first stop…EMILY!

Posted on May 19, 2023May 19, 2023

Well…we are officially on our way to California with our Airstream! We left Pittsburgh, and it was weird to think that we wouldn’t pull back in our driveway until the end of August! WOW!

Our first stop was to see our daughter Emily, and her boyfriend Kramer – we had not seen them since the middle of December and boy did we miss them! Our campground was in Muncie, Indiana and we had stayed there last year and really enjoyed it! We only had two days to spend with them so we just talked and caught up and ate a wonderful Mother’s Day dinner together – made by Emily! It was such a blessing to spend Mother’s day with her! She gave me a great gift – as a lot of you know, my favorite color is orange…and some of you also know that my mom and I had a little “thing” where we would give each other things with flamingos on them – napkins, tea towels, magnets, etc….

My gift from Emily was a YETI drinking cup in….you guessed it….ORANGE – and it has two flamingos on the cup!  Another cool thing about it is that the “mascot” of the Airstream trailer is a FLAMINGO!!!!  Way to go Emily!  I’ve used it for my coffee every day since she gave it to me!

We just had a wonderful and relaxing visit with them, and already miss them!  NOW on to Minnesota!  New places to see…

    What an awesome way to spend Mother’s Day. It is always a blessing when your children pick up and carry on family traditions!!! Emily is an amazing young lady.

    What a great tradition you and your mom had re: the flamingos. So neat that you and Em can continue that tradition….in orange, no less! God speed to your next destination.
