The Little Cart . . .

Was up about 10 am this morning to a bright sunny day, much better than yesterday’s pouring rain.

After coffee and cinnamon bagels for breakfast, I spent the rest of the morning working on client Internet stuff.

Then after lunch I headed out to start soliciting door prizes for the Eastern Gypsy Journal Rally. I’ve got a list of the places that donated two years ago so that gives me a start.

While I was out and about, I stopped by a local O’Reilly’s Auto Parts to see if they had some #53 bulbs. These are used in the floor lights in our rig, and they are apparently hard to find, since I had tried 3 or 4 other places with no luck. But when I checked online, O’Reilly’s had them in their catalog, so I was hoping the store would too. And they did, so I bought all 4 they had.

I hit about 8 places, got gift coupons from 1, and ‘Come back in the next couple of days” at the others.

Got home about 5 and about 5:30, Nick and Terry, Jan and I, and Chris Yust headed into town to have dinner at La Carreta, a favorite local Mexican place of ours. Charles, Chris’ husband was a little under weather so he stayed home. He missed a great time. Jan and I both enjoyed our meal, but not, apparently, Nick and Terry’.  I don’t think either one were happy with their meal.

But as usual, we sat there for over an hour just talking and laughing, and having a good time.

We got home about 7:30, just in time for more TV premieres.
