Next to no rain today, awesome, our friends head on out, and we enjoyed a very nice relaxing quiet day.

Where are we today ?

        Don't think we had anymore rain overnight, at least I didn't hear any (hmm, maybe if I slept with my hearing aides in). But up early as usual and about 48F (8C) outside, not too bad at least no wind. You know when we thought about it this past winter in the southwest we have had some wonderful  weather, sunshine and no rain that we remember, until we got to Texas this spring. We had mostly sunny warm days. some wind but exactly what we enjoyed.  I got an early walkabout and tried for a picture of the Sailboat bridge still lit up over the lake into Grove.
this bridge looks amazing from our site
love the night lights on the bridge
      Next I put a pot of Hurst's Hambeen 15 bean soup on to cook, added a couple of smoked pork hocks for extra flavor and a bit of meat. Using the quick cook method it takes about 3 hours altogether, the longer the better I have found.
love this soup mix
      Shortly after 8:30 this morning Bill and Patsy were getting ready to pull out and hit the road  heading further east and north. After a couple hugs and wishing them safe travels they are on the road again.
just checking things out
safe travels guys
      Then I made a quick trip to the store to fill up our 5 gallon jug of RO purified water. And while in Grove I saw this amazing migration of birds heading north, Hundreds, if not thousands, many huge V formations, what an awesome site to see.
      Back home to finish this soup and enjoy a tasty lunch. We both enjoy this very tasty soup so thick and hearty, almost a stew, only available in the states, we will stock up before crossing the border.
removed the pork hocks and some meat for the soup
smells so good cooking too
oh yummy
          After another walkabout we almost had some sunshine. So set our chairs out and enjoyed some reading outside for a couple of hours, it did get to 66F (18C)  but still overcast, until a few sprinkles about 3:30. so chairs away again.
campground, quiet now before Easter weekend 
             While enjoying our e-readers we watch 2 couples of Canada geese squawking around, feeding and drinking from the puddles here.
love watching these Geese
             Soon time to whip up supper, tonight a small pork tenderloin loin roast on our Weber Q accompanied by a small salad and the rest of our cabbage, carrots and corned beef.
the pork done to perfection on our grill mat
with a nice Texas Rub we like
         Yup we had a feast, really hit the spot, very tasty and of course more left overs, always good for light lunches.
Yummy salad, roast pork, Corned beef, cabbage
and of course some applesauce
     That was our very relaxing day, not much rain, outside for some walkabouts and reading, just me and my sweetie, and a very tasty supper. This sure is the life we enjoy.
     Then we had a sunset  that was unexpected and kinda cool after next to no sunshine all day.
across the pool
right from our patio, very nice
      Thanks for dropping on by and hope y'all had a great day as well.
