Car d'alene show time./ funny farm/l Nevada/ friends in LA

---

June trip has been a fine ride. flew to L.A.. Next day went to NV.. I managed not to lose a penny. Saw neieces and great nieces in Henderson ,Nv. discouvered a new town called Laughlin, NV. which was right on the Colorado river. Was very nice. Back to L.A and onto the Great Northwest. Tacoma for very short visit and then onto the great Car D'Alene car show and back to the funny farm. Where things were hecked and funny and exciting all rolled into a vacation. We had a wopper of a night on Saturday 17th. My nephew Brett dragged his Jenny to the top of the funny farm hill and proposed to her. so big wedding in the making for future. That should be really fun. just leave it to Brett et Jenny and it will be a blast.

me et my friend Rita
Me et Rita met in the bowling alley way back in 75 or 76 in east L.A... We became friends over the Phrase, " gimme chivas regal over crash ice ", I was a bartending and she serving the cocktails. I went from server to bartender because the recent hired bartender did,nt know what a Chivas Regal over crash ice was???? The by gone days. Then we were smaller all over as well. something like the ladies on each side of us. Only kidding..Hahahahaha

Deep Fried Twinkie.
Surely can live with out this. I did have one bite. All I can see and feel after one bite is my heart clogging up. That delicacy must soak up about a ton of hot oil to get it krispy. Only in the U.S. of A. This is Fremont of Las Vegas.

A treasured moment with selena and family and firends
Thanks to my friends for taking the time to take me to see my nieces. we do not see each other often. If it's only for a qiuck hello it's worth the time to see distance family.

Love this Junk
I love all this junk. it's time that stood still to be never moved again. i wonder what happened to all the other stuff that was in this little storage barn that was once over this junk. it fell apart after the great Ice strom. there were some neat things in there. Like a carriage a trailer etc..

Weathered and wornen out wood.
Love the spot this trailer decided to stay. It's been here for ages.

A deluxe out house. Invite your friends, have a seat!
i do not know what my grand father was thinking when he erected this house. Must have had a great sense of humor. don't laugh to much we still use this..
