       We did get some more rain overnight for a while , and a nice 48F when I git up at 4:30 this morning . Got some coffees consumed and started boiling yesterdays ham bone to begin making a nice big pot of Hurst's 15 Bean Soup that we love.
      As the sun was rising I got out for a nice morning walkabout and noticed the early morning fog mixed in with the sunrise. but did not take long for the fog to burn off.

interesting sunrise once the fog lifted was a great day

            Part of my walkabout down by the Hot Springs just because they are so close and scenic. Really love this area.

the hots springs are always busy here, why not they are free

       I bought these beans with the Cajun spice by mistake and did not think Suzie would like it so before I added the spice pack I  set some aside in another pot. Then time for a lunch sample, as predicted she did not like the Cajun spice, but I loved it, glad I split it.
      Once the broth was made , I took the excess meat from the bone added more water and put the beans on to the Quick Cook , let them simmer for 70 minutes add the rest of the ingredients then another 45 minutes done. Oh and is smells so wonderful in here with that aroma floating in the air.

I missed the Cajun sign because I did not know any better
now I know.

small pot for Suzie large for me with the spices
I will enjoy this soup

a very nice tasty lunch it was

       Now after lunch another walk about for a bit then cruised in the car to the other side one the Interstate to check out more of the LTVA camping. Not many rigs there and some very nice secluded sites if you like.

this quiet area gores a long way
back only a few rv's here

         Back home reading outside in the afternoon shade was very nice, just a slight cool breeze but that was just fine. Nice to see the sunshine back again.
    About 2 pm California time I went over to the Hot Springs for a very nice very nice long hot shower and soak in the tub, again very hot and up to my neck, loving this. 5 minutes in the tub I was done,  red like a lobster, man that felt good.

hot shower and hot tub here is amazing

         Soon time for the 3:30 Happy Hour, my donation to snack today is crackers , cheese and ham of course.

snack for all to enjoy and they did

          Happy hour today was in Lori and Roland's 5er toy hauler. Just because all the chairs were moved there and the ladies had just finished making about a million perogies.
