From Spring to Winter in One Short Day!


Let it snow! We've gone from beautiful spring-like weather since our arrival in Billings on March 18th - to winter again - with a predicted six to ten inches of snow coming down! It started with rain yesterday evening and by mid-morning today the white stuff was coming down non-stop! But they say that is very normal here in Montana! Hopefully the weather forecasters are as wrong as they can be in Oklahoma - and we won't get that much.

The picture on today's blog has nothing to do with our time in Billings - but it was just too cute not to share! That's our Hayden - and we are missing him something fierce! Roger is so silly that he checks out Hayden's pictures on our cell phones at every break. Grandpa Roger is definitely a basket case - missing that boy.

Just came in from supper - Red Lobster tonight. We decided to keep the Cracker Barrel in 'reserve' in case the snow doesn't stop - for our hotel sits right next door. We start each day with a light continental breakfast here at the hotel. Lunch is always a sandwich, salad or soup at the training center and so by supper time we are always ready.

Our new truck got the hitch installed today. The body style is so new that they don't even make a fifth wheel tail gate for it yet. Roger continues to find a new 'gadget' every day. This truck has buttons you push for everything from checking tire air pressure to the life of the fuel filter! Definitely a big boy with his new toy!

Enjoying an evening 'at home'. Have a really nice hotel room and it's feeling like home. We got home in time yesterday to catch the latest American Idol and have tuned in this evening to see who will go home.

Stay tuned.
