Overland Park KS

We've been here a few days.  It's been very hot - near the 100 mark and humid. 

Overland Park has lots of trees and every franchise you can think of.  It's been rated one of the top places to live.

Rita has been working very hard and we've been staying in the nice ac room.

Harbor Beach

We went camping at our favorite park near Harbor Beach right on Lake Huron.  Just three days but lovely weather and only a few people at the campground during the week.  We came home the friday before the 4th of July.

June 2011 - North Lima and Port Clinton OH

On the 9th of June we went to N. Lima, Oh.  This was a longer drive than our last visit to Ohio but an easy journey.  The GM and staff at the hotel were very nice but a little crazy with the changeover from one brand to another.  Didn't get to see much of the area.

While we were in N Lima we got word that the site in Port Clinton got their approval for occupancy and they were sending Rita back to finish the installation.  So we drove back to Port Clinton and stayed at the hotel.  They had finished almost all of the renovations and the hotel lobby and our room were great.  The weather was nice and we even got to spend a little time sitting on a bench watching the sunset over Lake Erie.  It was only a 2.5 hour trip back home.

Memorial Day Weekend

We went camping at a nice park near Bad Axe, Mi with family over the Memorial Day weekend.  Rita's new Dodge pickup was great for towing the trailer.  We had some rain but it was a nice vacation.

May 2011

Left for Sandusky, OH on the 9th of May.  It was a good week with few problems.  The first couple of days the hotel was still getting ready to open. 

On the 16th we went to Port Clinton, OH.  This hotel was not open yet either so we stayed at another hotel down the street.  Both hotels are right on Lake Erie.  I finished training but the hotel did not receive their occupancy ok from the city so the bosses sent us home on the 20th.  We drove for this trip and so we had nice short travel days.

April 2011

No jobs in April, so no exciting adventures.
