Happy Memorial Day!

May 28 – What a great day!  Happy Memorial Day! 

I started hearing voices just outside the RV around 7 this morning.  Turns out there was a 2k

Fun to watch from the RV

run for charity happening at the track on the fairgrounds.  They had a pretty good turnout but at 10 AM the place was deserted again.  Later I saw one sulky driver going around the track.  He has the peace and quiet of the entire track to himself.

Once we had a bit of breakfast Bill went out to clean the few bug splats off the front of the RV and I posted my first blog.  It was a rather relaxing morning.  We both got our showers and left for Wal-mart on our way to my cousin Becky’s place for Memorial Day with her siblings and all the kids and grandkids.  It was quite a crowd.  They said they were expecting 20 but I think there were 23 including us.  I can’t begin to remember the names but got to spent some quality time with my cousins Jeff and Gail.  Was really a fun afternoon that I won’t soon forget.

We left there at 5 as I promised my Aunt Donna we’d bring dinner and her favorite is a McChicken and a Mocha Frappe.  I ordered it exactly like her daughter told me to and she was happy to see us and her dinner.  I took the leftover strawberry shortcake from the earlier event and left it for her.  She could get 2 maybe 3 servings from it.  She, Bill and I sat at the kitchen table and had a nice chat about family, medical and life in general.  Such a wonderful lady.  She taught Bill a new singing ditty, hope he remembers it!  Strawberry shortcake, huckleberry pie, …..S-u-c-c-e-s-s
