Trip to KY

Alright! So we went to KY to the Houseboat Expo! It's suppose to be the LARGEST houseboat show in the world! To say that I was not impressed is a little contradicting. The boats that were there where very impressive and it only makes me want to get a house boat even more! BUT......there where only 15 boats there????? What is up with that? I just don't get it! We took that many ourselves to our show here in Knoxville. Now granted, ours are not houseboats.....but still! The manufacturer we went to see...only took one boat! The good news it that we did find one that we REALLY liked and we had a great trip. We could see Churchill Downs from our hotel window and got to see some snow! It was not a wasted trip but I don't plan on going back to the expo next year. I do have say that Cara is an excellent traveler! I guess since we have always taken her anywhere and everywhere she's just use to it! As long as she's got her movies, "colors"(crayons/markers), and some snacks......she's good to go!

first time

OK! So here goes, I finally decided to create a blog page for my family! So, I'm still learning the ropes, but I think it's a great way to keep in touch with everyone and what's going on! So what's going on we us right now????? We just finished up a GREAT and successful Boat Show here in Knoxville. So, in my opinion, the economy is not all doom and gloom! I'm sure it is worse in other areas but I think if we want things to get better....WE have to make things happen! I wish more people could be positive.....I think that's why people like dealing with us! My husband and I are VERY postive people and people enjoy that. This weekend we are going on a "mini" trip! We are going to KY to the Houseboat show! As most of you know, my husband and I have a thing for ALL boats! We got free tickets so we are going to check them out! It will be fun and I know Cara will enjoy it. Who knows.....maybe we'll pick up a line and start selling some????? Any input on house boats???? Anyway, I hope everyone has a GREAT weekend.
