A rainy day actually a nice change of pace at least it is not cold ! Opps car got stuck!

Where are we today ? 
 clic a pic to enlarge it
    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 few seasonal campers here and they have sheds
for their rv;s
a nice sheds the have and decks as well
the lake here is nicer on a sunny day
horse shoe pits
fish cleaning station
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.
yup we stuck
tractor here and a little tug we good
