October 10-16 Wilson, Smith Center & Mayetta KS

From visits with Loyde at his home, we adjourned to Sylvan Park Corp of Engineer park at Wilson Lake near Wilson, KS. We were joined by friends Carolyn & Glen for 3 days of games, talk and some exceptionally good food. The best food was enjoyed at the Corp of Engineer park at Kanopolis Lake near Salina where the 5 of us traveled to join friends Dave & Sherry and about 30 of their closest friends.

From Wilson it was on to Smith Center to have the trailer worked on at the Excel factory. This year's visit was not without problems, but we managed to leave nearly intact yesterday and traveled as far as an RV park associated with the Prairie Bend casino near Mayetta, KS. We were joined by cousins Ginny and Jerry for a trip through the buffet and some good gambling time. Some of us (me) were smiling as we left. Ginny and Jerry returned to Topeka and we settled in just before some torrential rain began. Now, it's off toward Indiana.
