10/25-10/27/2011 Not Much To Tell

I don’t know if its because we have all traveled so many miles….

Pat & Dann - South Dakota to Utah to southern Texas

Joy & DeWayne – South Dakota to Oklahoma to southern Texas

Us – South Dakota to Texas to Arizona to southern Texas

….whatever it is, its like we don’t really want to get in the truck and go anywhere other than the store to get needed tools and bread or milk and beer of course. It’s like we’re slugs although the guys are busy around the rigs and us girls are doing things in the park. Though no one has said it out loud its like we’re all saying, “Oh please, not the truck, don’t make me get in the truck.” Its really a shame because there are things to do and see around here.

Bob did fix the leak and this small leak turned into a monumental job! Since this is our second leak Bob decided that he had to check everything in the basement. EVERYTHING! He had already checked everything in the rig itself but now he is checking things behind walls and above basement ceilings. Lots of time and twisting and turning and cramped spaces but we can now say that every connection has been checked and tightened if needed and he also now knows where the lines run behind walls which someday he may be very glad he knows. Piece of mind, a good thing to have.

The girls and I have been playing Mexican Train during some afternoons.

Bunky, Toni and Joy waiting on Pat to make her move.

Pat, trying to figure out what she’s going to do.

We’ve been enjoying temperatures in the mid 80’s these past few days. I, for one, will be glad to have cold front come through so we can turn the air conditioner off. Not too cold mind you.

The trees at our site. What a beautiful blue sky!

Do you remember when I told you about the little ghost town for sale in South Dakota? You can refresh your memory HERE. Well, the town has been sold but the sale seems to be shrouded in mystery. The Iglesia ni Cristo church, established in the Philippines in 1914, bought the town. Spokespeople for the church are keeping mum on the reason they bought or any plans they have for the town. Even the local real estate agent had to sign an agreement that he would not speak of the sale. Strange, to say the least.
