We are Terry & Cathye Kinkelaar. If you've followed my blog in the past, you know that Lydia, my beautiful wife of 52 years, and I made the lifestyle choice to move to Oregon in 2017. You've seen my posts about losing her in May 2020 to cancer. Although I was left alone, I am pleased to say that I have found happiness again. In April 2021, I met Cathye, who also lost her longtime husband in 2020. Well, we fell in love and were married in April 2022. So, if folks are still interested, I will continue to post here as we move forward with our lives and adventures!

Sunday thru Wednesday……

Sorry this is all in one big note but internet is really slow here…..

The week has been a lot of fun.  There are 6 rigs in camp here at June Lake RV Park.  Everyone arrived with no problems and got set up in their spaces.  The weather is great. We are supposed to get some changes in the next few days but right now it’s perfect!  Lydia and I along with Ed and Betty had planned to provide dinner for the rest of the rigs coming in on Sunday.  Lydia fixed jambalaya and it was tasty! Terry and Ed put Ed’s portaboat together and got it in the water at Gull Lake.  Later they would take it out and catch three fish.  We are planning a fish fry on Friday and these will go into the freezer for that. 

Monday found the guys heading off in different directions.  Most of us went to Lundy Lake while Ed and Mark hit Gull.  The day turned out productive as Lundy produced 14 fish and Gull 10.  We chose Tiger Bar as the restaurant of choice and had a nice meal.  We went back to camp and made a fire and sat out for a while and made plans for tomorrow.

Tuesday the guys went to Grant Lake.  Now this was a real road trip!  Paul and Bill drove the off road trail to get us around to the back side of the lake.  Fishing was real slow with only Ed and Paul catching a couple. Tonight was a planned meal from one of the teams.  We had assigned 3 couples on a team to make one meal each on Tuesday and Thursday. Tonight we had tacos and all the fixins which were yummy!  One glitch today – Rick and Janie discovered that their refrigerator was giving a low dc warning so they called a mobile tech to check it out.  He set up a visit but wasn't able to get out today.


Wednesday was a day off for most of the fisherman.  We planned a trip to go to Mammoth Mountain and maybe up to Devil’s Postpile. We waited for Rick’s guy to show up and a call told us he wouldn't make it today either. So we were free and headed out to explore the area.  Bill and Treasa drove by themselves and we gave Rick and Janie the two dollar tour of Mammoth and the surrounding area.  Then we headed to Devil’s Postpile. We had never been here before as the roads were always closed.  We got in this time and drove to the trailhead.  Terry and Rick walked all the way in and Lydia and Janie waited on the trail. It was interesting to see the unusual rock formation. Afterward, we all got back in camp.  Ed had fished Gull and got a limit.
