Tuesday, Nov 13th

Another chilly day in the sunny south.  I believe the daytime high was 64 or 65F, for my metric followers, that would be something like 15 or 16 C.  I still had shorts on for that part of the day, but had to go to the long pants in the evening.
  We hung around the house the first part of the morning, after yesterday I had to set the brakes up a bit on the cart, but it is running great.  About mid-morning Marg went down to the hall and a couple of them cleaned up the bingo machine including washing all the balls.  While she was doing that I went down to see Jim.  They had a real bad water leak in their 5th wheel in the night and he had a fall hurting his arm, so I went to see if he needed any help. 
  A couple of the guys rented a driveway/patio washer.  They were doing some driveways in the park, its kind of like a very large floor washer.  It has a large gas ending to provide pressure water to feed a rotary pressure wand that is operating like a floor finisher.  It worked pretty well and left the driveways very nice, the road way not so much.  We never had ours done as we washed it when we first arrived and it was too much work to empty it now.
  When I got back I went with Marg for a few groceries.  First I stopped to take the puller back to OReilly's and I was surprised to learn they were prepared to refund the entire amount, it was a FREE loaner.  I wanted one for myself to do the cart at home, so they gave exchanged it for a brand new one.  What a great service.  Then it was over to Walmart for some groceries.  Very busy in there today. 
  We got back just at lunch time and right after we unpacked, Marg got a few visitors.  Time was wasting, so I skipped lunch and went to play pool.  The guy I was playing was really giving me a lesson for the first few games, but I did manage to win 3, so not too bad.
  Happy hour was at Kenny & Doris' and theirs was one of the very clean driveways.  There were about 20 or so today. It was a good opportunity to solve all the major world problems over a beer, as usual.
  Supper tonight was chicken in the slow cooker.  Marg puts the potatoes and vegetables in with it and it comes out sort of a cross between a stew and swiss steak.  It was very good anyway.  Dessert was apple pie and ice cream, it just doesn't get any better than that.  It was a bit of a rushed affair as it was bingo night.  We always sit with the same two couples and one of the gamblin gals.  Marg was the only winner at our table tonight.  A successful evening.
