Apr 25th to 28th - Spokane

Apr 25th – Sun – Spokane
It took me a while this morning to update my blog as I was 4 days behind and Bill came over for coffee so I kept getting sidetracked with conversations. Luckily, I got it posted before Georgia joined us or it might never have been done.
We all started watching a DVD of Terry Fator the ventriloquist. We had watched his Las Vegas video with B&G and we liked it so much that we bought it. But today we were watching the “extras” which were the producer/writer/Fator commenting on the show and then the puppets “commenting” on the show. Very good if anyone has a chance to see it.
In the middle of watching, I made a breakfast sandwich & fruit salad for all of us – by this time it was noon!
I did a few chores and then went to help Bill with his computers. He has been having problems with Picasa and it took a long time to find an answer (on the Picasa forum) and get everything to run.
Another good shared dinner after which we left fairly early so I could make some phone calls.

Apr 26th – Mon – Spokane
Terry joined Bill & friends to play golf early (tee time of 7:30!) this morning. I was going to play but wimped out when Terry said it was windy and the temperature was 39 degrees. I was barely up & dressed when they returned as they play a 9 hole course and it was warm in bed.
I made breakfast and got a roast in the crock pot for dinner. We spent some time with B&G and Picasa lessons before I came back to cook the rest of dinner. We eat at B&G’s since they have more room and, more importantly, a dishwasher.
After dinner, we all watched Dancing With The Stars.

Apr 27th – Tues – Spokane
We got up early this morning to take the 5th wheel in for the complete spring system overhaul. Anyone who has read my blog will say – Again??!! Note the word “complete”. It seems there have been problems from day one that have been made worse by incorrect repairs so Pohl Springs gets to fix it.
We had breakfast, visited a friend at Whites’ Boots, picked up our mail, went to an RV supply store and headed back to B&G’s. They were out so we continued on to Home Depot. Bill called to say they were on their way home so we returned as well. Shortly after, Pohl Springs called to say the rig was done so Terry & Bill went to pick it up.
The rain stopped later in the afternoon so Georgia & I went for a walk. Georgia had a pot of stew on for dinner for us all – fitting for the cold day.
We continued the Sequence game that we started on Friday but the break did not do the guys any good. We had to quit early so we could watch the DWTS results show.

Apr 28th – Wed – Spokane
Bill brought warm muffins with him when he came over for coffee. They were all gone by the time Georgia joined us! We spent some time showing B&G photos and telling stories that went along with them before we headed out to do some more errands.
We went to Cabela’s to get some Force Fins for my sister Marg when she uses her pontoon boat for fly fishing. We stopped at Eggers’ meats for some cube steaks (only theirs will do) and then on to WinCo for groceries.
We put everything away and went to B&G’s for dinner where we were joined by neighbors Lonnie & Cindy. Lonnie & Cindy had to leave shortly after dinner so we watched “Wild Hogs” with B&G.
