Don Campbell thinks it’s time to put away the Ski-doo .

Snowmobile Season is over - Although the Gaylord ice tree still has a trace of ice at the bottom left , it should be gone by this weekend.
Todays picture shows me getting ready to raise the Skidoo up in the air and back the trailer under it .
Car Semi Accident - I was sitting at the stop light this afternoon and waiting for a Semi tractor trailer to make a left turn and it ran over the front corner of a new jeep , OUCH ! I always wondered if that happens when i see people pull so far into the intersection . Although the trucker should have seen he was going to hit the Jeep and stopped , and thankfully no-one was injured ,
House Painting - Deb is painting the second coat of paint on the back of the house.
Hey Deb !, What’s for Supper ? Chicken fried rice, yum !
Deb started weight watchers yesterday so I am going to try to add my points each day too as she does. We are back to walking and I am back walking and running again . Losing weight is not so much about exercise as it is eating. It’s been proven no exercise is needed to lose weight , just small portions and smart choices and a daily record not exceeding 1500 to 2000 calories.
We have tried so many times and we will not give up this year either , so off we go again to try again at losing weight, ha,ha.
P&H 5700 Mining Machines- I have the first track frame close to being roughed in. I should get it to that point tomorrow night and then I will start on the parts for the second track frame.
Have a great Thurs. !!

Todays picture shows Nicole and me enjoying a moment on one of our camping trips with Deb.
OLD PICTURES- My folks health is not so good and we are taking a break from toy building and spending time with them.
I was posting old pictures instead of posting nothing, but it seems unaceptable to some viewers and I understand that.
So I am taking a break from the webpage as not to frustrate anyone,
Spending time with my folks reminds me to live like I am dying and not take today for granted.
Ever since my sister was killed I never took life for granted. But I am now reminded again to enjoy each day to it’s fullest.
Enjoying time with my folks is my first priority right now.
Hope you all understand.
Have a great weekend !!!!!

Gaylord Couple makes it 37 years of Marriage. Don and Debbie Campbell beat the odds !!

37th Wedding Anniversary - Todays picture was taken 37 years ago. I had just returned from getting drafted into the Army and I was home on leave from Basic Training. Not knowing if I would be going to Viet-Nam Deb and I wanted to get married. We drove to Gaylord, Michigan and tryed getting married at a church but the preacher would not marry us. So the next day we decided to get married at the Gaylord Courthouse. It was bittersweet as we both knew I may have to go to Viet-Nam. Fortunately that never happened and I did return from the Army to live a fun life with Deb and Nicole. My mom had a nice little reception and a nice cake made by her friend Sandy.
Deb is my best friend and she is the best wife and mom I could have ever asked for.
Have a great Tues. with the ones you love !!
