Moving

Linda & Mario moved back to our neck of the woods this weekend. They are now living in Lake land Hills. I know that area really well. I use to drive FedEx & that was part of my route. In fact I delivered to their house. On Saturday Ady , Kirsten, Jeff, Val along with Pam & I helped them with unloading their Budget truck. Then on Sunday after church & dinner we went over to help them some more. Moving is tuff but, I know they like coming home.

Reno 2011 PT. II

One of the places that we went to while on our vacation to Reno was Lake Tahoe. The Sirrine's like going there. It was a favorite for the Vander Hoevens while living in Sacramento.

The place we like going to is Zephyrs Cove. The family would always go there so, we made a tradition also. The water of course was COLD!










The weather was really good, the scenery was great. we found what was left of the show Bonanza's mock home, but I couldn't find anyway to take a photo. I heard someone said that you can. I didn't have time to find out. It was another fun vacation.

Reno 2011 PT. 1

This past weekend Pam, Mike, Michelle, Bob & Karen went to Reno. We drove in a big SUV. We left from Opa's house on Thursday Afternoon. That was the central point. We got as far as Yreka California before we decided we should stop. After a big breakfast we took off. It was better seeing the sights than driving in the dark. One of the 1st things we did was go to Virginia City. We went by train, Steam Engine. We were there for the outhouse race. There was a lot of "Potty Humor." Karen & I checked out the Crypt at the Washoe Club. The Ghost were afraid to talk to us.











While the girls were at Hairspray, Bob & I drove around and found the temple. It's a small one in a beautiful neighborhood.
Then there was our Angel Moroni that we saw. We were driving along Virginia Ave & the van you see below passed by! "What the heck??!!!" we asked each other?




























I can't help taking a photo of "The Sign!" The food was good as usual.
