Winter Excursion 10, Day 145

I took Cath to her hair appointment this morning at 0830. After that she met up with her friend and they had a lunch date and a shopping day. She picked up some nice new jeans which she really needed. They look great! She didn't get back to camp until almost 1700! I was worried they were lost!

I spent the day in camp hanging out with one of the maintenance guys. We drove into town with the maintenance truck and picked up one of the lawnmowers they had repaired.

I did make a quick trip to an Ace hardware store for a few things I needed. There just happened to be a Burger King right next door. I could not pass up the chance to get a Whopper!

We will be back to work tomorrow.

Winter Excursion 10, Day 144

We had another nice lazy morning. We did some pancakes and sausage on the flattop.

We did go into town and did some grocery shopping in preparation for our four days "ON". It was actually a day early, but Cath is having a spa day on our last day "OFF" (hair dresser & shopping with one of the Kiosk Gals).

Once again it has been a nice few days off and we again spent the late afternoon outside watching the sunset.

All is well in the Boss Camp.

Winter Excursion 10, Day 143

The weather continues to be nice. Light wind, high in the low 80s.

Once again we spent the entire day in camp doing some small maintenance projects we had put off due to storms or cold temps.

We played some cribbage outside for a change. Cath cheated and won! 

We are enjoying our days off being as we are able to be outside. The pollen was not too bad today and we hope it stays that way. The pine trees pods don't look to "full". We think it got knocked off in the storms. Time will tell.

Winter Excursion 10, Day 142

Our first of four days off and we hung at camp most of the day. We got the site all cleaned up from the recent storms, rinsed off the camper (pollen), cleaned off the awnings (pollen), rinsed off the truck (pollen), and washed the our Host Cart (pollen). Can you tell we just love pine pollen!

We did run into Gray to the Tractor Supply for propane, bird seed, and new work gloves.

We sat outside in the afternoon and worked on our tans. It was in the 80s today!

Take out pizza for dinner and we got to enjoy a nice sunset. 

It was a nice day off.

Winter Excursion 10, Day 141

Our last day "ON" and it was an easy one compared to yesterday. A few campers out and a few in. The Airstream folks are doing fine and like the campground.

The weather has been perfect and we are keeping our fingers crossed that the storms, heavy rains, and high winds have kept the pine pollen down this year. Time will tell.

The find of the day was this gold ring.

I think it's from the Viking Era. You can tell by the runes. It's probably worth at least a half million!
  

Winter Excursion 10, Day 140

The Airstream caravan arrived today. I spent the morning cleaning and raking all 19 sites they are going to occupy. They started arriving around 1100 and by 1400 they were all here. Almost every site in the campground has an Airstream on it! They will be all leaving Tuesday.

The find of the day was this catfish.

The little guy caught it at one of the pavilions on the point. It was dan near as big as him!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 139

Another easy day, so I took the time to blow off debris from the boat ramp parking lot and roads with the backpack blower.

Spring has sprung here and the campground is starting to turn green, but the pine pollen is still bad and getting worse.

The find of the day was bike helmet light.

It still works, but the strap is missing. I'll figure a way to attach it to our host cart.
