A decent cooler day, sunshine and a nice happy hour

Where are we today ?
 clic a pic to enlarge it
      Cooler again overnight a good nights sleep and up at 4;30 this morning chilly out there 40 F(4C). So got some breaky and coffees consumed, added another layer of clothes to be outside, undershirt, t-shirt, flannel shirt and my hoody and when the sun began warming things up to 45F about 9am I enjoyed a nice walkabout the quiet campground. Even quieter this weekend with next weekend being our Canadian Thanksgiving and the campground will be busy with Thanksgiving dinner and Halloween activities for everyone to enjoy. We will not be here our Thanksiving will be spent with our families.
my first walkabout and the  orchard area is empty
me and my shadow enjoy a nice quiet morning 
a nice sunny  area behind us in the square reading for a while
then just afternoon e had sunshine
warming the cabin beside us
       Enjoying our e readers in the warming sun was wonderful and noticed this large trailer pulling out of the park. I guess it was sold.
somebody bought this and is relocating it
      At 2:30 this afternoon we were invited to Ron and Loree's for a nice quiet Happy hour. Just the 4 of us perfect  nice to catch up  with these guys again.
Freddie the welcoming committee and loves to see us as usual 
then he settles down and and relaxes
    We enjoyed about 90 minutes of sharing stories and flapping our gums, just after 4 pm time for us to head on home. They can have dinner and so can we.
Ron , Loree, Suzie and Freddie
         Back home to relax a bit and our new Neighbour Mark came to join us for a bit, looking for more tips. Along with his puppy Shilo. We had fun sharing more tips , then soon time for supper.
Suzie and Shilo
    As I was making supper than later the usual Loree and Freddie walked on by on their evening walkabout she asked how our fish a chips were. Not yet it has been delayed. Another Happy hour!

    Then now I can whip up supper. Tonight a 1/2 pound of pickerel fillets I picked on the rez the other day plus some fresh cut potatoes fried in our Fry Daddy. I fry the taters 2 times first time blanch then set them aside let the fryer get back to temp and fry again. Making them so crispy. Then when the fry daddy gets hot again  fry the fish only 3-4 minutes until nice and browned.
love our Fry Daddy
all done to perfection and we enjoyed wonderful fish fry
this sure hit the spot tonight
     Another decent fall day and much better after the sun came out a nice happy hour and a very tasty fish fry.
     We were invited to Marks for a nice campfire, but at 55 f outside not our style, Need to head inside get warmed and become couch potatoes for the night. Thanks anyway Mark.
      Glad that you stopped on by and as usual hope your enjoyed your day as well.

  1. Despite the sunshine you are getting some chilly fall weather. Do you make a sauce to go with the pickerel?

    1. We have been getting chilly weather, warming up again is nice. I make a tatar sauce sometimes, but we like the pickerel just like this very tasty.

  3. The temps are dropping in your neck of the woods. We had some 80's but it is back into the 90's again but as long as that's as high as they go I'm OK.

    1. Yes things are cooling down, getting us ready for winter. Hopefully it will be nicer for you there. And perfect when we get there as well.

  6. We returned to our home base for a week and I think we have your temps now. It's 60 now and supposed to be as low as 36 overnight in a couple of days. Brrr! Only a few more days and you'll be headed south. We hope to be in Branson around the 23rd for several days. If you are in that area during that time let me know. We'd love to meet up with you.

    1. Blanching the fries I have done for years most restaurants will do that with fresh cut fries makes the crispy.
