Good morning. Yesterday got away on us and I did not get a chance to post a blog. One of the slide mechanisms on the RV was damaged, probably by us hitting something on the RV park at some point, and then eventually it broke. Anyway, rather than take it in for service which would be days and days, Mark manufactured a part and fixed it. I swear, that man can fix anything. 🥰

That’s a loaded spring inside the awning coiler … yikes! It’s a wonder we didn’t lose more parts on the highway! Anyway, as you can see, after a trip to Home Depot, some grinding and filing and cutting a rubber wheel it in half, Mark fixed it. 😅

It rained on and off most of yesterday so we weren’t able to park the rig until after supper. It slipped into its port perfectly. After all that, we poured a drink and sat on the front porch and invited Markymark to join us. Lani is away until Sunday and he has been working diligently on the pool bathroom. He wants to have a swim party once Lani gets back home. She is visiting her daughters in Chicago. We were concerned with her being there with the huge chemical fire that happened on Monday.

We talked with Randy and Dawn last night and they had Makenna and Charlotte for two nights. We will see RanDawn Friday night to celebrate her Birthday. 

So today has started out to be quite lovely, with a high predicted in the 80s. That probably means more rain later, but that’s OK. We hung a new flag for summer! I love how lively and bright it looks.

I wish we could buy the correct size which is a 3‘ x 5‘, but it’s almost impossible to find a decorative one in that size.

Suwan Way and are off quarantine and able to drive around shopping etc. They had a boat ride last night … sorry, but no pictures.

I started getting ready today for Dawn‘s birthday get together on Friday, and Wayno’s too. Now it’s time to watch some TV and we are looking for something good. It looks like will be watching Unearthed.

Good afternoon. Yesterday got away on us and I did not write a blog. I will try to do better today.

Yesterday, we traveled back from the Tampa Bay area to home. Traffic was light and it was an easy drive. When we got home, Mark wanted to wash the rig, and I washed five loads of laundry. (how do you create five loads of laundry in only five days?) 

Today, we got the RV parked, then puttered around this afternoon. Mark discovered a problem with our sunroof and had to do a quick repair. It was likely due to the hurricane 3 years ago!

 Later, Randy and Dawn stopped over with granddaughter Makenna for a quick visit. I had turned out my wreath making supplies and boxed them up. Dawn has the two granddaughters and was looking for crafting ideas! Perfect! Randy loaded up the box! That was the highlight of our day.
