Bob started his day early as he left around 7:30 to take the truck to Milford to have that pesky turbo pipe patched/fixed/replaced. Evalou and I weren’t too far behind him to pick him. They’ll have the truck all day and we’re hoping we get it back….today. We are so glad Evalou is here otherwise he would have to spend the entire day at the dealership and if something goes wrong and they can’t finish it today I don’t know how he would get back here. Milford is nearly an hour away.
Evalou is treating everyone, nine of us, to brunch today. Our original plan was to go at ten but with the trip to Milford, Ronnie having to change spots in the camp, well we didn’t get out of here until a bit later.
So we all piled into her vehicle, well, all but two of us, and made our way to Ocean City to have omelets and crepes at Bayside Skillet.
The first thing I noticed was that its PINK. Everything is pink! Even the markings on the parking lot.
….and strawberries, strawberries everywhere.
So we get seated, place our orders and sit back to talk for awhile why we wait. It didn’t take too long for us to be served and what a meal we had! There were so many combinations of omelets to choose from. Potato and ham, seafood, spinach…just to name a few that were eaten at our table.
Bob and I each ordered the ham, potato, green pepper, onion and tomato omelet which was served with a crepe topped off with strawberry preserves.
Our omelets were huge and chock full of the ingredients I listed above. I’m tellin’ ya, to die for! It was so much we all had a problem finishing it but it was so good we weren’t about to let even a bite full go to waste. This caused some major waddling when we finally pushed away from the table. As I walking to the car I had made up my mind that there would be no dinner in the Quinn household this night. I knew I wasn’t going to be hungry and Bob will tell you, if I’m not hungry, I don’t cook. He was on his tonight!
We all thoroughly enjoyed our brunch, thank you Auntie Evalou!
Thursday evening brought a great storm. Not so much thunder and lightning, although there was some of that, but the rain! A torrential downpour that flooded tent sites, put the campground roads under a couple of inches of water, made a river of the volleyball court and closed Route 1 down to one lane in sections. Luckily, it does drain fairly quickly once it stops. There was no sitting out for us this evening talking the night away or playing Mexican Train.
Another good day in the lives of these fulltimers. Oh yeah, we got the truck back!
