Where are we today ?
clic a pic to enlarge it
At 6am this morning it was 58f outside, the forecast today much cooler and it did cool down to the high 40's before noon, hey it was 82 yesterday. I did get a nice walkabout before 8 am about a mile.
The window guys were right at it here at 8 am removing the last 4 windows on the left side of our coach. With the 3 guys at it all removed including the valances etc and into the shop. To take them all apart clean the glass, reseal with all new rubber and gaskets. For the process click on my previous post for more detail. Then it started to drizzle a bit so the window openings were covered with plastic. They were working on our coach plus another.

We are in no hurry because we are planning to stay tonight here anyway.
Around 10 am the rain began so we moved our coaches inside to the many bays they have here.
We relaxing inside the coach and a few more walkabouts, had a light lunch then I went to Walmart down the road for a few items I wanted to pick up.

I tell you these guys (all 5 of them) are so friendly, professional and organized, joking around and they all enjoy their work. Nice to see the team work. And all their southern accents, gotta love but I sometimes have a problem understanding what they are saying.
The windows are so clear now we are so pleased, this has really bothered us for a few years. We believe this was money well spent on our "house" . We set a budget for improvements this year and ended up right on the money. These window repairs have a 2 year warranty and have heard of people who have never had an issue after 6 years.

| nobody here now just us |

| shop floor all cleaned up |
We back outside by 3:30 pm hooked back up to power and dumped our waste water tanks. Going down to freezing tonight and don't want to deal with that in the morning cold. And the sun finally came out for a while so nice to see it again.
Now our invoice all settled we can relax again. Lee told us if we like that we can stay here until Sunday if we wish with free full hook ups. But we want to get moving further west, time to move on.

Now for supper tonight we decided to go down the road for a treat to
Coltons Steakhouse and Grill recommended to us by Lee here for a feed of catfish that I love.

| very nice , cozy, good food and great prices |
 |
| a bucket of peanuts on every table |
We started with a small? appetizer. Of Onion Tanglers, very tasty we liked these better than onion rings.

small order on Onions Tanglers
only $2.99 with a spicy sauce |
 |
then we got fresh warm rolls,
with butter and honey |
 |
Suzie choose the pasta Alfredo
with shrimp |
 |
me of course a feast of catfish and fries
awesome! |
Such large portions we both took enough home for another meal.
Now back home Mr. Heater and electric heater on for a while to get comfy and cozy in our house for the night.
And shortly after 6 pm noticed this colourful sunset right outside Suzie's very clear window, not the best scenery but the sunset a wonderful way to wind down our day.

| a great ending to a wonderful day |
That was our day, got done what we wanted and then some, came here to get the 3 worst windows repaired and ended top getting all 8 done. We now very happy campers, and so in our motorhome. (like the song "I can see Clearly now"by Johnny Nash in 1972)
Thanks for dropping on by to check us out, we heading on down the road again in the morning.
