Sat - Feb 24/18


Last night I couldn't connect to Stu's Wi-Fi. It would have been too late by the time I packed up the computer and went to the MPR, so I did Friday's blog first thing this morning.

Congrats to Canada as it is assured of its highest medal count ever at a Winter Olympics and that's without expected contributions in sports it normally dominates. The medal count won't be available until later; however Canada should end up in 3rd place behind Norway and Germany and ahead of the USA based on the current projections.

Again the temps will be in the high 80's F. Judging by the fact the overcast burnt off before 9 a.m. I am hoping it won't be as humid as yesterday.


We left for the MPR at 10:30 a.m. just after Innovation Nation finished on TV. Today's task was our last (I know I've said that before) No-Sew Quilt. The sewers already there were spread over the long tables so Charlotte couldn't join 2 together as we did before. We used one of the short straight tables. It wasn't large enough; but at least better than the round tables.


Once again, Charlotte got "Knotty" (grin) tying the paired just cut slits together. My job was pulling the pins out as she went along. As usual, it was completed (with the two of us working) in two hours.

We returned to the motorhome for lunch (darn). With my expert touch (Index Finger) I programmed the microwave and in 15 minutes was serving Marie Callender Turkey Pot Pies for lunch (w/fruit cups for dessert). I usually use any excuse for a meal out as it usually involves a road trip; however we have to start clearing out the Freezer in prep for our trip home in a few weeks.

After lunch I did a "Dump". No, not that kinda dump! (grin) I emptied the RV's sewage (Black Water) tank. It was not full; but it will be soon. Since it would have to be done when we leave anyway this will even out the process.

With yesterday being so busy there are no major plans for today other than tonight's show in the Rec Hall. With more clouds than sun today it was good just good to relax and watch TV.



Tonight's show features Homer Stiles. He is from nearby Ocoee, FL about 40 miles from OMS. He is a regular (yearly?) performer here at the park. He brings the Country and Western music theme to the park requiring that many Cowboy hats come out of the closet for the evening. Line Dancing will be a "must". We have enjoyed his show in the past and I am sure the trend will continue.

We will try to be on time for the show to be able to get a seat. It starts at 7 p.m. According to Bill's Rule: "#23  RV Park Event: being there a half hour early means you are already 15 minutes late" means to not be 15 minutes late we will have to be there by 6:15 p.m. Good luck with that, EH! (grin)

Today's blog will be "Pre-published" as the Wi-Fi will not be available with the show ending at 10 p.m.
