Good Morning??

Good Morning. I lost my font system. So I am typing in small letters. Sorry.
It is 7:10am and still dark. I do not like EDT.
anyways----- Wednesday before we left the State Park, we went back to Striplings, the little grocery that had the sausage. Bought more sausage, it is in the freezer now, and jelly. Also say some Gullah products. Gullah is the dialect used in some of the south east areas. So I bought a cloth wrapped (inside plastic) wrapped corn bread mix. Two years ago we heard a story teller that told Uncle Remus stories using the Gullah dialect.

Then on two the Twin Oaks campground. Full of RVs going to Perry for the FMCA convention. Nice campground about 10 miles away from Perry. Got parked and Bret and Dianne came in to the park. Talked with them awhile. They had the news that Caterpillar company had pulled their exhibit from the convention. OUCH Our Cat
Club, (for caterpillar engine owners) always had a booth at their site to let people know there was a club. Sign up and join, etc. Our Officers (past) tried their best to convince the powers that be to let us have our booth as usual. No way, not the rules. Soooo

We went to town for milk and bread. Came home and enjoyed happy hour with Bret and Diane. They are from Texas and were the first officers of the Cat Club. We are also Charter Members of that club.

Ernie is going out to put fresh water in the coach and then dump the black and grey waters. Full and clean is the way we like to go into week long rallies. No hook ups and it is a pain to move the coach to dump or get water. There is a "honey wagon" that will come around to dump your tanks, but we have never used it. We just try to use very little water. Showers are very short. GI showers or as Diane says a Boat shower. And we always carry 2 - 3 extra bottle gallons of water for use.

Better get busy and do my chores to get us ready to go down the road. See you. jkc
