This is a short video showing my (a 68 year old Grandma) journey from July 19, 2023 till March 30, 2024 to learn how to do pull-ups. In that same time frame I worked out with Autumn Calabrese doing 21 day fix and 80 Day Obsession streaming it over my TV. My last 4 pull-ups at one time were at the end of that 3 month long workout of 80 Day Obsession along with a lot of hard work on the pull-up bar.

Joseph & I play with our Christmas Train and remote helicopter New Years Eve (12-31-23) before we pack the train away that's been under our tree. I run the train and video, and Joe is in charge of the remote helicopter.

August 30th Joseph & I hit the Lake to jet ski & paddle board. Recently I purchased a paddle board. Lucky for us it's inflatable. After some experimenting a bit, we figured out we could tie the board to the back of the jet ski and take it down into the canyon. Hot days, cool water, beautiful scenery, and fresh air. Love seeing the Herons and Mt. Sheep. Took much more balance and leg muscles than I thought, but after a couple of trips, I got it figured out. :D Joseph did too!

We travel Utah to visit our daughter and her family. We hike Logan Canyon at Spring Hollow, check into Quality Inn hotel, visit a farm, have an outing at Tony Grove Lake, and visit with the fam at their home.

This video is about touring Krabi, at the end of our mission, on our way home to Phoenix, Arizona. Kunihiro Quincy was our Dive Guide for all the dives we went on. The drone footage in the video is complements of a tour acquaintance that was kind enough to share it with us. The elephant event contact on Instagram is Krabi_ech at the Elephant Care House in Railay.

Joseph & I stay at our son's place before heading home to AZ. While there we join in on Kaylee's B-day Party, visit my good friends Gini & Mitch, and my cousins Denise & Joneel. We also drove out to see Elexis again as well as Zach on Sunday after attending church with Nicole & the kids.

We travel to Idaho to visit several daughters and their families. Lots of fun times with the grandkids. Places we went were the Idaho Falls Zoo, Blacktail Lake, & Yellowstone Nat Park.

Along our Kid Tour we stop in and visit Merrill's in Utah. Lots of fun including a pony ride at the park.

Joseph installed patio misters at our Arizona home. Then my daughter comes to visit, jet ski, exercise, hot tub and just spend a relaxing few days before she starts back to her teaching Special Ed Pre-school. We spend time with my two brothers and family-time dinners.

Second child we visit on our Summer Kid Tour, our Eldest Son in Utah.

On our Kid Tour, during July, 2023, we visit Elixis, our Granddaughter, daughter of my eldest daughter, Sandra. I take her my massage table as she is interested in learning massage therapy. She collects elephants, so I gift her an elephant I found during our visit in Thailand. She gives us a tour of their place and introduces us to her cat. Then we go visit our son Kevin in Salt Lake City. We grab lunch at Costa Vida then do some hiking in Big Cottonwood Canyon.

June 26th, 2023, Son Daniel brings the Fam to Arizona to visit on their way up to the Grand Canyon & Idaho. He brought his new truck and pull-behind camper-trailer. We check it out. We in invite my Bro and his wife over for dinner and celebrate my birthday a little late with cake & ice cream. :D

We stop in Wyoming for the 4th of July to spend with our daughter and her family during our Kid Tour. Boating, fireworks, chickens, swimming. . . what a hoot! Boating at Big Elk, Palisades.

Alaska 10 Day Double Denali CruiseTour, June 8th to June 18th, 2023.

Boarded the Holland America cruise ship and rode the inside passage to Vancouver stopping at Hubbard Glacier, Glacier Nat. Park, Skagway, Juneau, & Ketchikan, then flew home to Arizona.

90 year old Madelyn, bed & wheelchair bound, comes to visit her children at our home. An artist, pianist and organist, she loves being around the fam while we play music she knows. Disclaimer: I am a lousy pianist!! But we sure had fun :D

My mother, Madelyn, is bed & wheelchair bound. We had her transported to our home for my Birthday-Full Moon-Bon Voyage Party. We decorated cupcakes and had a little family jam session with our cello, flute and guitar. We are amateurs . . . no judging please :D No music or practice was had, but we sure had fun!

I take a minute to snorkel the Blue Hole in Kosrae. It was in the morning while the tide was higher, but the visibility was terrible! There was some fun fish to see, not much coral, and they say there are rays that hang out there. I sure didn't see any. I tried to make this short video as good as possible . . . not my best project, that's for sure. The best thing from this is the $2.00 I found at the bottom in the sand that I had to dive down to get.

Daughter & husband come to visit us here in Arizona :D
