Feb 19th to 21st - DHS

Feb 19th – Sat
It rained most of last night which resulted in some roads being closed where they cross washes but they were all open by the time we got going after coffee & breakfast. We filled a propane tank, got some new head covers for my golf clubs (some of the originals were ripping already!), went to Costco and then to WalMart.
We had an early dinner, dug out an umbrella as it was raining a bit, and went to a show here at the park. The guy (Bobby Freeman) sings, tells good jokes and plays a “Flaming Piano”. He has written many songs for well known singers and has quite a few number 1 songs of his own. The music was rock & roll – 50’s & 60’s. The limit in the hall is 175 people and there were 277 attendees so it was a good thing the fire marshal did not show up! After most people left, he continued to play and we then had room to dance. We didn’t even need the umbrella on the way back.

Feb 20th – Sun
It did rain again last night but not nearly as much as Friday night. We spent the day making arrangements for a visit from Dennis & Gloria, housecleaning (me, of course!), cleaning up emails, prepping for dinner and playing computer games (guess who?!). I finally got outside by taking out the garbage and stopping for a chat with Larry.
Our good friends Bob & Sue (former neighbors) came over for dinner. We had a lot of fun catching up with them as we haven’t seen them since last year about this time.

Feb 21st – Mon
We went on a drive today with Moe & Trish. They are looking for a motor home so we went to Coulton where there are 3 large RV dealers. We looked through 2 of the places and then had lunch at Denney’s before going to the 3rd dealer. There was a motor home there that was more interesting to Moe & Trish so the salesman had us take it for a test drive. He drove it to a parking lot and let Moe get familiar with it before directing him to the freeway for a short ways.
We headed back around 4, stopped at a grocery store and then went to Moe & Trish’s for a drink which ended up being a couple of drinks, of course!
Luckily, I had leftovers for an easy dinner. I chatted with Marg and found out that she still has not received her suitcase as it is tied up in Calgary in customs and a bunch of forms.
