Today was a nice sunny day but there was still a cool breeze, I tried to sit outside and read but couldn’t get out of the wind and found it quite cool so ended up retreating inside.

This morning John went and got fuel and I took advantage of his absence and did some cleaning. Around noon I went over to do some laundry and it was busy but not impossible, I wanted to get everything clean before going away tomorrow so that is done, now I just have to pack.

I went for my walk this afternoon and that is about it for today. We are looking forward to our trip into California tomorrow and now just hope we get some nice weather.

Again, today was another great gift of a day in the sunny south and we look forward to another good day tomorrow.

Today was what I call a real down day, we stayed home and did very little. The weather was pretty crappy, overcast, windy and cool all day, we didn’t even see a peak of the sun.

Today was the start of taking reservations here at the park for next year so this afternoon I walked down with our application and deposit and then stopped at Brenda’s for a few minutes. She had been saying she would like to see pictures of our “cottage” in Kincardine so I put my i-Pod Touch in my pocket and stopped to show her some pictures. She fell in love with the Touch, thought it was really neat and so do I. Actually I spent a lot of time redoing the photos on my Touch today and also reorganizing them on the computer. I also downloaded a couple of new games on the Touch so will have to try them out, so far my favourite is Bejeweled but I also like the Sudoku – makes me have to use my brain and give it some exercise – LOL!

Tonight we watched Keeping Up Appearances and again it was one we haven’t seen before – we are really enjoying seeing all these new ones as we thought we had seen them all. It is on Saturday and Monday nights, but the same show both nights, so as we had missed it on Saturday we got caught up tonight.

Again, today was another great gift of a day in the not so sunny south and we look forward to another good day tomorrow.

Today was pretty cloudy and cool, for the first time since I can remember I had on a sweatshirt all day.

This morning we took a quick run over to Mexico with Brenda & Steve, we wanted to get a painted lantern and some Kahula and I also got a cotton jacket. We were finished about 11:15 and when we went to come back we were about 5 minutes in line before we were through customs, we sure like that as we have been hearing that the waits have been 2 hours plus lately.

Brenda & Steve had to get home because of their dog so after they dropped John and I off we decided to go out for lunch and make a quick trip to the mall. We ended up at Cracker Barrel for lunch then I got a pair of running shoes at Marshall’s while John checked out Circuit City and Best Buy.

By the time we got back home I was feeling kind of crummy so I laid down and had a nap while John went for a bike ride. We had a light dinner after going out for lunch and now it is time for TV or reading. Again, today was another great gift of a day in the sunny south and we look forward to another good day tomorrow.
