“We have always owned an RV and did lots of traveling across the United States 3 or 4 times – visited George and Joyce Tucker (bombardier) and they visited us in California and also spent time with us at Island Park, Idaho.

We drove to Fairbanks, Alaska in 1969 – shipped our RV and Jeep Wagoner back to Seattle and came back as foot passengers on the Island Passage boats. We also spent a month with the Tuckers in Orlando, FL with the George and Joyce back in the 70’s.

We spent 6 months in Chandler, AZ, from November to May and then back to our home in Auburn, CA and if possible head to Montana – Ed has a lot of family there and I have family in Idaho and Utah.
