WOW Janet! That is just great that she even wants to go do things. Does she tow the camper or how does she get it to the campground?
I hope we all have her spunk when we're 87 lol! It's nice of that guy helping your Mom out. Do ya think he might have a crush on her?

I don't know if he has a crush or not...and don't ask...lol. He helps other women too, but he is married. She pulls her own 19 foot travel trailer with a large station wagon. I'm glad she can do this, but she's making me a nervous wreck.

Yes...she is living life to the fullest and I'm thrilled, but nervous too. I would never ever tell her she couldn't go camping, she loves it. She won't let anyone else pull the camper for her so as long as she can do it safely....then I'll support her completely.
I would like to call her this morning to see how she did all night, but there isn't good phone reception where she's at. We had such bad storms early this morning, but I'm sure she is fine.

Janet, I agree with everyone else, you have an amazing mother!!! I know you are worried but this is better than her sitting in her house waiting for her phone to ring, remember we talked about that.
Sometimes they are just like our kids and we have to let them go and if they fall down just let them know that we are here to help them get back up. I hope you hear from her soon so you can relax some. sometimes i think this is harder on us then it is them LOL

She is my idol! What a zest for life she has, although she may just give you a nervous breakdown!
Better this way than her laying in bed complaining. That is just as draining, or maybe even worse! My mother was like yours, and when I look back, I am always so glad that she did so much living! She drove my father crazy too!

Janet, I agree with everyone else. This is absolutely fantastic that she can still be so active and independent. Way to go, Mom!!!!!! Awesome!! So glad that you are letting her enjoy herself like this, but do understand that you worry, or are concerned.
