Since
this was Saturday we weren’t in a big rush to get the day started but we knew
we had to get moving when we did. Knowing that Kathy needs more sleep then I do
I managed to have all my morning reading finished on the Computer before turning on the light
at 9:30.
After
getting changed and making the bed we went upstairs for a different kind of breakfast.
When we made supper on Thursday Kathy also baked a couple of pies. When we saw
there was exactly one piece of each still in the refrigerator that’s what we
had along with a hot cup of Coffee. We
managed to have a short visit with Karen before we headed out the door at
11:00.
Timing
was everything, we weren’t in a hurry but we had to be places by certain times.
We took Manning Road and zig-zagged the country side through McGregor until we arrived in Amherstburg. Our first stop was Pharma Choice Pharmacy to not only get our normal Three-Month supply of prescription
medications but the new meds that Kathy’s Family
Doctor had written for the rash on her face. Both were in the form of
creams so the Pharmacist had to
explain to Kathy how to get the best results.
Our
next stop was Shoppers Drug Mart
just down the street where we picked up some Vitamins at a cheaper price and with our PC-Optimum Cards our purchases help to save us additional money on future
purchases.
It
was past 12:30 and sweets for breakfast do not keep your tummy satisfied for
very long so we stopped at McDonalds for a Sweet Chili Wrap for our lunch.
By 1:00
we were at our son Kevin’s place to find him inside their Travel Trailer fixing things up. When I asked if he was ready to go
he suddenly remembered what I was talking about. Kathy told us to have fun and
headed off to Walmart.
After
a quick Phone Call Kevin and I were
on our way to Gay and Liz’s home. Kevin found a 29 Ford Coupe that he is making into a Street-Rod and he has run into a few stumbling blocks. Gay has been
working on Street-Rods since he was
a youngster and even ran a couple of his cars on the Salt-Flats. Once we arrived it didn’t take long for Gay to start giving
Kevin the “Nickel Tour” as he called
it and Kevin was filled with questions. When Gay started showing him different
things that Kevin hadn’t even thought about he was really surprised and
grateful at the same time. Just before we left Liz came out to say hello and
was disappointed that Kathy hadn’t come with us to visit.
All
the way back to his house Kevin kept saying if he had a Shop like Gay’s he’d never have to go in the house again. Kathy was
just pulling into his driveway as we came around the corner. When Kathy saw
Kevin smiling ear to ear she knew he was happy to have met Gay and toured his Shop. That was when I told her that she
still had the Camera in her purse so
we didn’t get any pictures. We had just been visiting for a few minutes when
Melissa came home. Just like our weekly visits we had so much to talk about
that the time just flew by and we had to say we’ll see you later.
It
took less then Five Minutes to drive
over to Gerry and Sandy’s house. We’ve traveled together in the past even visiting
the US Capital and a few RV Rallies as well. Sandy had been ill earlier this week so we had
to reschedule our get-together. Their puppy Star didn’t recognize us at first and was letting us know there
would be no funny business but after a few minutes of conversation and a few
scratches behind the ears she knew we were safe.
Gerry
drove us all out to a little restaurant in LaSalle called Roma’s. Kathy and I have driven by this place but never stopped.
The Atmosphere was very relaxing,
the Service fast, the Food was delicious but the Company made it special and the
conversation never stopped. We now have another restaurant to go to so we don’t
over use the others we tend to frequent.
On
our way back to their Home Gerry drove
us around some of the areas in Amherstburg that there are proposed
changes that will be happening in the near future. Back at their house Sandy
served Strawberry Cheesecake and Coffee but the conversation never
stopped. It also seemed like Star
was trying to get into entertaining us for a while. Before we knew it was time
to say our Good Nights and head back
to Tecumseh. Thanks Gerry and Sandy for another Enjoyable Visit.
The
other day Gasoline Prices in our
area skyrocketed up to $1.339 a Liter
($5.189 a US Gallon) so when I spotted
the sign saying $1.205 a Liter ($4.669 a US Gallon) we stopped in to
top off the Car.
When
we arrived at Karen’s, the house was in darkness but Sanford and Tyler were
there making certain the house was Safe.
Kathy read the instructions on the New
Medicated Creams before using the one for night-time. When she put on her CPAP Mask it started to really burn.
Fortunately, we tried one of my CPAP Mask
Liners and it seemed to solve the problem.
With more cooler temperatures tomorrow
we’ll find other things to keep us busy. Thanks
for following along, feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

You know you're getting old when
you don't remember being absent minded.
I'm never going to complain about the cost of fuel again!!
ReplyDeleteYou and Kathy sure know how to fill a day. Sounds wonderful. Hope Kathy's rash goes away with the new meds
ReplyDelete$1.339 is better than the $1.469 we have in Kelowna ... at least diesel, which is what we use, is still $1.259.
