Trilobite Success

Today we were successful in finding trilobites at the U-Digs Fossil Quarry in Delta, UT.  The one pictured below Roberta found.  It really made her day.  The pictures were of the dig sight.

Early Days Full Time RVing

We started our full time RVing on September 17, 2014 when we picked up our new Winnebago TOUR motorhome in Mesa, AZ.  Traveled to Minnesota to visit Bruce's family.  Then back to Colorado to see the kids one more time.  Just finished visiting our son and family in West Jordan, Utah.  We are now on our way to California to visit Roberta's family.  We'll take a week to get there and stopping along the way.  After California it's off to parts unknown.

Here are a few early pictures of our life on the road.
