Easter Weekend

Saturday we had an Easter Egg Hunt at one of the parks in Chesterfield.  SIL Mark works for Chesterfield Parks and Rec and this was his event to run.

And then on Easter….finding the hidden eggs.

   
Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter.  We had a great weekend. 

Catching up

It’s hard to believe that its been over 2 weeks since I last updated this blog.  Nothing much to blog about.  We were busy cleaning the motorhome and doing some maintenance that needed to be done. Here’s Ed fixing a leak we developed in our windshield.  We spent some money, putting almost $2,000 into the back end of the car with new hubs, shocks and tires. It sure does ride good now.  Hopefully the car will go another 100,000 miles now. (I had previously 100 miles.Thanks Marsha)

Ed washed and waxed the motorhome and I cleaned all the windows inside and washed the screens. I think we finally have all the dust from the desert out of the nooks and crannies.

We also found time to play bingo.  We started out going to the VFW hall on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays.  Then we also discovered the American Legion hall had Bingo on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays.  We only ended up going to the AL a couple of times and didn’t really feel confortable there. 



Here we went with friends Paul and Marsha Weaver.

Ed won that night!!




 They also came over to our place to watch the ball game.  The Red Sox lost again!! Marsha is a very big Cleveland Indians fan and she never stopped letting us know that they were in first place.  That’s okay Marsha. The Red Sox will come back! (I hope)

Paul also figured out how I could get my camera set on a timer.  Thanks Paul.  Now we can take pictures of ourselves.  Maybe I’ll invest in a small tripod now.

We are now on our way to Virginia so spend Easter with Savannah.

Best Visits are Spontaneous

Noreen and David Becker are friends who we met last year when we worked in Lake George, NY.  They live a little south of Houston.  We knew they were leaving the 1st of April to start up to New York.  We were coming through Houston and decided to give them a call to see how far they had gotten. 
Much to our surprise, they were only about 30 minutes a head of us. We decided to meet up for a short visit.  They decided to spend the evening with us and were able to get a one night stay here in Livingston.  We had a great visit and went to the local VFW to play bingo.  Sorry to tell you Jeri, they hadn’t played bingo in years and they won also!! Guess we will have to take you someplace else to play instead of the casinos!!
This was something that was not planned but it sure worked out great.  They left this morning to continue their trek north.  There is still a lot of snow up in that area.  We won’t get there until the end of the month.  Sure hope its gone by then!!!
