Wednesday

A busy day in the sun.  The temp was nice, but they are calling it a cooling off period.  I think we only hit the high 70's today and the wind blew pretty serious at times.
  It was golf with the park day, so that meant tee the ball low into the wind.  I drove today and Stan and Gary rode with me.  Gary is back here for a few days as his work contract had a bit of a lull.  The game was OK, but the short game left a lot to be desired.  I think I left at least 4 putts short.  There were fewer people today and apparently next week about half of them will be gone.  Let the exodus begin.  Marg worked on the veggie prep and had them and the mini potatoes all ready to go.
  When I got back it was in time to put them on the bbq to roast them for the spring lunch.  Marg had signed up to provide enough for the 12 people at our table.  She had turnip, green beans, carrot, asparagus and mini-onions.  It was a big hit.  The central dish on the dinner was ham with everyone bringing the rest of the meal.  The food was incredible and we over-ate for a mid-day meal.  Doris had made pies and we had a healthy slice of pie for desert.  We never had any wobbly pop as we planned to go out after lunch and with the amount of food it already felt like nap time.
  After we went back to American Home Furnishings to get a bed for the unit.  We had pretty much decided which box/mat we wanted, it is a Simmons model. At the store we saw lots of cool stuff, but Marg fell in love with a dinette that is on the small side with 4 chairs, so we signed up for it as well.  They are both scheduled for a Friday delivery.  Could have bought lots more there, but with 86 cent dollars, we want to wait for next year for some of it.  On the way home we stopped at Costco where we got a bed frame [it was $25 less here] and some pillows, mattress pad, and a few other things.  Then on the way home we also stopped at the place that sells the carport and accessories for park models and got a few things.  The bed frame is so long that we had to drop the back seat so it could pass through the trunk into the car, fortunately an option the car has.
  Got back just in time to put a few things away and then went to Bud & Lynette's for happy hour.  There were lots of folks there, including Pat & Diane who are leaving for Saskatchewan tomorrow.
  Then it was back to the m'home where Marg got the laundry ready and I helped her get it to the laundry room.  Four loads as she washed bedding, including some of the new stuff for the park model.  Laundry not being my thing, I went and played poker.  We had a good turnout and I made a couple of bucks.  Here again, some of these folks will not be back as they are leaving before the next game.  Supper was a sandwich as we were still full from the huge lunch.
  Will get some new pics of on the blog when the furniture arrives.
