Today really warmed up.  It truly was a t-shirt and shorts day.

Powell and I went to town to get the tophats for the rear axle.  They did not have the nut covers so they ordered them and will be here by the weekend – it makes the axle look nice again.
Powell and I went out for breakfast, picked up gas for the generator and looked at a few car trailers.
On the way back, we noticed a burnt out motorhome being pulled by a wrecker – sure hope everyone was okay.

Vadie did some cooking for the big dinner tonight – Prime Rib.  It sure was good, all the fixing including a wonderful dessert table.  One thing for sure, nobody went away hungry.

The wind was strong enough this afternoon that I flew my kite for the first time – this was fun.  I will have to get a pic of it.

We had open house, and quite a few people came through to look at the many changes which we have done.  It was fun.  Vadie and a few of the other ladies went through the other coaches which were open.

As every evening, we stand by the fire and have chats with different people, then went and played cards with Powell and Char.

I recently downloaded some pictures that were taken earlier, showing you where and why we are here.

Special Person today – younger brother Jake – hmmm, he has a few children/step children, with as many grandchildren/step grandchildren.  He is retired, well he thinks he is, but he seems to be working all the time doing odd jobs for this person or that person.  Both Jake and brother in law Jim, have a keen interest in model trains.  I will have to go with them one day to see what the club is all about.
