Left to right - Jim Stebbins, Patty, Bob FultonWe hosted our 3rd annual Alaska in Arizona BBQ yesterday afternoon, on a picture perfect day, with low 80 degree weather & a slight breeze. There were 10 of us this year, down from the record 17 who attended last year. Jim & Megan drove their explorer down from Las Vegas where their motor home is parked. Ron & Judy drove from their home in Kingman. Dave and Louise parked their motor home at the old WalMart, and drove the jeep up to the house. Bob & Jeanette live about a mile away, here in Lake Havasu City.
All of these friendships began in Skagway, Alaska, where most of us worked for the Corrington Family. Patty and I made the trip north in the four summers of 2004-2007, and all of us continue to be pretty much in agreement, that we thoroughly enjoyed living in that most beautiful little town in Southeast Alaska.

Bob Fulton, and Megan StebbinsPatty and I enjoy hosting this reunion of friends, and providing a venue for all of us to get together, at least once a year. As usual, we had plenty of food, with burgers, chicken, pulled pork, beans, potato salad, and ice cream & brownies for desert. I don't think anyone left hungry. It was a pleasant afternoon, as we all shared many of our experiences from the previous year, and got caught up with everything else.
Louise Hawkins (David was on the phone), & Jeanette FultonDavid & Louise just purchased another Jeep Wrangler, set up for serious off road travel, and were on their way to meet some friends in Laughlin, NV. They spend most of the winter on their RV lot in the Phoenix area, and will be traveling toward the east coast in a few weeks.
Jim & Megan have their motor home parked at the Thousand Trails in Las Vegas, and will be heading east in early April, where they have accepted summer jobs at Dollywood in TN.
Bob & Jeanette spend the winters in their home here in Lake Havasu, and they will be leaving for Cody, WY in about a month, where they will be working this summer.
Ron & Judy don't currently have an RV, and are year around residents in Kingman. Judy works for a local bank, and Ron works at the county offices.

Ron and Judy EllstromToday's weather forecast is for light winds, and more 80 degree weather, so, after almost a week in Yuma, it's time to jump in the boat, and spend some time on the water. Bob/Jeanette & Ron/Judy may be joining us, as spring break is starting to gain momentum, and the sights and sounds around the London Bridge are starting to get more & more entertaining.
