Happy Birthday…

First off I want to wish my beautiful bride a very very Happy Birthday!

We left the rig about 10 am to go to breakfast at Cracker Barrel.  Jan really likes their blueberry pancakes.

After breakfast we drove over to M & M Fabricators to check out the route.  We’re taking the rig over there tomorrow morning to have the new shocks put on and I wanted to be sure I knew where it was before taking the coach over there.

After that we stopped off at Walmart for a few things and then headed for another drive out in the country.  We were trying to get pictures of some swans we had seen the other day, but no luck.

But we did see a lot more great fall foliage.  I didn’t take this picture, but it’s a good example of what we’re seeing.

After we got home, I emailed Nick to see if they wanted to go to Outback with us tonight for Jan’s Birthday supper.  We headed out about 5 pm to the Outback in Mishawaka.  As usual we spent as much time talking as eating.  We also discussed what we’re going to do on Nick’s coach tomorrow after I take mine in for new shocks.

We finally got home about 7:45 pm.  Another great night with good friends.

Cold Rain and Good Friends…

Guess what?

It’s another cold, rainy day here in Elkhart, IN.  At noon it was still only 39 degrees.

Jan and I decided it was just too cold and miserable to go out, so we stayed in and had leftovers from Hooters and Famous Dave’s

About 4:30  Nick Russell called to see if we wanted to go out and have Chinese for dinner. So a little after 5 pm we all headed out to the North Garden Chinese Buffet about a mile away.

And, as usual, we sat around talking for almost an hour after we finished eating.  Nick and Terry are nice people and it’s amazing how much we have in common.
