Peru--day 2

We arrived Thursday in the rain, today it was misting out this morning.  No one complained.  Nice to have the wet weather. 
After a pitch in breakfast Ernie and I took off for town.  Investigated two antique shops, a craft barn and the farm store for some thistle seed to take home for our finch friends.  We have found that the farm stores have bulk thistle seed for 99 cents per lb. compared to the $1.10 or more for the packaged kind.
Also got some suet for the two woodpeckers that like our old pine tree.

We asked the pretty clerk at the farm store where was a good place to eat.  We like Harvey Hinklemeyers.  Yes, that is the name of the restaurant.  They had pizza, Mexican, and good sandwiches.
Like subs, roast beef, reubens, etc.   It was good food and a reasonable price.  We were about done eating when in came 6 more Hoosier Cruisers.  A good time, even if they would not pay our bill. 

Came back to the RV and took naps, talked with the neighbors and had a lazy afternoon.
Evening meal was another pitch in with the meat and drinks provided.  The most tender brisket we have had in a long time.   Good food, good friends, a good time.
After supper the young people in the group met at a good grassy spot and played games.  The Grandparents watched.  Altho a few were out there playing games with the grandchildren.  The
young left to go watch a movie, complete with popcorn and some mores.  What a way to end the day

Tomorrow is the circus parade and show.  Write later about that.  Have a good nights sleep.  jkc
