        Another wonderful sunny warm day ahead of us. Coffees and computing taken care of then a few walkabouts the park  for a while. Spotted the Geese in the pond by the fountain and the 2 families headed up on to shore, boy are they growing !

heading out of the pond and up the hill

        Back by the coach again I noticed our resident Weasel, peak his head our from under the car. He moves so fast have not been able to get a picture of him yet.

        About noon Gerry had a break and came over to help me with installing the new part on our step. Not hard just need a couple of extra hands. I am getting pretty good at this (lotsa practice) and in 10 minutes it was all done and working like new again!

left this part broke  while ago ,
 on the right is just came apart
will see if it can be fixed

new part  installed

      After checking that it worked good, we checked a few more things.

I removed our top step cover because I found it
was not giving enough  clearance for the
motor to work maybe this will fix our problem.

         That  done then I headed inside to begin supper preparation for tonight's meal.  For supper tonight I am making some rolled ribs, I added sauerkraut to the pan as well, baked potatoes and a salad. For the recipe you can click HERE or my recipe blog top right sidebar. I did the Ribs in the oven 6 portions about 2.5 hours at 325f tightly covered with foil, and baked potatoes on our Weber Q, also our usual salad to go with it.

then outside to read for a while
before Happy Hour

       Just after 3 pm Gerry came over to join us with Tucker and Choco so Suzie got her doggie fixes.

always happy to see Suzie

Melinda done working and she joined us

        Just after 5 pm the ribs are done as well as the baked potatoes.

         Rolled ribs, baked potato, with sour  cream and fresh chives, to go with our salad.

this sure hit the spot another craving taken care of

Gerry, Suzie , Melinda all smiles.
what a feast we had

      Well, we fed our faces and enjoyed some lively conversation and eventually they headed on home, Suzie whipped up the dishes and we enjoyed more wonderful warm weather outside. Working on this posting, Then Paul and Judy dropped by for a visit while doing some laundry and we caught up with them for a while.
      Now here it is just about 9:30 pm still in shorts and t-shirt and 74F (23C) outside, really what is not to love about this weather? Then just after 9 another friend dropped by walking here dogs and chatted for a while it has been at least year since we have seen her and the pups.
