I hate to complain, but it has been cool (low 50's) and windy and it looks like there is no end in the near future. So today was a load of laundry then a drive around to the other CG's to drop off fliers for the dog stroller. It was a tough day, there was a guy that collapsed on the shuffle board court and until we had to pass him again they were performing CPR and the ambulance was on it's way in....shook us up a little. Then off to the gas station where we watched a guy hit a barrier, then back up and drive off, broken lights and all....he never stopped. We had a big lunch at the Odd Cup'les Café, late, so dinner was just snacking.
Saturday we were so tired of sitting around the CG we headed up to Ocala to a small RV show and strolled around that until the rain chased us out. We did find a RV we really liked, it was a Holiday Rambler Navigator XE 35B. It is a new floor plan and the dealer didn't even have a brochure but we were wet so we left. We decided to take the back roads home and ended up finding a Winery.....made plans to stop back and check it out another time, we had just got coffee and were cold and wet, so home we headed. Brad managed to cook a couple of boneless chicken thighs on the grill and we just had that over a salad for dinner.
Sunday was another load of laundry (yes, a small washer so I do a load a day and hang it out). We had a quick breakfast then I put Chili in the crock pot. I headed up to play Bingo while Brad headed over to Len's to work on the Moho compartment he tore apart. He got home in time for happy hour, then it was just Chili for dinner while we watch the Super Bowl. I think we lasted until half time, but then ended up turning something else on the TV. We did check back from time to time and were glad Denver won.
Monday was phone call day, Ford to get some work done on the truck, Marathon to cancel our Keys camp site, the Post Office to have them send us our mail, a call from Jen a call to Shari and a text from the bike shop. Brad did manage to make breakfast on the grill in between the calls, then we headed to Wildwood to get my bike and a hair cut for Brad (I think I'll go back for a Mani-Pedi). After that a very late luck at the Oak Wood Express (like 3:00) so dinner was just some cheese and crackers...and a call from Mel to end the evening. I did back 2 batches of brownies to take to the Ladies Tea on Tuesday.
Tuesday a call from Marathon, cancelation processed yea. I went to the Ladies Tea and Fashion Show, not to bad. I got back, no sign of Brad, so I called on his phone and it rang in the camper.....not too bad, but after 2 hours, I was just a little irritated. He finally came home, I fussed a little then on we went. We both fussed about the wind and cool weather and hid-out inside, except for taking Rudy for his walks. We had left over Chili for dinner then up to play Bingo with Marlene and Annette....none of us won, but we did entertain ourselves for the evening. Back home, a little TV and then off to bed.
Wednesday the CG had a breakfast and then a talk/discussion with the new owners about all the changes they are planning to make.....to make a long story short, just like everybody else, they want long term campers (6 months or longer) and not too worried about us 3 month people. We are still welcome, but that might be coming to an end....oh well, on to a new destination. After breakfast I headed up to the Stover's Candy store with Jim and Annette, while Brad headed up to the car dealer to get some work done on the truck. Needless to say, I was home way before him, hung out laundry, did some chores around the camper, walked Rudy and fielded a bunch of call from Brad. After his wait, he had new wipers and another appointment to get some of the other things fixed...what a long day. Our high today was only in the low 50's with about 25 mph winds, so once again it is a no happy hour night and hide inside kind of day......I'm tired of these.
Brad, Diane and Rudy
