About Me
- Terry - June
- Florida, United States
- June and I retired in June, 2004 and travelled for a year on our boat from Lake Michigan to Florida, then North on the East Coast through Canada, back to Southern Lake Michigan. It was the most amazing trip we have ever taken and one that will be tough to beat. We settled in Florida in the fall of 2005. On April 3rd, 2011, we departed in our Motorhome for the "BIG 2011 PLAN" We've now completed an 18,000 mile, 6 month drive from home in Florida to Northern California, North on the Pacific west coast to Seattle. From there to Alaska - with returning stops in Spokane, Washington - Oregon, Yellowstone, and other sites - then to Fort Wayne, Indiana to visit family, then back South to Florida and home. We have now traded in our motor home and purchased a new 5th wheel travel trailer and truck to continue travelling as long as life will allow. We will keep you informed as much as practical on our new site: www.Rainwatertravel.blogspot.com

5/8 Mothers Day Rodeo
Early in our trip June said she wanted to see a Rodeo when we got out West, so today being Mother's day, I surprised her and we went to a Rodeo in Cottonwood, California. We were staying at a really nice RV park in Redding (Mountaingate RV Park) and I decided to buy their local newspaper where I saw an article about the Rodeo in Cottonwood, 18 miles South of the RV park. June thought we were heading out to see some falls, but was delighted when she discovered I had pulled into the parking lot where the Rodeo grounds were located. It was a big event and this was the second day of a two day competition. I'm a little unshure why they call a couple events Bull "Riding" or Bronco "Riding" - most of my pictures were Bull and Bronco 'Falling Off" - Some did stay on though and we had a great time. Stopped for Pizza on the way back to the RV park which we do most Sunday's anyway. Tomorrow we'll continue West and should reach the California, Pacific coast somewhere around Eureka, California by the end of the day.
