Our Location today is Crystal
River, Florida.
Normally Kathy and I have problems getting a decent night’s sleep
before travel days. For the last three nights I have barely slept and can only
hope that tonight I will go into a sound sleep.
I returned to bed just to lay next to Kathy after having
read all the blogs published up until 7:00
this morning knowing that I probably would not sleep and I was right. Shortly after
7:30 Kathy woke up and we just
talked before having our coffee and muffins for breakfast. The temperature
outside was only 41F (5C) and we weren’t scheduled to be anywhere so went back
to the computers.
By 10:30 I was sorting
the laundry so that we wouldn’t be carrying any extra dirt with us when we leave
for Largo in the morning. Once I was
out the door to the laundromat Kathy started cleaning the inside of the trailer
and cooking meals for the next few days that we only need to warm up.
These buds waited for warmer weather before opening. |
I returned for lunch around 12:15
after getting things into the dryers. Of course Kathy had already finished
making a nice hot bowl of Vegetable Beef soup to help us warm up. Even though
there was clear sunny skies and no wind today there seemed to be a damp chill
to the air. Our high for the day was in the low 60’s but everyone in the park
was wearing sweaters or jackets.

Kathy always tells me I have big feet. Hate to run into whoever wears these. |
Before 1:00 I went
to fold our clean clothes as the dryers finished their cycles. Back at the
trailer Kathy put the clothes away while I repacked our basement. Tuesday we
had gone kayaking and yesterday we went for a ride plus our laundry cart and
chairs needed to be put away. I even prepped the truck for towing and coupled
it to the trailer.
Supper time I barbecue a couple of Sirloin Steaks while Kathy
fixed the sides. Letting the water heater do its thing we watched the weather
channel where they are presently tracking two more winter storms to the north
of us. Our daughter and her family will be on the road early in the morning
heading in this direction so we can only hope that the storm has already moved
to the east of their route by then.
Kathy and I took a final walk over to the club house so she
could do a book exchange. We didn’t take to long as the temp felt cold enough
that we had Hot Chocolates to help us warm up back at the trailer. Thanks for following
along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

What do you get if you cross a helicopter
with a cornish pastry?
Pie in the sky!
We're the same way the night before we travel ... we're like kids before Christmas ... all excited.
ReplyDeleteUs too! Smart to fix meals and warm them up!
ReplyDeleteBe safe!
Always love the travel days, on the road again. Hope your family has a safe trip south.
ReplyDeleteYup...we caught up all the laundry too here in Big Bend. But the dryers at the laundromat barely heated up. ($2.00 a load and nothing was dry!) So I hauled it all back to the motorhome and hung things around on all the opened cabinet doors! Plus I put our towels in the smaller motorhome washer/dryer a few at a time to get them fluffier and softer.
ReplyDeleteFeels good to get those chores done so you can enjoy the travels!
