A New Table

February 22nd - Saturday 80 degrees rain

Today was the day to get caught up with laundry, housecleaning and odd jobs.  That is exactly what we did.  We both slept in until 8:30 am, which I have to admit seemed pretty darned good.  We were awakened early before sunrise by a downpour of rain.  As Lou said that should wash the pollen away, as I have been having a problem with breathing and today was a bit better; however, the humidity was high.

After breakfast, Lou helped me carry the laundry up to the laundry house, where I put four loads of laundry into brand new washer and dryers.  This is the first time we have had to pay to do laundry since we left home.  We have been very fortunate.  Today it was $1.75 per load to wash and dry.  Lou was in 7th heaven, as next to the laundry room was a pool hall and a fellow just waiting for a partner.  The fellow was also from Pennsylvania, so he and Lou played pool while I did laundry.  We got it all washed, dried, folded and just as we started to carry it home, it started to rain again.

We got all of the laundry put away, bed made up and had a nice lunch and Lou tackled the job of putting our new table together.  We had found this table at Camping World and thought it would work better than the one that we have, as it is smaller and this one we can leave up all of the time and will slide under the sofa and work better all the way around.  After he finished getting it together, he worked on the computer for the rest of the afternoon, while I cleaned.  We finished about the same time and decided we would go out for dinner.


  We had planned on going to the Canada Dinner here at the park, but when Lou found out it was a Dinner/Dance, he decided he didn't want to go.  So we had dinner on Krista and Steve at Cracker Barrel and for dessert Lou chose Chocolate Coke Cake, which is a dessert that he has never had before. This is a dessert that Al's sister-in-law always made and a favorite of our family.  Lou truly enjoyed it.
