Today is Bob's birthday. His third that he has spent out of the USA. His first he was in Germany with the Army, the second he was in Viet Nam, once again with the Army, the third, in Canada on one helluva RV trip!
We're not traveling today, its a day of rest. We've covered a lot of miles in the last three days and we're both tired of the truck, Bob certainly more so than me.
So we rested. We watched the Phillies play which happens to be our first game this season that we've been able to watch. Prior to today when the games were nationally televised we didn't have a cable TV connection or we weren't anywhere near a TV at all. With seven games in front we're looking forward, towards the World Series. We hope.
I had taken a nice roast out to thaw when we parked yesterday but Bob said since we are in a park with a restaurant that we should eat there tomorrow thus saving having to do dishes and well, it IS his birthday. Well, ok, I don't even need the excuse of a birthday to eat out, the sun coming up in the morning is enough reason for me so I slipped the roast back into the freezer for another day.
Check out the door handles. From the looks of these two pictures it seems as though some flooding must have gone on here at some point.
So here we are, nothing thawed for dinner today and he says to me, "Oh darn, the Phillies are on, I don't want to miss the game, let's eat here and watch the game. OOOOKAAAAAYYYYYYY. Now what do I do? Ramen noodles and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich,,,, HAPPY BIRTHAY DINNER BOB! It didn't turn out to be THAT bad. We had one of our favorite throw it together quick meals. Fried Spam, fried potatoes and green beans. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOB!
After living in mostly parking lots these past few months it was kind of nice to have trees on both sides of us.
