This was another early day. We had a couple hour trip to get to Clovis for our noon sale. We were an hour early. The wind advisories were out again, so we didn't want to take any changes.
Our credit card devise wasn't working properly on the computer. Only one credit card went through. That did cause a problem for one man. He had to go home and get his check book. But he was very kind about it.
You know, probably 99.99% of our customers have been wonderful. Everyone is so thankful that we come, and they are so kind. It would be hard to have a better job.
After our sale we drove to Amarillo. Bo, from the Oklahoma ABC, brought us a load of food and our pre-orders. This is our last re-stock until we get back to Boise in a couple weeks. Bo and Jim are out in the truck now working. He had at least a pallet of canned food and a half freezer of frozen. I'm always amazed when we get it all to fit.

April 28 Roswell, NM
Happy birthday to Jim! Only 365 more days until he's old enough to retire. Who could ever imagined 50 years ago that we would still be able to walk, talk and even have a job at this age?
There's been hight wind warnings in New Mexico for the rest of the week. We got up early so we could get down the road before it got too bad. We really didn't have any probllems. Tomorrow it looks like it'll just blow us to Clovis, if we're lucky.
The Roswell Church serves supper on Wednesday before their Prayer Meeting. So they invited us to eat with them. The cool thing is that they also had birthday cake and ice cream. Jim felt special. He is!
He had our two 2 year old grandchildren sing Happy Birthday to him over the phone. Now that is really special too!

April 27 Almagordo, NM
This has been a nice day. We didn't have to hurry at all. It was only about an hour's worth of driving from one town to the next. We got here early enough to find a room, do laundry and even eat an early supper.
And to top off an already good day, our sales were 3 times better than last trip.
One lady came in saying that she started worrying about us this afternoon. She was afraid we wouldn't have a place to stay. It's nice to know they care.
Another couple came tonight because they saw the truck parked at the motel this afternoon. They are actually traveling. Apparently they were traveling last year and found us when we were in Las Vegas.
I wish I could remember everyone who comes on the truck. But I have noticed that a lot more of our customers look familiar enough that I almost think I know them!

April 26 Las Cruces, NM
Since we left the trailer a the Church it was easier to do a couple errands this morning, like going to the bank.
When we got back to the trailer, we spent a couple hours putting more books on the shelves. It always amazes me to be able to empty two or three more boxes, when I thought the shelves were already full.
We were ready for our mid-afternoon meal when we got to Las Cruces. We found a Ruby Tuesday (our favorite) but we couldn't even get close to finding a place to park within walking distance. Everything had signs saying NO TRUCKS. We finally found a Subway in a shopping area. Still had to walk a little ways. And it wasn't much of a meal when you only get two a day.
Don Blystone met us about an hour before our sale. He's really great at being here for us and helping. He knows the people here and us, so he's a big asset to our sale. We had a wonderful sale. The trailer was full to overflowing most of the time. We were open about a half hour longer than advertised. About 15 minutes after that when we were packing up, another family came in and shopped.
Then to make the night even later, my cash - up didn't come out. After about a half hour of re-counting and checking everything again and again, Jim remembered that he did a refund that would affect my totals. WHOOPS! He wasn't wrong. I wasn't wrong. It's just that the right hand doesn't always know what the left hand has done. We didn't get to our motel until around 9:00.

April 25 El Paso, TX
The sale was scheduled from 1 - 4:00. We got there about 10:30 so we could finish putting the new product away that we picked up in Keene. By 11:00 we had people stopping by to see if we were open yet. We hated to send them away, but they all seemed okay with us opening at 12:30.
Usually this Church has a fund raiser at the same time we're here. Today they had a conflict of interest. We had a great turn out anyway. Usually the trailer is so full that no one can move, today the spacing was good. And we still had a great sale.
We left the trailer again for overnight. It felt good to get back to our motel and get off our feet. We were standing for almost 8 hours, never setting down once (or eating any lunch).
You know this could be a great diet job, if we didn't eat junk between meals to keep us going. We need that extra energy.

Guadalupe Mountains National Park, TX
It was a beautiful Sabbath day to enjoy God's nature book. The last two pictures are of salt flats.
After we left the Carlsbad Caverns, we drove by Guadalupe Mountains National Park. It's on the same road, only a few miles away. To be able to appreciate this park more, we would have had to walk some trails up the mountain. Luckily for me, we didn't have time. We did enjoy what we did see.
Two national parks in one day is quite a deal!!! We had a very special day.
We finished our drive to El Paso so we could be ready for tomorrow's sale. We really couldn't find a motel with truck parking, so we left the trailer parked at the Church.

Carlsbad Caverns National Park
A picture is worth a thousand words....................
We got to the park around 1:00. We drove the semi to the Visitor Center. We weren't expecting it to be several miles up a winding mountain road. Aren't caves a hole in the ground?
The cave has two entrances. The natural entrance is for the adventureous, strong and brave. We took the elevator down. That took one minute instead of an hour of hard walking.
We enjoyed the cave. I took at least 200 pictures, it was so pretty. I'll be lucky if half of them are good. It really is too dark down there to take pictures. Sometimes it was better with the flash and sometimes without.
It started out feeling cold, but before we got back, I was clammy. We took the 1 1/3 mile trail. There was so much to see.

April 23 Carlsbad, NM
As soon as we finished our breakfast, we started working in the trailer, processing our new stock. Around 3:00 we packed it up and hit the road. First we got fuel and a truck wash. That took more than an hour.
We checked the mileage and found out that it was almost the same if we went to El Paso by the way of Carlsbad, NM. so tomorrow we'll be able to see the Caverns. That will be fun.
I read a whole book while we drove today. Several people have asked for the book "A thousand shall fall". Since I now have it, I decided to read it. It really is a good book. Right now I have at least ten more books that I want to read.
We didn't get to Carlsbad until after 8:00 mountain time. Since we just crossed the time zone, it felt like 9:00. Breakfast was a very distant memory. We finally had supper around 9:30 at Pizza Hut. I don't like eating so late. We set up a couple hours, giving our supper time to settle a little. We definately sleep better that way. But it makes for a ate night.

April 22 Abilene, TX
We worked hard and we finished! The employees at Keene ABC helped to pull the orders, so Jim had more time to get other stuff done. I had most of the books that I want yesterday. So today the main thing I had to do was enter the electronic transfer.
Boy! was it humid and sultry today. My hair is so curly and kinky. I have never liked the humidity.
We really enjoyed all the blue and red flowers on the way back to Abilene. We got here around 8:30. Makes for a long day.
They have severe storm warnings out tonight. And there are some tornado watches out too. But I don't think they are expecting them in the area that we are in.

April 21 Keene, TX
We got a good start on the day. We had about a three hour drive to Keene. We got here in time to have lunch at the little cafe in the ABC. She makes great veggie burgers.
Spring is here. We saw so many Bluebonnets and Indian Paint Brush by the road. Sometimes there were big fields of either or both. I'll try to keep it to just a couple pictures to share.
We love coming to Keene. The store is a pleasure to shop in. They are the biggest store we go to and very well stocked. And of course we enjoy spending time with Mickey and Donald.
And the extra special bonus is the time we get to spend with Emery and Patty Lockwood. Tonight we went to a Mexican Restaurant with them. It really doesn't matter what we eat, just so we can go together.
It got pretty warm today. Almost hot, in fact. Hard to believe that two weeks ago we were in snow.
April 20 Abilene, TX
Breakfast at the motel was sad pickings. There wasn't even any orange juice left. Since we had enough time and Denney's was just a couple blocks down the street, we ate there. It was a nice walk.
We had about three hours to drive to Abilene. Our sale was smaller then the last three, but still better than the last time we were here. That's always nice.
We're about a day ahead of severe weather. Between Amarillo and Lubbock, they had heavy rains at the rate of 2" per hour. They had some tornadoes in that area too. And they are expecting bad weather here in the next day or two.
The Lord just keeps blessing us in so many ways.

April 19 Midland, TX
Texas must really be proud of the shape of their state. All the motels we've been to, have waffle irons in the shape of Texas. The nicest thing about that is the waffles aren't as big and I can eat the whole thing.
We took the time to do a WalMart stop today. We haven't done that as much this year since we aren't eating in the truck. Jim finally got a hair cut. He's wanted to since we were in Montana, 6 states ago.
The weather has been overcast, but warm, in the 60's. Hopefully we're all done with the snow and winter weather.
We had another fantastic sale today. That's three exceptionally good sales in a row. The Lord is certainly blessing us.
We met another lady that was the roommate of a friend of mine. I've know Joy since she was a teenager, only about 25 years ago. This lady has know her just a few years longer. It's a small world.

April 18 Lubbock, TX
Another 12 hour day, but a very exciting one. Our first sale was in Amarillo from 10 - 12:00. We were busy with great sales the whole time.
The next sale was from 4 - 6:00 in Lubbock. They planned a fund raiser at the same time. That helps our sales and their project.
They just opened a new school this year, so the teacher picked out a lot of books that she wanted for her library. She set them up outside on tables for the parents to choose what they would like to buy. The students were at the tables showing the books. The parents brought about half of the books. When everyone was finished shopping, one couple bought the rest of the books and donated them to the school.
Our ales more than doubled from our last visit there. along with our first sale today, we had a FANTASTIC day. But we didn't have time for anything else.
The Lubbaock Church also had a supper fund raiser. So we did get to eat. Otherwise it would have been after 9:00. It took a couple hours to restock the truck after our last sale. We actually have some empty shelves. That's good and bad!
Our last man to leave stopped and had prayer with us. How special!

April 17 Amarillo, TX
It was hard to want to leave this motel room today. So after lunch, we didn't.
I read two books, Jim read one. He made a couple phone calls and I took a nap. Not an exciting day but very relaxing. We needed that.

April 16 Sand Dunes National Park
We got on the road as soon as we could so we could stop by the Sand Dunes Nat'l Park. It was only 16 miles off the road. The sand dune is so big that it could cover the city of Denver. Unbelievable!
We walked a half mile loop, but it was so windy that it made it seem colder. We were glad to get back to the truck to warm up.
This really wasn't the right time of the year to enjoy the park, but I'm still glad we went.
The drive from Alamosa,CO to Amarillo, TX is long. And most of the way it was overcast and dreary. When we got here it was dark and foggy. It wasn't really a nice trip. But we were safe, by the grace of God.
When we went through New Mexico, we were only 3 miles from a National Monument. It was a volcano. You could see lava rock by the road. We just didn't want to take the time to stop. Maybe the next time.
Wow! what a motel room. We're in a Super 8. I didn't know that they had suites. We have a real front room with a couch, chair, coffee table, and a kitchenette with a table and two chairs. And we have a separate bath and dressing room. The bedroom is really big too. I think what is happening is that we've stayed in so many motels, that they are up-grading us pretty regularly. NICE!!!
April 15 Alamosa, CO
We spent the morning in the motel. I did laundry again. There was only one washer and dryer. I had to do the dryer twice per load. That gets expensive and takes so long.
I remember the drive up to Alamosa last fall. It was so pretty. We're here before spring, so it wasn't so pretty this year. There were a lot of storm clouds over the mountains and fairly close, but we only got a few sprinkles. It was in the 60's, but it did cool off during our sale.

April 14 Pueblo, CO
Part two of what seemed like the same day. Mainly Jim had to load the truck. The trailer is FULL, so is the truck and even the outside compartments. All this is for the next 6 sales, then we do it all over again.
Pueblo is one of my favorite towns to come to. Naomi Slape is always the first person here and she always brings us supper. Tonight she brought us pizza, home made bread, pluck bread, jam, peaches, fresh fruit, juice and prunes. That will keep us going for several days. (pun intended)
The pastor is a school mate from Enterprise. Wayne was in my brother's class.
And a sweet young lady came in tonight and introduced herself. She went to school with my daughter-in-law. In fact they just got together a couple weeks ago. How special to have met her.
One of the first people on the truck commented on how great it was to see our truck so fully stocked. Several people comment that we are better stocked than some of the regular stores, like Denver. It makes our efforts seem more worthwhile. And so many people thank us for coming. They appreciate not having to drive to Denver to shop.

April 13 Denver, CO
After returning our rental car, we went to work. The Denver ABC didn't have time to get our pre-orders pulled, so we got busy. Real busy. Usually we go across the street to Porter Hospital for lunch, but never got around to it until 6:30. The cafeteria is closed from 6:30 - 7:00. It was 7:30 before we got back. We were really hungry.
Obviously business has picked up for us. We're having so many problems getting everything to fit on the truck. I know it's a good problem, but we still have to figure out how to deal with it.

April 12 Denver, CO
We had a wonderful time in Kansas at our alumni weekend. As much as I enjoyed that, and I did, the highlight of the weekend was seeing my children and grandchildren. As you can see, they had fun too.
The weather was super. We went from snow in Wyoming to 75 degrees and sunny skies in Kansas. It almost felt balmy.
We got back to the Denver area last night. We spent several hours catching up on personal paperwork.
We were able to pick up the truck after noon. They had to replace the brakes on all six trailer wheels. Hopefully we won't wear out so many tires now.
We went to a neat restaurant with our friends Jan and Anna. It's any authentic middle eastern restaurant. We had falafel, hummas, baba ghanouy, stuffed grape leaves, tabouleh and fatouch. It really was good. By tomorrow I won't remember what most of those dishes really are. Oh, we had baklava for dessert. I do know and love that one.

April 8 Hays, KS
Faster, faster, faster!!! How much faster can we go?
From Cheyenne we drove to a Freight liner Dealer just south of Loveland, CO. We've left the truck there before. They're suppose to service the truck while we're gone, including fixing the brake.
Then we hurried on to Denver to pick up our rental car. The car was at their 'other' store, so they had to bring it over. Then they had to wash and clean it.
Then we went to the Denver ABC to unload the big freezer off the Penske truck. Next we took the truck back. Nothing is fast.
We stopped at Ruby Tuesday's for lunch, knowing that would likely be our last meal today (and it was).
Then we started our trip to Enterprise, Kansas, for our alumni Weekend. It's a long trip but we think it's worth it. But we only got as far as Hays. The time change was against us too.
So starting noon tomorrow, we're set to start enjoying our schoolmates and family. My children and grandchildren are coming from KC to see us too. I'm very excited to see them.

April 7 Cheyenne, WY
Everything was in a rush this morning. Jim took the truck in to have that tire looked at. It was locking up again yesterday. They took the tire off and found a mess. The brake just fell apart and the drum well needs to be replaced. they picked up the loose parts and put the tire back on. We'll get it fixed tomorrow.
Jim ate a half pear for breakfast, then we got started driving. While he was driving, he ate the rest of last night's cold pizza. Great meal!
We drove the next 7 1/2 hours with two five minute stops to be less then five minutes early for our sale. That makes for a hectic day.
The road from Worland to Casper is all down hill and beautiful. I had my camera up to the window most of the way.
Most of the pictures are just mountain views, but what views!!! I like the signs that tell us how old those rock mountains are. Be sure to double click on those pictures. I've never seen anything 600 million years old before.
There were thousands of deer. One group was right by the road, but I didn't have my camera out then.
Some of the last pictures are of the clouds. We only got sprinkled on from that cloud system for less than a minute.
We were so blessed by missing the bad weather. If we would have tried to go through yesterday, we wouldn't have made it. Lots of roads were closed. Today I-80 across Wyoming was closed.
Today it was in the 50's so most of yesterday's snow is melted. I got a couple pictures showing how the snow on the NW side of tufts of grass or anything, hadn't melted yet.
After the sale, everything seemed to take forever. The motel people said on the phone they had truck parking and plug-ins. They had neither. But we parked anyway by the building and ran an extension cord to the building. the room is the smallest I've ever seen, but it's cute and nice. It even has a window seat.
The GPS tried to take us on closed roads to the restaurant, so we ended up going the long way. Restaurant service was very slow. We got lost coming back.
Tomorrow I return my truck and we get to drive together again. I drove about 2000 miles.
