Church and Flea Market

We went to church in Crum,WV where Don is the pastor. On the way back we had to take a short detour around this accident. We stopped and had dinner at the Golden Corral in Huntington. We all left with the feeling we over did it on our eating. After getting back home Don,Jackie and I went down to the flea market,but we couldn't find anything we wanted to buy. After getting back from the flea market and resting up a little bit it was visiting time again. We had a good time talking and laughing together.
Nancy and I are so glad we can spend extended visits with all the family.
We were going to leave tomorrow but Callie called and said if we would be here wednesday she would come from Princeton to spend the day. N000 problem,we have no plans and no schedule,so now we will be leaving thursday.

Rain


It rained off and on all night. It is a steady rain now around noon today. So looks like there won't be much going on today. A good day for sitting,visiting and talking. Hopefully later on the rain will slow down enough to get out and go somewhere.

Something needs attention

Well nothing exciting was happening today. Just a sitting around visiting day.
I did go to Lowes to get a board to use as a brace for the fresh water tank.
The plastic holding tank has been flexing and boke a board loose that has a door attached to it. The board will be on the side of the tank so when its full of fresh water it won't flex. It makes little difference if you're in a house or motorhome something always needs repairing.

Kentucky

We did get to Kentucky and down to Jackie's.
Well we got to her house after we went through Morehead and these two rock cliffs. It must have been quite a chore drilling and blasting through the rock.
We had a very nice trip there and back.

Still Hanging Around

This is the wiew of the West Virginia Capital in Charleston. The dome is painted gold.
Today was much the same as the last couple of days. Nancy and I did go to Walmart and I finally got the car washed which was long over due.
Tomorrow we are going to get Nancys sister (Jackie) and bring her over for a few days. The drive is a couple of hours one way so that will take up the day.

Goodbyes and Hello's

Well after a very nice and pleasant stay at Callie's we said our goodbyes. We had a very wonderful time thank you. We got on I-77 which is also the WV Turnpike. With the toll booths at three locations along the way it does cost quite a bit with a motorhome pulling a car. I sure hope they use some of that money to work on the roads. I don't recommend it for anyone to drive on. What do they do with the monies they get from the toll,casino's and the lottery?? We arrived at Peach and Don's around 2:30 and set up everything. I don't know how long we will stay here.
I heard our good friend Richard Barker was in the hospital so I called and talked to him for a while. It was good to hear his voice. Get well soon Dick.

Steak Again

Today was a repeat of yesterday. We went to the Texas Steakhouse with Callie and Jim again today. It wasn't the same one but the food was good here also.
They sure serve a good steak. We did not look at motorhome today either. We had a good time visiting and talking with Callie and Jim they are two very nice people.

Motorhome Looking

Nancy and I went with Callie and Jim today. Jim was wanting to look at the motorhomes down in Blacksburg,Virginia. We got started around 12:45pm so we stopped at the Texas Steakhouse first for a real good steak dinner. We kicked a few tires but they didn't have very many motorhomes on the sales lot where we were. Jim saw a few that he talked to the salesman about.
All in all though we had a real nice day.

Yeah,I found a barbershop


Yes I did. Do you know how hard it is to find a real barbershop? I've been looking in a bunch of places where we have been and every place has a hair stylist,but the barbershops are few and far between. So now I don't have to worry about that for a while.
Nancy and I went to the Mercer Mall to walk some today also. It has been long over due for our walking. Also Callie had some good delicious spaghetti complete with a salad and garlic bread.

A Little Everything

Last night was a good peaceful night. It was cool and good sleeping weather with the window over our heads open and letting the cool breeze in.
Today Callie bought a couple of "Little Caesar's Hot and Ready Pizzas" which are always good.
A little of everything was the weather today,sun shine and rain alternating most of the day. Still it was a good day visiting.
