    Hiding rocks—— I leave one at each campsite we go to painted with my FB travel page address on it. Several have been found and people will leave me messages saying they found it and a little about themselves. Fun!

    “An Idiots Complete Guide To RVing” is a must for all RVERS, newbies or experienced. I have it too!

    Fifth-wheels can be HUGE! I definitely would not want to tow one around the parks. Great for full timers who stay in one place for a long time though. Just like the “park models” or other named “tiny houses”.

    Nice light rain yesterday. This area really needed it. Sunny and cooler today. I’ve only seen rain like this twice since last August when we left CT!

    Rye - What time is dinner? I’ve been wanting pot roast for months!! I need to remember to make one while hub is home. I can freeze the leftovers and enjoy them many more times.

    Okie

    On Sunday? Dinner is usually between 5:30 and 6:30. Just enough time to drive from OK to DFW - lol. John thinks pot roast should be a winter meal, but I’ve always loved it in the summer.

    Rye - I’m actually NW of Austin so I have plenty of time to make it for dinner. Ha!!

    Beth - nearly all the crew are Filipino. The executive chef is German and he is the one cycling the 61 miles of the canal today. :p The German food tasted exactly the same as in Dusseldorf. :laugh:

    We went to the Rumba classes and I enjoyed it, but DH didn't get on with it. The rythmn is more tricky.

    Then I had a nap and later we went off to the Arms and Abs class. :D I can feel my triceps!

    Classical concert before dinner and then dancing.
    Then a West End and Broadway show from the resident dancers and singers. It always fun with great costumes.

    I'm feeling reluctant to get changed, but feel I would like to. ;):* Haven't worn a short dress or skirt yet. Hmmm.

    Tomorrow is our last full day on board. I shall be so sad to leave as we won't be on this ship again. They are selling it next year. This is our third trip in the same cabin and we are very attached to the old girl. :'(

    Love Heather xxxxxxxxxx

    Donna how were your peaches? Love white peaches and black cherries with cottage cheese, tho the window for both is narrow. Resisted when the cherries first showed up, but Friday they were so big and beautiful and black that I succumbed. Even got two tiny white peaches. Hoping they'll sweeten and soften in the brown bag. The cherries are pretty but lacking that rich ripe flavor. That'll teach me patience!

    So far, the two I have had were run-down-your chin juice and delicious. I paired them with a cucumber and chicken sandwich. My neighbor’s cucumber garden runners over! I love cherries and they are good for my diabetes too.

    Ooh having one of my prepared salad bags. There's three servings in each bag, and I bought two bags so I'm set for the week for lunches! Pairing today's with chopped cucumbers and cottage cheese, Oh and a tomato. I have four tomatoes on the counter whining at me to be eaten. Haahaa!

    Looking at 90 degree and high humidity today. I was going to do some outdoor work I am waiting until tomorrow. I will work on getting our basement ready to paint. We plan to get new carpet. The carpet down there is 40 years old. I still like it but it is wore out.

    Rye: I can understand your thoughts on RVs. I don't plan to give up my home base and RV full time. I'm looking forward to "cruising" as we used to do on our sailboat. We'd go on a sailing adventure and come home again until the next one. Some were close to home, and some were ocean voyages up the coast to the San Juan and Gulf Islands, and then back home again. DH's health makes sailing impossible so this is our new plan for adventure and fun. Some people make it their new fulltime lifestyle. We're hoping to regain our old lifestyle, but on the land instead of on the water. :star: Your dad sounds like a wonderful man. I'm glad you'll get to see him in August. :heart:

    Lanette: I am so glad you shared the information on Terry. I hope everything goes well for her. :flowerforyou:

    Rita: I'm happy that you are enjoying your new lifestyle. :smiley:

    Heather: Take loads of photos of everything you love about the ship. It would be great if the eventual buyers will use it for cruising in a new area. :star:

    Rebecca: Wonderful Father's Day cards. :smiley:

    Allie: I love the photo of Kyle and Tracy, and wish them happiness. :flowerforyou:

    Margaret: Good news about your friend. I'm happy that she's getting her appetite back. :smiley:

    (((Janetr))): I'm so happy that your grandson was able to overcome a bad situation and eventually attain happiness. That is a great blessing. :heart: :flowerforyou:


    DH wants to go see his sister before her surgery, but that doesn't seem like a good thing for her. She is quite uncomfortable at this point and would rather see us after her surgery is done. She'd like a bit of time to heal. I am going to stay out of it, and leave it between DH and his sister.
