A great nights sleep as always (don't remember the last time that I didn't) Up bright and early waiting for the sunrise, but a no show, not worth seeing it was overcast and cloudy but warm in the low 50's to start the day. Right away I set the chicken bones on to simmer making a nice broth for our chicken noodle soup. I let them do their stuff then strained the bones added a bit more chicken and spices to simmer for another hour or so until it was just right.

While the soup did its thing I got myself a few few early morning walkabouts around this familiar Texas campground just enjoying the quiet and fresh morning air. Then a quick trip again for the rest of our food supplies , we needed, only a mile or so down the road to Dollar General and Brookshires.

now our soup was done and we enjoyed a tasty bowl
for lunch, few more lunches here yet |

A couple more walkabouts checking out the park , loving these warm sunny days.

We had planned to go to Waco and check out a few things and visit the Dr pepper museum again , but found out that this is March break here and they are excepting big crowds, think we will do it another time, Opps, last year we were here a week later, better planing next time, maybe. No problem we can just hang out here, it os so nice anyway.
Back in March 2012, (wow was it that long ago?), seems like yesterday, When we were here we took a drive to Waco Texas and checked out the Dr pepper Museum, click this link
HERE to read about it, sure was fun tour. Hope we can go back again!. They have done a lot of changes since then.

Where have we been this winter ?
What is a Fry Daddy? You picked the right spot to spend some time. We are experiencing a couple of cooler days, but it's sunny which makes all the difference.
ReplyDeleteThe Fry Daddy is the small electric deep fryer that I used for the fish bought at Walmart here in the states years ago,
DeleteThe weather here is pretty good right now but it will cool down a bit soon.
Your weather sounds wonderful!! We had a couple weeks while in Gulf Shores where the weather felt really springlike. The plants thought so too! Now we are having a freeze warning...oh no!! I hope those beautiful blooms don't die!! The soup looks delicious!!
ReplyDeleteThe weather is wonderful , gonna cool of Sunday, but not that cold I don't think. You guys bundle up.
DeleteThe thing is that spring break changes every year based on when Easter is. Hard to plan sometimes.
ReplyDeleteSpring break here is next week but Easter is not until March 30th, We have found that it does vary from state to state and even province to province in Canada they don't all take spring break at the same time.
DeleteWhen our paths cross I'll be requesting your chicken soup! What can I offer?
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful day on the road! Hope you keep them coming.
No problem Jeff just show up and we will figure something out ok?
DeleteThe month of March is Spring break in Waco since Magnolia open. We stayed there for a few months age year ago. A nice place to visit with plenty of room to walk away is is Homestead Heritage. It is just North of Waco. http://www.homesteadheritage.com/overview/
ReplyDeleteWell likely check that out while we are here thanks for the reminder,
DeleteDo you save the oil from your Fry Daddy? I just found a fryer on the bottom shelf in my kitchen .... waaaaay in the back. Thinking of using it because everything you cook in yours looks delicious!!
ReplyDeleteYes Nancy I keep the oil in my fryer for months, I don't use it that often. In my restaurant I changed it once a week and worked just fine and I did a lot of frying then.
DeleteI use canola oil and does a great job.
Your chicken soup looks awesome as always! Dinner too! Looks like your enjoying your time there. You and Suzie usually get to places early, you don't think if you got to Dr Pepper when they first open it wouldn't be too bad? Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThanks guys it was all so tasty.
DeleteI did some checking and also a big collectors gathering there as well this weekend so will be extra busy.
Nice to see you are settled again for a few days. I missed yesterday's post. Enjoy the Waco area and the nice weather!
ReplyDeleteWe always enjoy it here and the weather pretty decent no complaints at all.
DeleteThis be another ROD park, we like free !
Those pesky kids keep things hopping don't they? They sure have tons of energy!! Oh well, another year.
ReplyDeleteChicken soup looks good. There is nothing quite like a good pot of home made chicken noodle soup.
Enjoy your time at the park.
Yes they sure do keep things busy with all the energy we used to have too.
DeleteThe soup was tasty always enjoy a good homemade soup.
We always enjoy it here.
A nice relaxing day for sure and the soup looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteI do not know if this would be the sort of place you two like to visit, but, Tom and I enjoyed our visit at the Waco Mammoth National Monument when we were there last April.
It was a great day thanks.
DeleteWe had hopped to take in the MNM but again checked it our and they claim there will be large crowds this week with the school break, another time we hope.
