Satellite dish figured out, nice Happy Hour and more doggie fixes for Suzie

Where are we today ?
 clic a pic to enlarge it
      Here we are back at Rock Glen again , a place we truly enjoy. Very warm overnight, windows open fantastic fan blowing and at 5 am still 68F (20C) outside. Think time to take our comforter off the bed., maybe. We did get some rain and for a few hours this morning and mostly rain ing off and on most of the day. So awning deployed and secured we are good, still 70F outside but overcast.
     I forgot to mention last night setting up our satellite dish was not getting a signal, so gave up and blamed it on the cloudy weather, plugged in our DVD player and watched a movie. Tried the dish again this morning, called Shaw and still no luck. In all my years setting this up everywhere and other peoples as well, I was frustrated. Ok give up again, drive to the store and check our lottery tickets and while driving the 2 miles there and back in the rain. I got thinking (I always think better when driving around in the car) Check the cable ! I have 3- 50 foot cables. so I hooked up another and guess what?? IT  works. That cable can go right in the dumpster. Yahoo we have tv once again, Suzie is a very happy lady. We like to watch some news in the morning and a show in the evening.
    After lunch pouring rain again so I secured our awning set up our Weber Q and can now enjoy some reading outside again sheltered from the rain,  now down to 68F but still comfortable out here. Took a break and defrosted our fridge, and while doing this I had to rearrange the shelves a bit to make room for the Draft keg of Heineken beer my cousin Marie and Frank gave me for my birthday, I can always make room for beer in our fridge. Now to let it get good and cold and enjoy some good draft beer in a day or so. Then back outside again more reading to do.
fridge defrosted reorganized
and our mini keg in place
      Now enjoying our outside reading for a while, Gerry stopped by walking Tucker and of course he had to come and see Suzie! Tucker that is.
Tucker loves seeing Suzie 
yup it was a rainy overcast day
                We were invited over to Gerry and Melindas' for happy hour at 3 pm,  when Melinda was done work for the day.
love the skirting that Gerry is doing around their trailer
looks wonderful
           First thing there Tucker got all over Suzie again!
and he like to kiss her too!
Gerry being Gerry
tying to smile.
           Melinda got home after work and joined us in some fun conversation, Always fun times with these guys.
so nice to see these guys again when we can
     Soon time to head home and whip up supper. Tonight going to grill a couple of turkey breast medallions wrapped in bacon, They look so tasty and actually were done on our Weber Q.    
they looked tasty wanted to try them
20 minutes on the grill these were excellent
added to our salad
all cut up a lot of good eating here 
      Pretty much our busy , relaxing day. goit the dish taken care of dogies fixes fir Suzie a nice Happy hour and a tasty supper. Still overcast and cooler at 7 pm 61F no sign of a sunset but we can still enjoy a wonderful decent evening outside with our e-readers.

    1. It is nice to sit under the awning and listening to and watching the rain. This was the first I saw them as well, a very nice tasty treat they were too.

  4. "I can always make room for beer in our fridge." We share the same philosophy :D

    Do Gerry and Melinda own their space that they can make updates to their house? I have never seen turkey medallions at our HEB but they sure look good.

    This evening as I was watching Game 5 of the NBA playoffs I saw all the people standing out in the rain and had been doing so for hours...those are true fans!

    1. Lotsa room in the fridge may as well fill the empty spaces with beer. Works for us.
      They do own their park model trailer just pay the campground yearly fees plus water and electric. The medallions were excellent. We will do them again some day.
      Standing in the rain is not the way I would want to watch sports.

  6. Nice that you got a replacement cable and all works again. I'd miss our satellite too!
    We had the perfect amount of rain, not too heavy and it held off until later afternoon.

  10. Nothing more frustrating than the satellite not working if you are wanting to watch a show/news, what ever. I'm not much of a TV watcher, but when there's something I want to see - that TV better work! Lol!! Glad you figured it out!
    Always fun to spend time with friends - glad you ejoyed your time with them.
