Last Visits in Dillsburg!!

 Saturday 24 April 2021

     We finished getting everything organized around the camper after the long day of travel yesterday (it was almost a half hour drive).   Dave and Julie came for dinner and stayed for a while. We started off sitting by the fire but the rain chased us in before to long.  I still managed to cook burgers on the grill but we had to eat inside.  It was a really nice visit, we chatted for some time and shared some wine.

   Not much happening today.  We had diner with the Shirks  probably the last for this trip.  A wonderful meal of scallops and veggies done in the oven.  Oh Yum!  A great visit and yes it was, once again, after dark when we got home.

   One more trip to the Insurance lady I think we have it all figured out now.  Diane worked  around the camper.  I took the truck over to L B Smith ford to finally fix the check engine light.  Diane picked me up in Mel's car, it has been a while since I crammed my self into a small car but it saved us from dropping it off in the morning.

   I dropped Diane off at Rite Aid to meet Lynne for a day of shopping and hanging out.  I went to the storage unit to pick up flash lights and other things we left there. It wasn't but 9:30 when they called to tell us the truck was finished. I realized I could spare myself to agony of getting in and out of the midget car by getting the truck now and so I was off to LB Smith's.  Back in the truck I stopped at the tree farm talked to Mark and Norman for awhile (more like a hour or so).  Mark said he could use the vise I've been toting around for years so back to the storage unit one more trip.  The vise is heavy so I opened the tail gate, unlocked the storage unit, propped open the entry door preparing for a one grunt trip to the truck.  As I walked in to get the vise guess what was in my way......the rifles I sat them in the hallway this morning.  Yep they sat in the hallway all day.  I was lucky.  I loaded up the vise and checked the hallway and storage lock like six times.
   Meanwhile Diane and Lynne had a great day of shopping hitting a dozen or more stores and of course a stop at Starbucks.  Diane had a great time and we ended up with new dining room chairs.

   Well now we were up showered dress and ready to go for breakfast by 9am.  We walked into Brothers restaurant to meet Norm and Pat.  They were just finishing when we sat down but they stayed and we all chatted while we ate and for a while after we were done. Diane went over to Lynne's for our last mail pick up before we leave.

Thursday 29 April 2021

    We had breakfast and Diane was off and running well just to the laundromat to wash the big bed spreads they just don't fit in our machine.  Rudy and I piddled around the camper most of the morning.  After lunch we headed over to visit with Bev one more time before we leave.  We talked and reminisced for a couple of hours and we all had a nice visit. Back to the Moho a nice walk for Rudy then burgers on the grill and cleaned up the outside preparing for some very high wind tomorrow.

Friday 30 April 2021

   Holy crap hope we don't blow away.  Woke up several times last night with the camper rocking and it just got worse today the wind gusts must have been close 40mph.  Diane went for a final run to the storage unit, Mel's and the grocery store. The wind was so bad and for the first time ever it blew our satellite dish over and broke the co-ax connector.  We did our best to pack up the place for tomorrows trip but every so often you  had to come in out of the wind.  Folding up our patio rug was a challenge even with two of us it was hard to hold on to, we would pick it up it and it wanted to take off like a giant kite.  We finally quit for the day, I'll just finish it up in the morning.
