Wednesday, wrapping up a few things before we leave in the morning.

Where are we today ?
       Yesterday  I took the day off. Just cause I can.  What the heck the pay is the same. But I did get some walkabouts and reading done, was really a great day.
free boats to use here
north pool
south pool
         But we have to eat and I had picked up a deal on a chicken the other day. Huge 5 lb chicken $5.00 US. (Ok thats $6.50 Canadian but still a good deal. We love chicken so I cooked in up on our Weber Q along with a couple legs and thighs. Can always use chicken for salads, sandwiches, casseroles etc.. Some in the freezer for when we on the road. Don't want them to take it at the border. Cooked meat is ok.
lotsa room on our Weber Q
         Last night we enjoyed a wonderful chicken dinner then I boiled to carcass to make a huge pot of soup.
         This morning ran a few errands early, began making the soup and a couple loads of laundry done in the process. So Chicken noodle soup and a chicken sandwich (for Suzie) a very tasty lunch.
         Puttered around for a bit this afternoon, enjoyed some more reading and supper tonight made a Loaded Sweet Potato, with chicken, broccoli and cheese, grilled tomato with garlic goat cheese and a salad. For the Sweet Potato recipe you can click HERE or my recipe blog on the right side bar.
ready for the Weber Q
looking good
very tasty
        That was our wonderful day. Still a little chilly for August (mid 60'sF) but we managed to enjoy it. Now to relax a bit outside enjoying the fresh air. We have found it amazing how busy this campground is pretty well full. Rigs coming and going all day long.
        Thanks for taking peek again. Hope you had a wonderful day too.

  7. Love the free boats! Did you get out? We'll have to try that park in our future travels for sure. :) I have to check your recipe file for the chicken soup, I never have luck with the taste I'm expecting in soups so hardly make them. I need specific instructions so I don't go wrong. Wow, those are honkin' big potatoes! Looks good!
