Getting settled in Thonotosassa

The weather people say it will be cold this week end. It did not get below 60. Next week at night it might get down to 38. Now that will be cold.

Yesterday, Friday, we made a trip to Wall Mart. When we came off the interstate to come to the RV park here, a homeless man on the corner told us that our front tire on the car was low.

So we checked it when we got parked and by golly, it had a nail in it. So, Ernie put air in it and it held till we got there. A stop in the store to get milk and we started home.

I have the Christmas decorations all out. Put the small tree on the dash. I used the cushioned board I use when I play cards to put the tree on, with a manager scene and some lego angels.

I have several lego Christmas pieces. Santa, reindeer, snowmen and Christmas trees. than I pin some ornaments I got in New Mexico on the padded piece above the slide out. A few things stuck on the windows and Walla! I am done. The tree is one I made at a rally. Made of pins and crystal beads, with a string of lights in the middle. Doesn't look too bad from the street.



Today we made a trip to Ace Hardware to find some very small springs. One broke in the door lock system. So nice that Ernie can fix these things. ON our way to the store we went over the interstate. at the north and the south exits there were two men with cardboard signs, homeless, will work for food. We wondered if they knew each other and were plying folks for what ever they could get.

Later we went over to visit parents of one of our card playing buddies. We enjoy visiting with them and I like to attend their church. A Methodist Church, small, but bigger in the winter. Like ours used to have more people in the summer. Hope they have a Christmas Eve service, as that is something to go to different church's when we are out on the road at Christmas.



We found some snow crab legs for only $4.99 a pound. Very good.

Have a magazine and a book from the laundry building waiting. Later----jkc
