Thursday 31 December 2020 New Years Eve
Well here I am again over a week behind in the blog. I'm sure I will miss a lot but here goes. We went up to Shari's with some goodies from PA scrapple a whole pan, a couple bags of chips, a few pounds of deer meat and some Christmas gifts we forgot. All the brides maids and other female wedding member were there doing nails and sipping mimosas'. We didn't stay long, a quick chat with Shari and we were on our way. Stopped at camping world and picked up a piston to hold basement door open. That took over a hour lots of workers standing around and only one actually helping customers. I despise the place(except to look at Mohos). We didn't go anywhere for New Years Eve just ordered wings and stayed home.
HAPPY NEW YEAR
Friday 1 January 2021
No hangover for us I was in bed at 10 and Diane came in around 11pm. Are we party people or what. Shari needed a ride to the airport to pick up a rental car for the happy couple. We meet her at 9am and we were off. The short version of the story. We drove around the airport looking for the Alamo car rental including two or three trips through the parking garage. Finally Shari got out to talk to a car return person... third one spoke enough English to tell her she had to go into the airport. We went looking for the cell phone parking lot to make sure she got a car. Once again two trips around the airport in and out of several parking lots before finding the right one. Shari texted she was 21st person in line, so we waited. She finally picked up her car and we went home. That was the short version! Luckily Diane had the pork and sauerkraut in the crock pot. Diane went over to the wedding venue to help decorate, came back to get me about 4 and we both went over. The place is really nice, large parking area with inside and outside facilities. Big day tomorrow.

The Wedding
We had breakfast and got ready for the wedding. Diane wouldn't let me put on my dress shirt until we were ready to walk out the door, she says my reputation for staining a shirt is to great. Off to wedding at 1pm. What a lovely day sunny 75 degrees just perfect. Len, and kids were there and everyone enjoyed being together again. The first(I think) since Shawna's services. A really good time was had by one and all. It was after 8pm until we returned poor Rudy was worried I think.

No time to lollygag . We are leaving tomorrow as are most of the wedding attendees. We started packing Diane did her usual grocery store run. Remember the piston I bought at camping world, the one where I waited forever in line for, the one they looked up... doesn't fit. And I lost one of the clips that hold it on. It may just go back missing a part. Shari called she couldn't make it down to see us but suggested we have breakfast before we all leave tomorrow.

All packed up and rolling by ten. We went down to a restaurant in Bushnell. As we pull up we notice no cars around, yep our luck, closed for maintenance. Back to the truck, called Shari to pick a new spot. We have the Moho and they are towing a uhaul trailer so we need a BIG parking lot. We finally sat down at about 11 o'clock. But we had a nice breakfast talked quite a bit, even out in the parking lot. After several goodbyes we were gone well after 1pm. Good thing we are only driving 100 miles to Camp Blanding in Starke Fl. An uneventful trip, arrived at 3:30pm set up everything before enjoying burgers on the grill with a glass of wine and just unwinding a bit.
