Rutley Cousin


Series 2 

We drove from Quartzsite to Hope AZ for a visit with my first cousin, Judi (Dextrase) and her husband, Hershel Eno. They are from near Gull Lake, Alberta where they live on their son's acreage. They own a RV in Hope AZ so they can spend their winters.

Judi (Dextrase) is my first cousin on mom's side, Aunt Evelyn's daughter. The last time I saw Judi was at Mom's funeral in 1989, so it was good to be able to get to know her on a one to one basis.

She expressed her fond memories of visiting the Rutley cousins after her mother passed away when she was 9 years old. Saskatchewan has very special memories for her. Not having a mother she said she was raised by so many mothers during her visits. She brought me up to date on some of my other Rutley cousins.




We had lunch with Hershel and her at their trailer. Then Hershel gave us a tour of the area around here. (See details on www.lorrandrvers.blogspot.com)

We returned back in Hope by sunset, 4:45 pm. Judi served us home-made lemon pie, she made from the lemons picked off the trees near their trailer.

We left for home viewing the sunset as we drove west to Quartzsite. It was a good visit and tour. We invited them to come for lunch before we leave here.
