Yucky rainy LAZY day

Front
June 5 – What a nasty day!  I woke to rain at 7 and it didn’t stop until
Back
at least 4.  Rain wouldn’t be so bad but here it’s very damp and cold when it rains.  We decided not to spend the day out driving in the rain so we just stayed in.  For me that was literally.  I never got out of my pajamas until it cleared off and we went for our campground walk at 7.  You could say we were lazy bums and for the most part we were, but I did make seat covers for the driver and companion seats in front.  Before we left I bought 2 big nice thick towels that matched the chairs and tried clipping them on but that wasn’t working.  Bill suggested I get another towel and attach it to the top and make it slide down over the back of the seat.  The second Wal-Mart we tried had the same towels and color so I got one and it was the perfect day for the project.  Turned out nice.  I could only hand sew them so when we get home I will re-sew on the machine. 

I read an entire book, downloaded and resized photos and took a long nap!  Aah that was nice.  Then I ordered tickets for the Boston-Cleveland game June 12.  We had hoped to take 2 days to go but that would have meant 2 trades for us so we are just going for the day.  Bill eventually went to the post office.  We expected our first mail packet from Kam but it did not come so must be arriving tomorrow.  He stopped in the little town “market” and said it was expensive and had a little bit of everything, which is what Steve had told us.  He tried to get the DVD player to work so he could watch one of his new John Wayne movies.  We finally got the sound but no picture.  I’m thinking the video cord is not hooked into the fancy system we have.  He’s going to call the previous owner today and ask if they ever used it or if he unhooked the DVD player when he removed his satellite boxes.

How Bill spent the day
Once the rain cleared it wasn’t as chilly out as we had thought.  Our walk was nice and there were several units in for the weekend which is supposed to be pretty nice.  For dinner it was lean and green day, so I broiled venison burgers and make an Asian slaw from cabbage, carrots and broccoli stalks.  So tasty Bill finished it off!  Still haven’t seen a scale to check our progress or lack of, but I have had to retire a pair of shorts and 2 pair of capris so far!


My friend Polly in Maine called after receiving our postcard that we had arrived.  We had a nice talk and discussed our plans to visit her.  We will take one of our 3 day off stints and head that way for 2 nights.  She wants to see wedding photos and the RV so will take my laptop and show her what I have on it.  We are both looking forward to seeing each other and catching up.
