I appreciate the soldiers most and how they went to war so that I could be free -DFREDJH

Im a retired person, and each morn-ing when I get up during spring, summer, and fall, I make myself a cup of coffee, pick up my Bible and my journal, and start my day sitting on my porch, where I soak up the beauty that is my part of America. I listen to the birds sing as I write in the journal. Then, I look across the street at my neighbors beautiful yard and count my blessings that I have wonderful, helpful neighbors. As other neighbors drive by on their way to work, they give me a wave and a smile. I love Americas friendly, helpful people. 0D\WKHDJDOZD\VZDYHDOODFURVVRXUwonderful country!0DU\:HOOVDLG

Helpful Ideas for All Airstreamers JUNE 2015 SIDRA SPIES

Unit 29, Pensacola, FL [email protected]

This recipe was a popular one from the June, 2011 issue. Since it is related to barbecue, it ought to fit in with the Farmington area.

Farmhouse Barbecue MuffinsBruce Levitt,

Former California Unit 12 MemberAn EASY addition to your meal

1 Can refrigerated Buttermilk Biscuits (10 oz)

1 lb lean ground beef C ketchup3 Tbs. brown sugar1 Tbs. cider vinegar tsp chili powder1 C (4 oz) shredded cheddar cheese

Separate dough into 10 biscuits; flatten into 5 inch circles. Press each into the bottom and up the sides of a greased muffin tin. Brown and drain beef. Mix next four ingredients until smooth. Add to meat and mix well. Divide the meat among the muffin cups, using about C for each. Sprinkle each with cheese. Bake at 375 for 18-20 min until golden brown. Cool for 5 min beforeremoving from the pan. Serve hot. 10 servings..

Note: My husband and I travel thru this area each time we head north into Colorado.

Pulling a trailer we have found that the easiest pull is from I-40 N to Hwy 550 which leads you to the rally. Easy pull, no high mountain passes and beautiful scenery through the Apache reservation.

Safety Tips for the Trip to Farmington 1. Check your trailer and tires over thoroughly! Repair and replace if needed.

2. Roads can be bumpy, so tighten up and be sure that your storage and cabinet door locks are tight. Dont forget the refrigerator door! 3. Check your air conditioner in both your car and camper. It can be over 100 going and coming. Take AND drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.

4. Take jackets and hats as the weather in the mountains can drop quickly and snow is sometimes possible, especially in the high mountain passes of Colorado. It may be hot during the day, but can get really cold at night out there. (High 30s , and maybe even snow!)

5. Be sure you keep your gas tanks filled as, in places, stations are far apart.

6. ***Take a well stocked first aid kit with you and be sure your medical information is always with you for emergencies. Be sure you have your info and medicines with you!

7. ***Have the numbers for your doctors and family readily available. Just in case!!!

8. Travel or caravan with others, if possible.

There is safety in numbers.

9. Take plenty of pictures, cords for your phone, computer, etc.

10. Enjoy the scenery, make memories, stop and explore, and Have Fun!!!
