One last time . . .

for Nick to make me get up at 7:30 in the morning.

At least for a while.

Jan and I headed down to the Vendor’s Building about 8:15 to say our goodbyes to friend’s new and old. Then we started working on cleaning up and sweeping out the meeting rooms. A number of people pitched in to help and the work went quickly. So with everything pretty much wrapped up, Jan and I headed out for lunch and some errands.

Our first stop was the local Goodwill store to dropped a donation of clothes and books, then it was across the street to the Sonic Drive-In. And after a great lunch of footlong chili dogs and Chedr-Poppers,

Next up was that mecca of RV’ers, Wal-Mart for a few things, and then finally back to the rig.

And for the first time in a couple of weeks, a nice long nap, only slightly interrupted by the light rain accompanied by very high winds.

Nick called about 4:30, and a few minutes later, we headed out to CJ’s HighMarks for dinner.

The ‘we’ in this case, consisted of Jan and I, Nick and Terry, and Mike and Elaine Loscher. It was really nice to have a nice, leisurely dinner, knowing that we can (and will) slept in tomorrow morning as late as we want.

From our table we had a great view of the neighboring golf course and the approaching storms rolling in.

We had a great meal. The steaks that Nick, Jan and I had were some of the best ever, just about perfect.

And as usual, we sat around talking long after finishing our meal, just letting ourselves unwind.

We finally got back to the rig a little before 7 just in time for more rain to move in. This is getting monotonous.

Tomorrow, we do nothing.

Thought for the Day:

Be careful of believing something just because you want it to be true.
