Winter Excursion 10, Day 61

Around lunch time we went over to the Kids house. Brian and I taped off the new front door and he started the staining process. It is going to look great, by it will take around five coats!
We all left for a movie around 1500. For the past week or so we have been watching all the Avatar flics. The new one (#3) just came out and we got to see it in 3D. It was fabulous!
After the show everyone went to Evos Pizza for a late dinner. It was really good as usual.
We were home by 2100 and in bed by 2130.
Tomorrow is pack-up and say goodbye day!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 60

It was a very lazy day! We are still recovering from all the festivities!
I did a small rework on the extra sewer hose carrier. I was not happy with one of the clamps, now I'm happy.
We hung out at camp all day and yakked with a few of the neighbors. I did a walk around the campground and picked out the sites we would like for next year. This site tends to flood when it rains, like 2 inches deep!
We got our KFC fix for dinner, watched a little TV, and hit the rack early.
Two more days here and we are off to Georgia.

Winter Excursion 10, Day 59

We got back to camp this morning around 1100. We had a really fun time the past few days with the Kids and Kiddos, but it was nice to be back to our tiny house.
We put away all our Christmas stuff and did a little camp maintenance.
We made a commissary run and picked up a few things we needed.
For the most part today we just relaxed, it will take a few days to recover from all the festivities! 

Winter Excursion 10, Day 58

Merry Christmas!
The usual Christmas craziness started around 0730. As the Kiddos are getting older we get to sleep in past 0400! 




After breakfast it was time for Brian and I to go to work. Here's my work outfit.

Kennedy helped me with the new wig and beard. This suit is really hot and with the warm weather it was an uncomfortable four hours at Brian's Club. We got back home around 1500.
Christmas Dinner was fantastic. We had a beef tenderloin done on the grill rotisserie with all the fixins'.
After we got everything all cleaned up we watched another movie, but only a few of us made it through the whole thing. These crazy days and late nights are getting to us older folks! LOL!  


Winter Excursion 10, Day 57

We left camp this morning and drove over to the Kids and Kiddos house. We will be spending the next two days there.
The weather here has turned very warm. Our temps are in the high 70s and forecast to stay that way for awhile.
After all her baking Cath finally put out a plate of cookies! After all it is Christmas Eve!
They were gone in an hour, so she put out some more.
We had our traditional Low Country Boil for dinner.
After dinner we watched National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. I think I see something new each time I watch it. 
After the movie it was off to bed. Santa's coming tonight!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 56

We made a quick trip into town to pickup shrimp for our Low Country Boil tomorrow and a few pounds for ourselves. We dropped off two pounds at the Kid's house and vaced up our two pounds back at camp and froze it. The shrimp in this area is the best!
We spent the afternoon in camp getting everything ready for Christmas.  I even washed the truck! 
Tomorrow we will head to the Kids & Kiddos for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. 
We made our World Famous Wings for dinner, they are always good.

Winter Excursion 10, Day 55

I thought we were going to have another relaxing day. I was wrong. It was laundry day! The best part was we finished in about 2 hours as we used the local laundromat. 
We stopped at Lidl Grocery again. We wanted to pick up some of their soft pretzels and rolls. The rolls reminded us of the brotchen we remember from Germany.
The rest of the day we did a little camp maintenance and chilled.
We grilled a steak, air fried some French fries, and made a tossed salad. My favorite meal!
