Kae & Ang & Angie - Arkansas!!! YAY!!!

6 November - 10 November 2011 -  I "met" Kae over 10 years ago through Jack - a mutual friend. Unfortunately it was only on-line but finally we have met for real!!!  Kae lives in a log cabin in Arkansas with husband Ang & daughter Angie. We all got on like a house on fire - it was like we have known each other all our lives.

Me & Kae

Ang teaching Lee to shoot

Fort Holman :)

Kae

We had a great time - Ang taught Lee how to shoot an AK47 and a handgun - made an awful lot of noise!!
We rode ATV's - Ang & Kae's property is about 6 acres - and we watched the deer grazing in the backyard. The property is absolutely beautiful and is so peaceful. Ang built a big bonfire (using a flame thrower to light it lol). He also cooked the biggest and best Nebraska steak you could imagine. Kae followed up with a scrumptious pot roast and they both score equal first with Robby's ribs. Don't ask about Kae's fried eggs though!....Just kidding Kae - they were great :)

Most of the time the weather was perfect but we did have a tornado alert and for a while we thought we might be off to Oz with Toto but instead we got 3 inches of rain and lots of thunder and lightning. Woke up this  morning to -2 Centigrade - bloody cold - car windscreens were covered in ice. I guess I better get used to the cold before Iceland and UK.

We were so sad to leave Kae & Ang today - love them to bits and I hope I may be able to get back again before my travels are over. Their home is idyllic and I could sit on their front porch drinking coffee forever. Miss you already :(
