      A nice cool night for sleeping, 47F (8C) at 5 am and going to be a wonderful warm sunny day. I got a nice walkabout the campground and down Arkona Road an back a mile each way, a nice quiet country walk. And start to my day. And what great this is going to be , sunshine and no wind, shorts on before 9 am, what are can we ask for?

out and back my first walkabout 2 miles today.

      The campground so quiet now with all the kids and weekend people gone. Nice to enjoy it here on a very warm sunny day just beginning.

only one trailer in the orchard today

          Heading out for a walk down the road an back Rob had received a new stand up zero turn mower for the campground and had to try it out . looks like a fun machine to get things done.

       Leaving the campground past the mini golf that is so inviting head west on Rock Glen road on a perfect spring day.

the flood waters have died down now

no wind the turbines are not moving

I do enjoy walking the road in nice weather

down to the motel and turned around

         Then a bit later we had a light tasty lunch. And I headed over to explore the back roads around Hungry Hollow, just because I could. A nice scenic drive I always enjoy.

checking out Fossil road, beside the river comes to a dead end

     Then I enjoyed a very long hot shower and we settled into our page turners enjoying this wonderful warm afternoon sunny day.

       A bit later Walt (our flooring guy) and Barb dropped by to say hi and said they were having issues with their shaw satellite dish after the storm last Saturday. Heck I can take a look at it and see if I can help, either an easy fix or a hard one.

Doggie fix for Suzie Maya jumped right onto her lap

      We said we would come to their house in Forest, inspect the renovations and check out the dish issue.

     Over to their house and inspected the renos they did over the winter and looks amazing like the kind of work that Walt does. It was so warm that Suzie even put here shorts on for a couple of hours, I was too busy to take  picture of this amazing thing that happened.

Maya showed us a few new tricks with Walt

     Then we set to work on the Satellite dish. No luck after an or so hour I gave up. I knew the settings are right but no good signal. So the bottom line Shaw needs to be called and do some remote work to get it going again. This can be frustrating when this happens, but can be fixed.
     So we enjoyed a  beer in their back yard chatted for a while and headed on home.

Maya jumped in the car with Suzie and
would have come home with us.
Sorry girl, Walt needs you here

      Now was 5 pm and through Forest thinking we would would pick up some wings at FoodLand, but hey were sold out. Hmm. Just a block away I had noticed they have Fish and Chips so we headed there. 

       Friendly waitress, good quick, cooked to order service and very tasty meal we enjoyed. Very lightly breaded fish was excellent.

this was a very tasty feast , one piece would have been enough.
but I ate the whole thing!

        Heading east to home and here before 6 pm. still a nice day so we hopped into our lawn chairs,. finished this posting and right back into our page turners that we enjoy.

and a decent sunset from last night to share with you

        I will post this now and relax out here for while yet and if we get a sunset I will most that tomorrow, but does not look promising right now shortly after 7 pm.

        Thanks again for dropping in for a view and hope you had a wonderful spring day as well.
