Tuesday, Mar 27

What a nice day, almost get tired of saying that - NOT, LOL. We had a busy day as we had some maintenance issues with our counter tops & table in the coach. The sides of the laminate finish were separating from the wood base & we were worried about them getting ripped off. When I took off a piece in the bedroom it had the manufacturers stamp on it, so I googled and found them in Iowa. Telephoned and they put me in touch with a technical guy who told us how to glue it as well as what to use. He then asked where we got their name & then what kind of coach we had & who built it as he was not familiar with this use of their product. Must have made for some interesting conversation around the coffee room. Anyway after a visit to the hardware store, we did as instructed and the counter tops are as good as new. Thanks to the power of the internet. Gerry & Deb C came over after supper, he to play pool, her bingo. Jerry B got conned in to playing bingo tonight so came and brow beat us guys into playing. I think the girls sent him. It was the last bingo of the season & the crowd was small, so we probably should have gone anyway. I would have got my butt kicked at pool, so no biggee. Well we were the lucky table. Gerry won the first game, Deb won the second and then Marg won twice. Let me tell you, I was the brunt of a lot of harrassement after that. Lots of laughs, and we came away with more than we started with. Nancy also won at our table, so it was a lucky table tonight. At intermission a few of us had ice cream, but it was also the end of season sale, so no drumsticks, just fudgesicles. Everywhere you turn it is the last something going on. The manager, Curtis, stopped to ask when we plan ot depart. It's starting to look like April 9th. If only it would quit winter back home.
