Doorprizes and Dominoes

Sunday, July 6th

The kitties did not want to settle down last night since we came home later than usual. I had to fuss at them quite a few times to stop scratching at the bathroom door. I don’t know why they do it at night, there’s nothing they need in there, and they don’t want in there during the day. Anyway, because I was up late fussing at cats, I slept in a little more today. We finally got up and get going.

The RV Park was having a local RV dealer come in and sponsor a lunch, as well as see some of their coaches, and they give away door prizes. We headed over there about 12:15, and had hotdogs and hamburgers, chips, drinks and cookies. Not as good as Tony’s burgers/dogs, but can’t complain with free food. They finally did the doorprize drawing at 2pm. Tony ended up winning again, and we got a freestanding RV step – YAY! I’d been wanting one, for those times when the site isn’t level and the last RV’s fold-out step to the ground is a doozy. We also saw and visited with Dan and Ann, and met another couple that own a site here in the park. It was a nice time, not a high-pressure sales pitch at all.

We have a winner!

After the festivities, a brief sprinkle caught us on the way home, and cooled off the temps for a bit. After a little while in the rig and the rain stopped, we gathered our laundry. We’ve been on the road now for about 10 days, and needed to do some wash. So Tony drove me and the laundry over to the clubhouse, and I started our loads. The park had about 8 washers and 10 dryers, but they were nearly all busy the entire time. The whole process took longer than expected, as the loads were staggered based on machine availability. About 5:30, we finally finished up.

Dan and Ann had also invited us over for steaks and corn on the cob for dinner, so we took a few sides and headed over about 6. Dan cooked the steaks, and we had a great meal outside. We visited for a while, then had fresh Colorado cherries on ice cream, for dessert. We then played some Farkle (a dice game) and Chickenfoot (a domino game), until it got too dark to see the dominoes. We headed home about 9:30 again. I think for not doing much, we’ve done a lot! Especially visiting, which has been really nice.

Our wonderful meal.

Tomorrow, we ride the Georgetown Loop Railroad and Lebanon Silver Mine Tour.
