Wrapping up first week at Camp Blanding

Thursday 10 January, 2019

     Up in the morning and I made breakfast for us all.  Threw in a load of laundry then started rearranging my cupboards....it took me all day and I'm still not happy with them. As soon as I opened a cupboard to start, Brad headed outside  and found a job of his own to do.  There was a leak in the
And now we need parts
to put it back together!!
water bin and it was time to fix it.  He gathered most of his tools and took off both plates covering the water pipes to find the leaks.  Leak one fixed...oh a second leak, that got fixed, but the third leak is up the wall in the 1/2 bath, so into the house and out comes the wall.  Now, don't think I took that well, I felt like crying because I'm not sure how or when it's all going to go back together, but the leak does need fixed.  He found the problem but now needs parts to fix it, so the wall stays off and it will be a trip to town tomorrow for parts.  OK, so I got over my feeling and got my stuff all put away, then got things started for dinner.  Brad was out walking Rudy when Bill and Judy stopped to chat, so I went out and joined them.  We sat until we were chilled, they headed home, Brad started the grill to make ham steak and Rudy and I headed inside to warm up.  A nice meal, nice evening and off to bed.

     A quick breakfast then we headed into town, a hair cut for Brad then lunch, I had 2 slices of Pizza and Brad had the Shrimp Arribiato.  After that a walk through town to the Walgreen's for my meds,
A walk by the Lake.
then to the tiny RV store to look for the parts Brad needed and they actually had the parts.  We got our things then headed back to the truck to drop off the stuff and headed back down the street to go to the museum, just our luck, they are closed Friday's....what the heck.  Back to the truck then over to Winn Dixie for the few things we need then a trip back home.  Brad put the parts in, I turned on the water, oops it leaked.  He worked on it a little more, no leak, even after 2 or 3 tests.  The wall is still off with a plan for another test.  After that we did 3 laps around the park with Rudy and 'til we got home I don't think Rudy could have walked another step.  We both showered and had fish and veggies for dinner......yum.

     We had the alarm set so we could go to the Waldo flea market before having lunch with Gabe. 
Waldo's Antique/Flea
Market???
We were awfully slow moving and didn't leave until 10.  But we did make to Waldo 1.5 hours before lunch!.. The flea market was more like a scrap market to the point we wouldn't even go in some areas.  Anyway,  off to lunch with Gabe at Randy's Rib shack.  Just a small roadside place with outdoor seating only but boy was it good food.  We all three shared the rib family meal.  Brad wanted to order a side of grilled shrimp but didn't, good thing.  We couldn't eat it all and Gabe had two or three ribs left to take home.  We had a nice chat about school, his trip the Japan and life in  general  We then headed out to find a geocache but gave up after 20 minutes.  A couple of stops on the way home, then home, a walk for Rudy, a visit with friends and a short bike ride.  After that
The Rib Shack
we just sat by the fire and ended up having hot dogs for dinner, neither of us was very hungry.
