We're back!

Hi,
For my first post , I wanted to let you know that we are back from our trip - early!
We traveled to Phoenix, Az so Tom and Brett could go to the NASCAR race, a first for both of them. Tom and I took our travel trailer and stayed in the RV area at the race track. Jenn and Brett drove down arriving on Friday and stayed at a hotel. Tom and Brett decided to go to the nationwide series race on friday evening. The concensus was that it will never be the same watching it on TV again. (and this wasn't even the Sprint Cup!!) Tom said there is just nothing like the smell of burning rubber and brakes and gasoline (it's definately a guy thing). The Sprint Cup of course was even better except for the crowds, they were massive. After the races we went to Tucson, to visit family and stayed 4 days. It was hot!!! Then we traveled to Colorado to visit more family and stayed 2 days. Our plan was to go east and north from there to Michigan to visit a friend. However the weather was not very cooperative, and rather than take a chance of getting caught in winds, tornado's or flooding we just decided to return home. Our trip was uneventful up to this point, but on the way home we had a tire blowout. It did a bit of damage to the trailer so it is now in the repair shop. I am glad it happened on the way home, it made a mess.
We are planning to finish our trip in about a month, going to Michigan and seeing sites on the way (or way back). Actually this way we will have a longer vacation than if we had done it all at once.

Hi everyone,
Thanks for visiting my new blog. It is a place where I hope to share my life and my creations with my friends. It will probably take me a while to figure out how to do this, so bear with me. If all goes well I hope to share scrapbooking and stamping ideas for inspiration and ideas. And if I really learn to manage this blog, maybe even some how-to's.
However for those of you less creative people I will also be writing about the interesting ventures in my life. I will share the trips and vacations as well as the grandchildren and whatever else I can find to bore you with.
So I hope you will take the time to read my blog and send me a comment or two.
Thanks again for visiting Carrie's Corner
