It has come to my attention…

September 13, 2021 By Tamera Alexander

It has come to my attention that one Deborah Raney was scheduled to share a post today. However, the day has come (and nearly gone) and—

I see no post.

I see no pictures.

I see no apology.

I see nothing!

And you know why??

Because Deb and her husband Ken are currently traipsing all around the country on a grand national park adventure! Now seriously, is that any excuse to not post? To not invite us with her on that trip?

Frankly, I’m appalled and not just a little miffed. So here’s my suggestion…

Let’s all go pile in with them virtually into their lovely little RV. Let’s crowd ’em up and go along with them to see these glorious sights. And they ARE glorious!

If you haven’t seen any of their pictures yet, here’s a sampling…

And I’m sorry, but sunglasses or no, I’m not seeing a single ounce of remorse on her pretty little face! Unbelievable.

So join me and let’s go right now and knock on the door of their RV before they turn in for the night, the little-happy-national-park-traipsing-stinkers! ; )

Join Ken and Deb’s National Park Grand Adventure (whether we were invited or not!) 🙂

    Ha ha ha! Love this. Deb’s MIA for the best of reasons. I’ll be banging on her camper door shortly.

    • Tamera Alexander says

      September 14, 2021 at 3:18 pm

      Knock loudly. Especially if they’re asleep.

    I love to read of the friendship among you friends. I love reading the books of all of you. I have been following Deborah and Ken on Facebook. We have been to some of the places she is showing but not all the details at the parks. Enjoying their journey!

    This post made me laugh! Glad Tammy saved the day with her post, too. I hope the breakfast went well. Can I come over for some hot chocolate? (That is if Ken will share.) 😉😁 I can bring popcorn!

    This post made me smile.😊 You have a good sense of humor and a knack for making me “see” what’s happening in your story (like knocking on the RV door,etc.)
