What a great sleep we had so quiet here, and I actually slept in again! 5:30 this morning wow. Our wonderful weather we have been having has gone down hill for a bit, 55F today over cast and some rain later on this morning for a couple of hours. Ok it was all day. A good things with all this heavy rain we found out the water leak we had fixed in Quartzsite appears to have worked. No more leaks , Yeah !!!
Before that happened I got a nice walkabout this campground getting familiar with it again We like it here as well that's why we came back.

love the trees and cabins here |
|
tornado shleter |
|
a very shelter inside |
|

|
a nice sheds the have and decks as well |
|

|

main street Eufaula |
Then took a drive into Eufaula to check out the Top Value grocery store they do have some wonderful prices on quite a few items I picked up Bananas 25 cents a LB, Chunk tuma 39 cents, shredded cheese 98 cents,, bacon 2.88 a lb. have not seen those prices for a very long time. Also they had some pork sirloin chops that we love 78 cents a LB but a 10 lb package, no room for those :<(.
Back home by 10:30 and we enjoyed a light tasty lunch, raining now. So no outside fun for a bit, no problem we have FHU's do some computing putter around, gotta repair a broken lamp, so that will keep me busy , then we can get some reading done. Even watch a couple of real old TV westerns on ME tv. Like Gunsmoke, Wagon Train, Rifleman, Wanted Dead or Alive, and Bonanza, in black and white of course, all of the great old shows we used to watch years ago.
We were supposed to have 20 % chance of sunshine, but the weather gods goofed. Mostly rain all day after 9 am. No problem though and looks like may have 30 % chance of sunshine tomorrow, we will see. But 3 pm we enjoyed a nice Happy Hour watching a couple of more old westerns, really enjoying this weather for a change of pace.
For supper tonight we decided on some Pork Schnitzel a nice meal to cook inside on a rainy day, So thawed a couple of boneless pork chops, pounded them down to 1/4 inch thickness or less. Roll in flower and spices , egg wash then cover with seasoned panic bread crumbs for the recipe you can click
HERE or check my recipe blog top right sidebar. An easy very tasty meal. That we will of course add to our salad.
|
love this mix we got at the Arizona Market place in Yuma makes a nice salsa as spicy as you like |
|
boneless chop to hammer down |
|
chop wrapped in plastic my meat mallet does the trick |
|
then the flour, spices , egg wash and bread crumbs easy and in the fridge for a while |
|
here it is 4:30 pm and still raining, but heck the day has flown by just enjoying out time together |
We do have the local tv channels on like always when in this area (Tornado Alley) especially when there is raining thunderstorms around, we do get a warning right on the TV and if need be we can go to the shelter, we have done this a few times over the years. They do have amazing warning systems here in this area.
Soon time to whip up supper and tonight with our schnitzel I am going to fry up some onions and mushrooms, to go with some shredded cheese and salsa. What a tasty treat.
|
saw a few Canada Geese around herre must be following us home |
|
nice pool but not open yet |
|
schnitzel is done |
|
and oh so tasty and tender just the way it should be. |
No visible sunset tonight as expected so no picture, And still raining at 6 pm so we will enjoy a wonderful quiet evening inside, we know how to that too!
Now I hopped in the car to take the garbage out and was no going to happen. Move ahead a foot or so and got stuck! Opps this is not good !! A neighbour saw me and came over to give me a push. No Go. Then he walked over to another neighbour here , he came to look and said heck we get the tractor. They had chains hooked up , tractor came and in no time we were unstuck.

Where have we been this Winter?
Nice folks there. Glad you got out. Dinner looks yummy!!!!! I suppose rain is better than snow but No tornados allowed.
ReplyDeleteThey are very nice, right there for me. Dinner was tasty thanks. We keep looking for tornadoes and not finding , a good thing.
DeleteDinner looked wonderful. Nice folks to come help you get 'unstuck'. Doesn't take long for the ground to get muddy! Enjoy your time there.
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb it was tasty. Friendly people in most campgrounds. It sure did not take long to get muddy
DeleteLOL - Stuck in the mud!, in your campsite! Dinner looks good - bet mine was better! ... The last of the BS Market charizo in a burrito with cheese and beans. Hope things dry out for you.
ReplyDeleteYup Jeff stuck on the spot. Our dinner was good but your with the chorizo burrito does sound much better. We hope it dries up soon as well.
DeleteYou really were stuck, nice to have friendly people to pull you out!
ReplyDeleteYeah heck I was and just like that. Nice to have them right here to unstuck me.
DeleteRainy days can be good days and it sounds like you enjoyed one. If you had to get stuck in the mud it is nice to have people around willing to help. Good to know there is a shelter nearby if the weather turns nasty. Stay safe.
ReplyDeleteRainy days can be enjoyable for a change, and was surprised when they just showed uo to get me stuck so quickly. It is a nice shelter too.
DeleteI was happy to see that shelter. I often wonder why more places and homes don't have them.
ReplyDeleteYou sure were stuck wow but how wonderful to have help like that. Nice people in the park. And dinner sure looks good
A lot of the parks in these areas have shelters you just never know. Most campers are very nice and helpful glad these for are as well.
DeleteThat is a very nice campground. Good to know there is a tornado shelter if you need one which I hope you don't.
ReplyDeleteThose cabins that they have there, are they for nightly rental?
Sorry you got stuck in your own yard. It was wonderful that caring neighbors gave you a hand.
It is a nice campground we enjoy it here. This are rental cabins yes. A lot of campgrounds do have rentals which is nice to know. At least I was stuck right at home.and they were right there to help.
DeleteLol not fun being stuck anywhere. Glad the staff could pull you out.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy the rain stayed away from us, we were expecting some but it got really hot here instead with clear skies.
Hopefully today is a dry day for you.
It was not fun but not a big deal either we were quickly unstuck. Rather be in a campground when it is raining than on the road. Today's weather probably not much better, we will see.
DeleteLooks nice there but a bit soggy. Nice that there were helping hands to assist you in getting your car out!
ReplyDeleteIt was fine here until we had a full day of rain, should dry up soon, we hope.
DeleteLove the rv park with all the trees blooming! So pretty. Nice you had people helping to get the car unstuck, it does look soggy, but when it rains pretty much all day its what happens :) Dinner looks amazing, who wouldn't love schnitzel! Love that area with the little towns and that beautiful lake! Too bad you couldn't fit in the pork but 10 lbs is a lot but that price!! wow!
ReplyDeleteIt is a nice area we enjoy it here. Glad we got unstuck with their help. The schnitzel was very tasty.
DeleteThat pork sure was a deal.
Hey, almost like getting stuck in the sand :) Nice of everyone to help you. Looks like a nice RV park. Hope the weather improves.
ReplyDeleteYes it is and your know we have done that a couple of times too.
DeleteHey, I have boneless pork in the fridge thawing! I know what I'm making for supper.
ReplyDeleteAren't RV'ers the best people. Must have been a good ground soaking rain to sink the Saturn.
Continued safe travels George.
Enjoy you schnitzel we love it. Most ry'ers are wonderful people. And yes it was a very heavy rain for quite a while.
