A Blustery Day

Wednesday March 7th

Still waiting for the GPS gizmo to heal….. Another quiet day of reading, TV and some cleaning chores. We had a call from Terye and set up a meeting at AJ’s for Friday lunch. Later I called Larry and we set up a meeting for Saturday lunch – we’re getting booked up.

Mid afternoon we ventured to the Camping World Store about 10 miles down I-10 from here. I needed to buy some spring loaded bars for the bathroom shelves. The shelves are spaced vertically far enough apart that shampoo bottles and other tall things fit nicely there, but when we move the bottles have to be put inside the cabinet because there is nothing to keep them on the shelf when the trailer hits a bump in the road. So the spring loaded bars are like a spring loaded adjustable shower rod on a small scale that can be adjusted and pushed into place to hold things on shelves or upright in the refrigerator. Also bought some cutesy hummingbird lights to hang on our awning – if we ever use it. At this particular site there is a tree preventing us from using it but it has been far too windy to use it anyway.

Once we left Camping World we went and checked out the ‘Lazy Days’ RV Park adjacent to the Camping World store. We stayed there 3 years ago and it hasn’t changed much although it has changed hands; it used to be called Beaudry’s.

By that time hunger pangs were working on both of us. I remembered a good hamburger place about a mile down the road from the Camping World store, so we headed there. It was called ‘Brooklyn Beer & Burger’ and the burgers were even better than I remembered.

The weather today was kind of blustery with a high of only 55 and it was mostly cloudy until late afternoon when it finally cleared up.
