Here are a few more pictures from our trip..... For those who are not familiar with the super-wonderful burger chain, "In and Out" there is a picture of the one we stopped at on our way to the motel in Klammath Falls, via Redding, CA. They have the most AWESOME hamburgers, french fries, and milkshakes on the planet!! Everything is fresh, they even make their own french fries from whole potatoes!! Can't make it much fresher than that!! They are all over California, Duane has been known to hit them twice in one day when we have visited Southern CA, and he is a health consious person by far!! In and Out is worth the risk of heart clogging!
Okay, seriously.... I no more get back from our vacation, and, on the 13th of Aug I am off again, this time on my own!! I try to get over to Idaho every year to visit my best friend Susie for her birthday, which is on the 15th. We are lucky to see each other once a year, so it's a combination visit, birthday celebration!! Her little girl Holly just turned 7 in June, she is as close to being my "kid" as I am ever going to come. I plan to kidnap her in a couple of years when she's more comfortable to be away from her Mom and Dad and spoil her rotten for weeks at a time during Summer break!! In fact, she's at her Grandma's house in Dufur (just outside of The Dalles) right now, and the plan is for me to meet them in town and take Holly back home to Weiser, ID. I am looking forward to that!! Holly usually spends a couple weeks or more with her Grandparents, and takes swimming lessons at the local pool. This year, she will be doing that, and also spending time with her Uncles, Aunts, and going to the "Thrashing Bee" event they have in Dufur every year, there is a parade and other festivities, I went with Susie years ago, and it's pretty fun!!
THEN..... in September, right after Labor Day, Lois and I might be going to the Wallowa Mtn's.
She has been wanting to go for a while now, and I have never been there, so we are planning a trip for a few days. A "girl" trip thing, I guess!! Things are pretty slow at Fred's right now, so me taking time off just gives the guy below me on the totem pole enough hours to not get laid off, so it's for a good cause, LOL!!
