Holy Crap Batman it is cold !

Sunday 19 January 2020

   Woke up to that familiar pitter patter on the roof.   As you can imagine Rudy stayed in bed until a break in rain around 10am.  The rain continued on and off all day.  We went to town mostly for something to do.  First was the drug store then the grocery store then a drive around town stopped at Norman's Produce for some fresh strawberries.  Back to the camper as the rain let up, so Diane decided to go for a walk.  She was just about done with her walk when the rain started coming down fairly steady.  I drove around looking for her but she had ducked into a pavilion for cover.  As it turned out she was very close to the Moho and walked back as I drove around the base looking for her.  Finally she called me to let me know she was home,  all ended well.  We were both home safe and not so dry. Rudy was a little upset because he got wet walking to and from the truck.  The rain

Even on the gray days

it's still a beautiful view!!

quit and I grilled Hog Maw sausages on the grill and shortly there after Rudy forgot he was mad.

   Up this morning to much cooler temps.  38 when Rudy and I went for our walk.  I guess we were liking those 60 degree morning.  After a quick breakfast, load of laundry washed, hung outside, shower scrubbed and showers we were on our way to town.  First was the all important stop for lunch.  A place called Crabby Ben's the food was very good I had grilled shrimp and Diane had blackened fish sandwich.   The restaurant itself was not so nice, looked like an old fast food place about half fixed up and in a poorer section of town, but the food was really good but I don't think we will go back.  Next we went to see an older Moho for sale..... pictures made it look not so bad on the internet but in real life it was bad we were in and out in less than 5 minutes.  We stopped at a picture framing place and stopped at the Restore store to pick up a shelf we saw earlier and as our luck goes it was closed.

Back home I went for a bike ride(into a strong wind) while Diane took down laundry and walked Rudy. Leftovers for dinner and we called it a day.

   After two weeks of temps in the high 70's even low 80's reality settles back in.  It was 30 when Rudy and went for a walk this morning and I had to drag him down the steps.  Very strong wind

Mackie's Munchies....

Great Food!!

today, the bikes blew over and there was little stuff blowing all around the campground.  We head back to the Restore store and guess what a little hand written note on the gate says 'Brad and Diane we are closed again today' open tomorrow.  Well it wasn't addressed to us but it is starting to seem like it.  So we went to two more thrift stores and an antique store.  Made a few purchases before heading across the street to Mackie's Munchie's for lunch. Another hole in wall at a strip mall but food was great. I had "Effin Jambalaya" (Etouffee and Jambalaya mixed) and Diane had Crawfish Etouffee.  We stopped at Lowe's on the way back for a new grill and made it back by 3:30.   A long walk for Diane and tonight I got Rudy duty.   Looks like a salad with leftover chicken on it for dinner.

    A little warmer this morning in the 40's but still very windy.    What a change in the weather I want our 70 plus degree days back. Today I had one job and that was to research and schedule to get new tires for the RV.  While I did that Diane went to town,  Ace hardware, Bealls clothing, grocery store

A Lotus shopping at Auto Zone,

it was just sooooo wrong!! 

and wine store.  Diane returned and I was still working on the tires with no end in sight.  She took her walk came back walked Rudy then made meatloaf and all the fixing for dinner and it was great.  I ate to much.  In end we went to bed with full bellies but no tires for the RV.
