We left Colorado Springs on September 1 heading for Manhattan KS. We will see all our doctors and dentists, visit with friends and just hang out here for the month of September. Not much scenery here so guess we won’t be taking pictures of any beautiful mountains drives. However we did find an interesting site just before arriving in Salina. There is a fairly new, Wind Generator farm there. It covers several square miles. It is so good to see wind energy being harnessed here in Kansas.
We have good times with our friends here though and seem to have lots of good food. This completes 4 years of making the rounds from Kansas to the uttermost parts of the USA and beyond and back again to our old home town. We are so thankful to God for our many blessings from Him and for our health, our safety and his Loving Kindness. Please pray with us for His continued blessing in our lives.
October 2008 Lebo, Kansas
Sue’s brother, John and wife Neva, live in Lebo, Kansas. They have a spot reserved for us to park our RV when we visit with them. We like to call it John”s RV Park. We so much enjoy time with them. Just a few days after arriving here we received a call from some Manhattan friends who are also full time RV'rs. Bruce and Francis were in the area and stopped in to see us. We had a very nice visit with them. They are on their way to do some volunteering at a church camp in Texas. John and Gene spend a lot of time with projects that each of them need to get done. First thing they did was to rebuild our TV cabinet and install a new bigger size flat screen TV. It looks like a professional job with wood trim that matches the cabinets and trim in our RV. They have switched back and forth doing work for one another but we definitely came out ahead. We all, along with my sister Joan and husband Dean, went to Wichita twice to visit with Sue’s other brother, Jerry and new wife Enid, a couple of times. Jerry had a heart attack late Sept. and bypass surgery in October. He is recovering nicely. We also had an opportunity to visit with Sue’s sister who lives in nearby Emporia a couple of times, once at her house and once at ours.
One tradition we have while here is going to a very small town near Lebo to eat, in our opinion, the best BBQ Ribs anywhere. We went there with John and Neva 2 times this year. Guy and Mae’s Rib place in Williamburg, Ks is ummm good eating!!
John will be doing another consulting job for a nuclear plant in New Mexico. He will be leaving here around the first of November. When he leaves we will also head out towards Texas where we will be spending 2 months starting Nov. 22. It has been great fun here. Thanks John and Neva. The skys in Lebo were worthy of capturing . The unusual cloud formation happened one night and the very next morning the sun rise was beautiful.

Upon leaving Lebo on Nov. 1 we went to Wichita to spend the day with Jerry and Enid. They have a lovely apartment overlooking Twin Lakes in Wichita. It is a gorgeous view, especially now with the trees all decked out in their fall foliage. Their reflection on the water was the prettiest picture we have seen. I forgot the camera!!! Their apartment is beautifully decorated and just perfect for them. They came over to our motor home for dinner and we continued visiting and really getting to know Enid. She is a very sweet Christian lady. They are very happy and a good match. May God continue to bless them.
