Wednesday - 25 Nov/15

The "Cold Spell" appears to be over. It was below 70 F when we arrived. It is now close to 80 F and partly cloudy.

Since our shopping trip yesterday Charlotte had the resources to make egg muffin sandwiches for brunch...mmmm good! Better than McD's.

We had Christmas in November on the Monday before our departure. This Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich Maker was our gift from our daughter Kat. She always finds neat stuff.

Liz got the double version from Kat. They had used there unit before we departed for the south and loved it.

Since it was brunch we naturally had dessert. The apple pie at Winn-Dixie yesterday was only $4 so we bought one. Charlotte warmed it up and it was good as any we have ever eaten.

I have been trying to locate a RV windshield glass company for the last few days. On the way the passenger side windshield had a traumatic experience near Fredricksburg, VA. It needs to be replaced. Normally a small chip can be injected with a sealing liquid and repaired to look like new. Unfortunately, when cracks radiate from the "Bullseye" the window needs to be replaced.

Most windshield repair companies only do autos and small trucks. Several of the  RV windshield repair services I contacted required I go to their facility. Finally I located Mobile RV Glass on the internet. They service the whole USA and would come to the RV park.

I called and gave the the required information that I found located in the lower corner of the windshield. The last line of the manufacturing info is the part number. In less than a half hour they phoned back. They ship to this area on Thursday which is Thanksgiving. This will postpone the unit arriving until the following week. We will then set up an installation time for the mobile installation which will be dependent on the weather.

Thankfully, this year I am on a new phone plan. ROAM Mobility. Their Snowbird Plan gives unlimited calling in the USA and back to Canada. It also provides unlimited texting, email and internet access. It starts with a 3 month subscription that is renewable by the month up to a total of 6 months. It required a special SIM card. This is available on-line and at various stores. I bought mine at STAPLES. As promised, service started up as I entered the USA. There was coverage all the way to Florida. Bonus: It costs less than my limited cell phone plan in Canada. I cancelled my Canada plan and will get a new Canada service when we return.

Our PM outing involved going to the Ocala Camping World which is actually in Summerfield which is closer to Lady Lake than Ocala. I picked up a plug for the hot water heater. The valve means I will no longer have to remove it when it needs to be drained for winterizing.

We also went to Wal-Mart in Lady Lake for to get 4 more pillows like the pair we picked up at the Walterboro Wal-Mart on the way south. We also picked up some other items we didn't know we needed.

Charlotte was thrilled to find a Fiskars Rotating Cutting Board.

• 14 x 14" mat rotates to help you cut squares of fabric at easier angles
• Self-healing mat provides a cutting surface that lasts longer than others
• Easy-to-read measuring grid makes accurate measurements a snap
• 30-45- and 60-degree bias lines make creating triangle and star shapes easy
• Lifetime warranty

This will make cutting material for crafts much easier and more accurate.

Our choice for this evenings meal was the Cracker Barrel in Lady Lake, FL. Great food as always. Charlotte found a nice sweater for when the weather gets cooler.

I found a Peanuts PEZ Limited Edition. I phoned Liz at work to see if she had this. Got the voice mail so I asked her to text me when she could. Text arrived. Purchase made.

Off and on light rain on the way back to OMS. The rain held off  while we unloaded the car. A little heavier later (after 6 p.m.).

No other plans except TV (Jeopardy, etc.) for the evening.

Note: Wi-Fi availability varies. Don't be alarmed if there is no blog on any given day.
