Getting a lot of information on family, places, events and stories. It's been fun Visiting with older and younger family that want to tell on each other, makes for an interesting genealogy history. Finding out we are not a boring family, on all sides it seems.
Headed north, but still in CA. For another month or so.
Loving my phone more and more, it's helping me search, but wanting a tablet that's got a bigger screen will help when i don't have my laptop, maybe after taxes.

I think im back
I think Im back, but not sure. I have to check where I left off. So give me a few days.
I just looked and it has been 2 years. Not sure how often I'll get on here, but we shall see.
Spent the last couple years seeing all my children and grandchildren. Its been good for me. Have lost some family members and a friend or two. Its hard to believe I'm the age I am. Time marches on.
My weather hasn't been too bad the last couple years, tried not be be somewhere that the tempture hasn't gotten too cold, and too hot. Motorhome has been in good running order, just had to replace batteries but that a normal thing. A blowout on my car kaddy, so tires for that and I also got new tires on the RV about a year ago. So all has been well and still don't forsee setteling down to one place, at least not in the near future. So as long as Im healthy and the RV in good condition I will be doing what I have been doing. Maybe seeing some of you in the next year. Happy 2013.

Last Blog
Sorry I haven't written in a while. Sorry to say this will be my last blog... from now on you can see my travel updates on Facebook (one less thing to log onto in my busy life! :). I'll do my best to keep it updated! If you're not already my friend on Facebook, look me up under Carrol Ohlsen (Carrol Avara).
After leaving Kansas, I drove to South Dakota. Got all of my routine medical stuff done (everything is A-OK) - haven't seen the psychiatrist yet though :) - will make that appt. in about 10 years - maybe longer! Got to see family on Garry's side there - always great to see them. Stayed a couple of nights with friends in Nebraska then stopped in Missouri to see a cousin on my mother's side. Traveled to Illinois to see my oldest son and his girlfriend - as well as the grandsons I hung out with this summer again.
The trek to North Carolina was pleasant - smooth with no major problems. Having a terrific time with my daughter and her family in North Carolina. Love getting to spend quality time with the grandson! Shopping, eating, family outings - my daughter has me walking 8 miles/week! Should do more...
Love to all! Hope to see you on Facebook! Check out my FB profile picture soon - you can see my scary Halloween face!

Well its been a month to the day sense I last posted. Been not real busy but a little lax in getting on line to connect with all 4 of you. But with tech. I've been chatten on other media. I left KS the 5th of sept. got to Sioux Falls, SD in one day and was met with family. My brother n law and most of his kids and grandkids were there, due to the holliday weekend. The last time I saw them was a year ago when I went to my sister n laws funeral service.
Had lunch dates almost every day while there to see several people. while there I made phone calls to set up DR. apt's to get my yearly medical stuff done. Got to Prairie Retreat and I had a couple good weather days to go through some of our stuff that has been in storage for 10 years, YES I said 10 years. Had the good luck of setting up for a couple days to get rid of things that was not to be passed to kids or keep. It was wierd going through stuff. Still need to resort and condense small as I can.
Church yesterday was very enlightning. There was a pot luck after and it was good to see the members again. Spent the afternoon calling on some friends that don't go to my Church. Went to see a friend that lost her spouce, my husband's best friend. She is doing as well as she could, busy helping her daughter's family, which includes a brand new baby, which is the circle of life. RIGHT. She is a cutie that's for sure.
Today was the first of Dr. apt's for the week and thing's are good. Sure hope the rest of the apt's go as good. Met a hairdresser while selling stuff and she took more stuff off my hands this afternoon. Every little bit helps with my plan to get rid of everything that's not needed by me or my kids. Well that's about all for now, maybe will try to get back again sooner than a month. C

Hello, Yes I am still alive and breathing. Have been really busy this last 6 weeks. Had a great time with the grandsons. All too soon I had to return them back to ILL. to start school. I was thinking of keeping them and doin charter school, but I'm not smart enough.. Haven't done alot of anything else, just hanging out with my two son's, after they get off work and just hanging on the weekends that they don't have to work.
Having some motor home problems again. This time its the surge protector, not letting anything through, which is the purpose of the protector. Well its makin noises that its not sapose to.
Before taking the boys back, they did get to ride on a combine with a cuzzin, that showed them how it works and even tried to show them how to make wheat gum. They didn't get to far, they said they just swallowed it before it got chewee...
Well not much else so will close the hope all is well with everyone. Lov C
