St. Patrick's Day

We had a great dinner at the clubhouse of corn beef and cabbage.  Most everyone wore green, it was a sea of green.  The Escapees Rally Continues.

It rained all day, sometimes hard with lighting and thunder.  We were in a tornado watch for awhile but nothing developed.

Escapees Chapter Rally

The Escapees Chapter Rally began today at Sumter Oaks RV Park (where we have been all winter).  We had Hobo Stew for dinner - not unlike "Stone Soup", we all brought vegetables and the club added meat.  It was very good.  Some friends we hadn't seen for awhile were there as well as people we see everyday.  Activities are planned for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

One more job done

Don fixed the bathroom facet today, actually he bought a new one as the old one wouldn't come apart.  OK, as I like the new one better anyway.

We went to corn beef and cabbage at Cracker Barrow for dinner.

I used to watch every episode of MASH, and reruns.

Trouble!

Trouble!  First our bathroom sink faucet that had a very slop drip turned in to almost a steady stream of water.  Then the washing machine decided to do it's occasional trick of not running.  Don fixed the washer - again.  He has that down.  He had me soder while he held the wire, now I can say I contributed.  Faucet tomorrow.  Trouble sometimes runs in threes, I hope that is not true this time.

We ate at home, unusual for a Friday night.  We had an eggplant that needed to be eaten.

Thursday at the park

Another day in the campground and what a nice day, the sun is shinning, humidity way down, cool.

I did catch-up work on the computer for a lot of the day and cleaned out our paper files.  We went to the dinner at the clubhouse, pulled pork, beans, corn on the cob.  All good.

From the Needles Highway in Custer (South Dakota) State Park.  Built in 1922 - they said it was impossible to construct.

Tampa, etc.

We went to Tampa today, ate at Sweet Tomatoes as usual.  Then I went to the Birkenstock store and bought a new pair.  Now I know what my size is and can order from the internet.  I got a black pair of sandals with white and pink design.

Camping World was our next stop, we bought nothing but looked at a couple big purchases we will need in the near future.  Then it was on to Parksdale Farms to load up on fresh fruit and vegetables.   We got two full bags, cost us about $8 - tomatoes, corn on the cob, cucumbers, green peppers, eggplant, strawberries.
