Mexican times two…
Today we decided we needed a Mexican fix, and we got it, twice!
For lunch we headed over to El Camino Real, a nearby place that we really like. And, as usual it was great.
Coming home we stopped off at an Ace Hardware to pick up some plumber’s putty to use in installing the new faucet in the bathroom.
Passing a Dairy Queen, we dropped in for a Pumpkin Pie Blizzard. Mmmmmm !!!
When we got back to the rig, we had an email from Nick Russell. We had invited him out to dinner several days ago to celebrate his birthday. He’d ask to put it off a couple of days as he’s trying to get the latest issue of his Gypsy Journal RV Newspaper out. He was now caught up enough to take a break. So we made a date for 5 pm.
I worked on the faucet for a while, trying to get the old one out. These things are only suppose to be tightened by hand, but it always seems like they use big, honkin’ wrenches on them.
I haven’t been able to find my basin wrench, but before buying another one, I want to try my strap wrench. But it’s down in a bay somewhere, and I felt a nap coming on.
Nap time over, it was time to pick up Nick and Terry. Lucky for us, Nick had decided he wanted to go to El Marguey, our other favorite Mexican place here in Elkhart.
We had a great time talking about our many adventures, and recommending places to each other. Hopefully we’ll be able to do it again before we go our separate ways around the end of the month.
Good Times…
