  They are widening the road from two to four lanes on a four mile stretch.


 Sewer pipe makes a good place for a break.
 Every hole needs more rocks.
He got a thumbs up from the driver of the tracked back hoe.

Molly has just started soccer practice so maybe I'll get some photos.  We won't make any games until we get back in Feb.

Next Sunday we will move the fifth wheel to Venice and the next day we fly to Portland.  There for a fast two weeks and then back to Venice for a month and another month back here before we start the trek back to the west coast.  That takes us up to March.

Enjoy the Holidays.
