Another day of pretty perfect weather. Got the coffee and computing mostly done and out for my first walkabout before 7 am. Down the lane and west to Baptist Church road and back. Love the quiet peaceful country side here the only noise I heard was the bur frogs in the pond and the cows mooing in the field down the road on the other side.

whatcha looking at? |
|
back to doing what they do best, eat |
|
this guy was catching his back on a branch |
|
nice peaceful country road |
|
the reeds by the pond |
|
the pond so scenic, listening to the bullfrogs |
|
when I got back there is Clemson on Suzie's knee more doggie fix |
Puttered around for a while then we took a drive with
Bill and
Patsy over to Acreage to get some water for their Suite. They have a 50 gallon water bladder that they fill and pump it into the 100 gallon holding tank. This way they don't have to move their trailer to do so. Pretty easy.
|
this is a first, Clemson on my knee |
|
water bladder ready to fill |
|
takes only a few minutes then full |
|
this works pretty slick, and folds flat for storage |
|
now just hook up a pump and fill their water tank |
Now this all done by 10 I made a quick trip into town for a few food items we needed.
|
love this mural at the main intersection of Durham |
Then just before 3pm into Durham to visit another RV couple we all know and spent time with over the years especially last winter in the southwest desert. Rob and Pat. Always nice to get us all together again when ever we can.
|
Clemson loves sitting in Suzi'e knee |
Then at Rob and Pats place in Durham for Happy hour. And Pasty's sister Donna and Gerry stopped by to join us. Another sister of Patsy's. We slowly meeting a lot of her family.

After supper just puttering around relaxing and reading for a while then we had expected company. A fellow blogger we have all followed for quite a few years.

It was a fun busy type of day, not rushed enjoying the weather and chatting with a few people as well.
DeleteSuch a good day, seems like we did a lot but it was pretty easy to take! Great to meet FG and Mrs. FG
ReplyDeleteIt was a wonderful day, yes we did a lot, but at such an easy relaxed pace, it was great to meet them.
DeleteThinking you need to get a dog of your own so you can have doggie fixes all the time. :c)
ReplyDeleteI have dogs over the years, other people's dog are nicer, like grandchildren , visit with them, spoil them then send them home, Less expense and not tied down either. lol...
DeleteAnother awesome day! How nice to meet more bloggers. I have to agree with your dog comment, we love them but because we are gone so much we enjoy other people's for now. Later on, once we are more tied down then we'll get a little companion. Beautiful sunset!
ReplyDeleteThank guys was a wonderful day, so nice to finally meet the Fury Gnome and not have the responsibility of a pet now.
