Miscellaneous Travels with Red and Wathada

Here are some pictures from other trips Mom and Dad took.

I don't know where they were or what was the occasion for these pictures. Looks like they took the camper, but are all dressed up for something. I have some pictures of a wedding they attended, for some people that I don't recognize. This might have been on that trip...?

These pictures are of Mom's cousin Buck and his wife Judy and two of their children (Tracy and Tammy, I believe) at the Queen Mary.

These are pictures of a friend of my mother's from her junior high school days. Peggy's family moved away and they vowed to stay in touch. Mom wrote a whole bunch of letters, and she received several letters from Peggy -- always asking why she didn't write back! ... Years later, Mom decided to try to find Peggy (using the sleuthing skills she developed while researching family history). It was a long hard effort, but she did FINALLY track her down. It's still a mystery why Peggy never received any of Mom's letters. They were sent to the correct address, that has been confirmed. Peggy thinks her parents, or maybe her brother, discarded the letters for some reason. (People can do strange things for inscrutable reasons.) Anyway -- Mom and Dad made a trip to Tennessee to visit Peggy and her husband in 2005, and these pictures are from that trip.

  1. What a woe that Peggy didn't get to read Wathada's letters!
