Still having problems with Blogger

Still having trouble with Blogger and I don't know what to do?? I have not posted in forever but I just can't get this thing to stabilize. My curser keeps going crazy and everything changes around without me doing anything? I think it might be my browser but not real sure. 
We have moved back to Texas and I am about to melt. I knew I should have come back the last of October. Maybe then it might have been cooler than it is now.
Kris is back in school so I am having to bone up on my Algebra. Still trying to think when I used Algebra the last time in my life? I guess he needs to know it just like all the other kids do. He will  be going back into public school in his senior year and they will require him to have had Algebra.
Seems to be working a little bit better now. I don't want to push it so better sign off for now...

Must be the Internet

I have not been posting on this journal due to the crazy things that have been happening to the software?
I have tried to do all I know to do to keep this curser from flying off on it's on and nothing at all has worked.
OK so I am on here today to let all the family and friends out there that all is OK and we are doing fine. We have made some trips to other places and seen many things that have been fun and exciting. 
Kris is back in school and doing real well with his studies. He has mentioned that he would like to go back to public school in the 8th grade. I have assured him that if he does well between now and then he would get to go but that his grades would have to stay up as they are now.
Well the software here is starting to go crazy once more so I must cut this short before I pull all my hair out! Hope that all is well in Texas and also hope that the temps fall into the lower digits before we have to return...

Blogger giving me fits

Garden of the Gods

More of the Garden of the Gods

 

Dinosaur Museum

Kris loved this 

Cripple Creek Station

Kris really had fun on the train

We had fun too

I don't know why Blogger is getting so screwed up but I have been having trouble with my curser going all over the place without me touching it. I have tried everything but nothing has worked. 
So here I go trying to post once again. I have been off and several people have emailed me asking me where I have been and why I have not been posting. Well that is the reason. OK so I am back.
We are heading to Colorado Springs to take Kris to the Dinosaur museum. We are going to stay over night in a motel so that we can see some other sites.

 We have taken the trip now and we have returned. I have some pictures that we took and I will post them. I cannot type much because I am having trouble with this program? I keep getting strange things happening and I have no idea why. Here are the pictures we took...

Planning a boat trip

Yes I am back on here trying to post some. I thank those of you that gave me suggestions on what might be wrong. I have tried all the fixes but to no avail. 
Oh well I am getting ready Thursday to take a fishing trip in the boat. Not sure if the weather will allow but I am willing to give it a try. We have not yet fished from the boat and here I hauled it all the way up here to fish out of. I guess I should have done it last month when the weather was a little calmer. 
We are trying to plan something for today. We have a break in the weather this morning all the way until noon. I will have to report back to you on what we decide to do...

Still having trouble with Blogger

Still having trouble with blogger being unstable? I don't know what is going on but it is giving me fits. If you notice irregularities in my post you will know what is going on.
Today is Sunday and we are getting ready to head to church. Also today is the park breakfast. We will be having pancakes and sausage. I can get into that. It is not on my diet but I can have just a little bit. 
I have lost 15 lbs. this season up here. I like that...sure do feel better. My problem is I lose it all in my arms and legs and nothing in the mid section where I need to lose! I will keep on working on it and I will have to start losing it in the places I need to...right?
Still having troubles with this Blogger Program! My cursor keeps going away and appearing in crazy places? Anyone out there that has this problem let me know how to fix it.
Better go...this making me mad...

Internet off and on

Forgot our chairs but we improvised 

And we had tractors too

We have internet on and off for the last few days. I have switched over to my hot spot to post today. Don't know what is wrong cannot  get the local internet for some reason.

Today we went to the Covered Wagon Days in Del Norte. They had a parade as many town towns do with tractors the fire department EMS and all the local clubs. One thing new I had not see in parades in all the small towns is they had the different high school classes with a float of their own. 

We had a real good time. This connection is acting up now so I better close it off here...

Laid back Sunday

Sunday we got up and went to church. It was cloudy and looked like it might rain but never the less we walked up there. During the service you could hear the rain when it came in. All I could think about was how are we going to get home.
Well as things would have it when the service was over and we stepped outside there was Rick waiting for us. Becky told him to go and get us because we had walked and she knew we would be soaked if we did not have a ride home.
Thanks Becky for thinking of us 
We had a quite day with a some rain. The wind was low and I sat out on the patio and painted on my new picture. I have started and completed several paintings this year. I will have many paintings to sell when I get back to Texas. 
Today we are going to have a rain free morning so once again I will sit outdoors and work on a painting. We will take our morning walk about 9:00 am and then catch some lunch. 
All is good in our world today...

Trip to the Arkansas River and Buena Vista Colorado

Found this trail that went along the river

The river was running fast after all the rain we have had

This is the trail on the other side of the river

We just up and decided to head off to see Buena Vista today. Sherri packed a picnic lunch and we were off. Becky and Rick went with us. They too packed a lunch and pilled into truck...we were off a 10:00 am.
The ride there took about 2 1/2 hours but it did not seem long due to all the beautiful scenery we had to look at on the way.
We stopped at the summit of Poncha Pass. Took some pictures and then we were off once again. This is a long down hill pass about 7 miles of 6% grades. Not one you would really want to pull your RV down.
I seem to be having some problems with my program here so I will 
cut this off here and post some pictures of our journey...

Fishing at Big Meadow

Yesterday we took off and went fishing at one of the reservoirs near here. We had planned on taking the boat but the weather was once again questionable so we decided to just fish from the bank.
We did not have much luck so we decided to head over to Beaver Creek and see if we could do much better. I caught on trout and that was it.
We had fun seeing new sights along the way and enjoying the wonderful views! We will being headed back soon...

Facebook about to get to me.

I love to read Facebook and see what my family and friends are doing. The one thing that I don't want to see is all the political hatred that is on there! It is getting sad to read all the hate filled post that these organizations are posting on Facebook! I don't want to know what these moronic actors have to say about politics! Who do they think they are trying to tell people what to think when their solution to things they don't like is to leave the country. That really goes to show their maturity. I'll take my toys and go home!
I spent most of this rainy morning blocking all these political post off my page. I really have all I can stomach about politics. Here we are needing things done in Washington and all they want to do is impeach the President when we need to impeach Congress! If my department at work had done what Congress has done I would have had to fire everyone of them.
For some reason we think the President has the power to turn this country around. We did not pass political science or maybe we did not take it. 
One thing that we must understand is that our problem lies in the Congress. They go up there...they camp out...make millions of dollars and then we pay them more money to retire. What is wrong with this picture? 
I don't care if you are Dem or Rep...We have a do nothing bunch of thieves up there taking our hard earned money and using it to benefit their agenda. We need to get past this replace the President mentality and look to replacing these slugs on the hill.
That is all I have to say about that...

Taxes and truck re-call in Alamosa

Here we are at Beaver Lake

We are filing our amended tax return today and I have to take the truck by to have a re-call done. Not sure what the re-call is all about we did not get the paperwork up here. My SIL told me that it had come in the mail at the lake. She said it had to do with restraints? Not sure what that is.
Anyway we have to head out to Alamosa to get that done and my taxes. What a fund day this will be...I sure would rather be fishing.
Yesterday we drove up the mountain to Beaver Lake and checked out the surroundings. On the way up there we stopped by the Christian Youth Camp. I got some literature on the curriculum that they have there. It sounds like a great place for Kris to spend some time with kids his age.
This will be something he can look forward to for next year. With the camp and VBS he should have plenty to do in July.
Back to the lake...it was really nice. It has a boat ramp so we can put the boat in. There are picnic tables down by the water and we can fish from the bank too. This will be a good place to spend the mornings before the rain starts.
I will have pictures on my next post of our day on the lake...
