Starting out today, I found my Delorme Street Atlas 2015 software, and I think that’s the last of what I’m looking for as far as personal stuff to install.

One of the things that got lost in the Great Hard Drive Failure is the stuff I had prepared to post in my Greg’s Favorite Apps area, so it’ll be a couple of days  until I get back to that. I do have a paper list around here somewhere that will help me get things back on course.

Somehow I forgot to mention in yesterday’s blog about the great Beef Stew that Jan fixed in the crockpot.

Jan's Beef Stew
Made with Stew Beef, Carrots, Potatoes, Onions, and Parsnips, Jan spiced it perfectly, with just the right amount of heat. And enough left over for . . . well leftovers.

Our son-in-law Lowell alerted me to the fact that one of our favorite places to eat in Houston burned to the ground this morning.

Cleburne Cafeteria Fire
Cleburne Cafeteria has been around since the early 40’s in one building or another, and we’ve been eatiing here since the 80’s. In fact we just ate here a little over a month ago with Landon and his other grandparents, Sonja and Lendell.

Hopefully they’ll rebuild.

Nick Russell called me this afternoon to let us know that we’ve gone viral again on the Internet. The last time was in 2009 when we visited Busch Gardens in Tampa, with this result.

After I posted this on our blog it showed up all over the Internet, on Awkward Family Photos and a number of other websites.

But this time it was our rig, on Facebook. It showed up on Guy Scrivner’s page.

Rig in Washington

That’s our rig, traveling in Washington state in 2011. There was construction up ahead, so we spent about 45 minutes, just creeping along. And note, despite the caption, there’s no shoulder to pull over onto.

A couple of days ago Jan tried out a new recipe she first had a few months ago when she had her yearly get-together with her ex-coworkers from the hospital.where she worked before we started RV’ing.

The dish is a dessert called Sopapilla Cheesecake, and Jan found a recipe for it on Debi Hurlburt’s Facebook group, Debi’s RV Cooking.

And it gets even better after being in the fridge for a day or so. If it lasts that long.

I’ll post the recipe on Jan’s Favorite Recipes later tonight.


Thought for the Day:
