NOVEMBER 1ST - TIME TO HIT THE ROAD AGAIN!
















Tonight is Halloween and at first light tomorrow, the Starship will blast off on a new adventure! It has been a great summer here, but now it is time to leave. We have had the most beautiful colors, but the wind last night turned many of them into a colorful carpet which will soon be buried in snow.
My sons and I went to Kensington Park for a color hike last week. We took Spanky even though the Keep Out sign curiously resembles him. We assumed they couldn't mean the Spankster so he joined us for a 3 mile hike. This was his first big outing since his surgery and proof he is quite recovered!

My summer spot at the wetlands is closed up for the winter. It was a great place to be at this summer and I sure look forward to being back here May 1st.

I have been visiting many friends and saying goodbyes including a visit to the cemetary where my parents are. I sure do miss them, but are glad they have a nice spot in a small cemetery filled with maple trees.

First stop tomorrow is Mendota, Illinois. Mendota is the birth place of the famous Mandy Fox and also the current home of Dave the Wave and Midwest Amphicar. Dave is the Amphi trans guru and will help me make a parts list for my back up transmission.

Then - South to warm weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
