August 11th, Saturday – A Breakfast Surprise; More Odds and Ends

OK, so this morning was not cool, nor cold, it was pleasant.  Yes, pleasant and comfortable and wet and rainy.  Good sleeping weather for one and all.  Even Marti was in no hurry to get out of bed.  We’ve been taking him to my sister’s and they have a fenced in yard where he can run, and run he has for the past several days.  Little Man, as my sister calls him, is definitely not used to all the exercise.

Breakfast was absolutely delicious.  Barbara found a new way to make pancakes and

they come out so light and fluffy they almost float off the plate (No, I didn’t eat all of these).  They are scrumptious.  With a glass of juice, some sausage and a couple of cups of coffee what more could one ask for.

As for the rest of the day, no sense boring everyone.  Suffice to say it was a day doing nothing significant.  Of course, when it rains I always check for leaks.  We’re water tight as always.  Since it was raining, and they don’t allow you to wash your rig here at the

park, you guessed it, I decided to use the water God was providing.  I guess, though, God wasn’t in a rig washing mood because I got only about half way done and the rain stopped.  Stopped for good.  Not a drop more the rest of the day.  Oh well, next rain storm I’ll finish up.

What to do next?  Read a book, still working on the mystery novel I started.  Surf the web for this and that.  I believe I found a company that will remove and replace the ugly

looking decals that are now on the side of Graybeard.  They have faded and they are all beginning to peel off and look like the pits.  I also checked on some more campgrounds for next year, more possible sites to see, and routes to take.  It’s going to take quite a bit more time to pull it all together.  Time, however, is something I have in abundance.

Supper time and back to my sister, Cindy’s, house for supper.  Oh boy, pork in sauerkraut, mashed potatoes, vegetables, and for dessert lemon meringue pie.  When the week is over a diet will definitely be called for.  But for now I’m willing to make the supreme sacrifice and cheerfully eat everything that is put in front of me!  I know, what a guy.

That believe it or not was our day.  As I said an easy one at that but for some reason I’m really dragging tonight.  Can’t put my finger on why but I’m just dog tied.  This too, I’m sure, will pass.

Well, night is again here so I’m going to wrap this up.  Thanks for joining us for the day.  We’ll see you again tomorrow.  In closing, here is something for all of us to ponder:

As always,  if you are coming to the end of your day with concerns and worries, let me suggest that you turn them over to God.  After all, He is going to be up all night so why not let him handle them for you.

Time now for our evening prayers and eventually some shut-eye.  Till tomorrow.

These are the voyages of  Graybeard and it’s occupants, four paws and two humans.  Our continuing mission: to explore as many new states as possible, to seek out new acquaintances and make new friends, to boldly go where we have not been before
