Ivoryton, Connecticut Day 9 (GA521)

Mary is no longer available for RV traveling, but we remain good friends.
Because we have 5,000+ postings, I’ve invited her to continue posting entries on this blog.
I’m currently in my 23rd year of full-time RVing and my lifestyle is changing, For more info click Here

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-

The motorhome is parked at Thousand Trails RV resort in Palm Desert, California. I’ll depart from here December 19th.

 

 

 

 

Since my RVing life is changing (see above), I’m starting to re-visit previously visited places. So rather than constantly re-blogging past entries, I’ve decided to do something different.

This entry was posted June 16, 2013…

 

 

 

The motorhome is parked at my son’s home where I’m expected to remain until July 17th visiting with my family.

 

 

Mary has finally returned to her home in California. She has a tentative return-to-me-date of July 16th.

 

 

Yesterday my only grandson Eric, stopped by to visit. He will be 16 on August 11. He is an avid baseball player and aspires to be a catcher in the major leagues of baseball.

In these photos he is showing me his $400 professional-model catchers mitt. He has a very generous mom and dad. He’s very serious about his baseball, hence no smile…

He puts a baseball into the mitt and then wraps it tightly with a belt to help the mitt keep the proper shape…

He stores the mitt in his 2015 high school year graduation bag…

On this particular day I gave him a ride to the baseball field where he was to umpire a little league play-off game. He’s been umpiring for the last three years. He’s a sophomore in high school and at 5’11”, he’s the tallest person in the family…

Way to go, Eric!

 

 

Enjoying visiting family is another joy of the full-timing lifestyle!
