Lazy, Hazy Days of Summer…

Today started off with coffee and a relaxing morning enjoying the RV life. Then about 2:15 pm we left for my Uncle Theo and Aunt Virginia’s house to go to lunch about 20 miles away in Huntsville, AL at Macaroni Grill. We had a good meal and a great time getting together with them.

Getting back to their house, we said our goodbyes and left with some of Virginia’s delicious banana bread, and a fresh-made peach cream pie.

Getting back to the rig, we left the pie in the fridge and drove next door to Ed and Jan’s to get together for some watermelon in the gazebo.

These two cuties are my 2nd cousins, Stahlie and Darby. They’re home-schooled and speak 3 languages, including Russian. Their father Wes manages the RV park here.

And this little ball of fire is Harlan.

About 7 pm we said good night and goodbye to everyone and headed back to the coach.

We had a great time here in Athens, catching up with the family. We definitely look forward to seeing everyone again next year.

Tomorrow we head north to Louisville, KY about 250 miles away. We’ll there for 8 days that includes attending The Rally, the largest RV rally in the country.

More tomorrow…
