Sherri’s alarm was going off and I was trying to find it but she had it on her side of the bed. The whole time it was going off I kept thinking to myself….please don’t wake the children…please don’t wake the children. Why…you ask…I need a few minutes to drink my coffee and ease into the morning without my two buddies climbing all over me.
Lucky for me they slept right through it and I was able to make it down to the kitchen and put the coffee on and set down at the computer to post. Before my post I had to check on the availability for us to stay at Hickory Creek park on Sunday night and Monday night. We also have to make reservations at Mill Creek Ranch in Canton for Friday night and Saturday night so we can drop Sarah off in Wills Point. Mill Creek Ranch is located in Canton Texas and from what I can tell is a nice park. I will give you a complete run down on it come Sunday night.
We will be leaving Hickory Creek Tuesday morning and going to Explore USA to drop the trailer off for some warranty work. We have a door between the kitchen and the bathroom that has a broken keeper latch at the bottom. It was broke when we picked the trailer up in December of last year and it and a few other items had to be ordered and shipped to Denton’s repair facility. Those parts came in months ago but we have been on the road and unable to schedule any time to leave the trailer to get them replaced. Now that we will be going out west we can leave it there and we will stay in motels until Friday of next week when we can retrieve it and head east to Arkansas.
We have many places to go and see in the next three weeks. No moss will grow on us for some time. We were very fortunate to get site number 91 at Hickory Creek for Sunday night. It is a supreme site that you must try to reserve if you are staying there while in the Lewisville Lake area. It backs up on the lake and is in full shade most all of the day. It is a shame that we have only two days to stay there but I am sure that we will have the chance to reserve it for a longer period of time later in our adventures.
Yesterday was filled with feeding the ducks and riding around the lake with the kids. This is such a beautiful area to stay in. I love the kids but I can’t wait to stay here some day just Sherri and I.
Most of the day was spent indoors watching cartoons and then I was allowed to watch the History channel for a while. Kris finally laid down with me and took a nap! I slept too for about and hour and a half…Was that nice. Sarah played on the computer while we both slept. We ate some lunch and then watched more TV. Soon it was time for Maw Maw to return from work and we got ready to eat and go swimming at the motel pool. We stopped and ate at the Log Cabin Grill and Market on Hwy 33. We all had a salad with chicken and it was tasty. Then it was time to go swimming.
I did not swim but Sherri took the kids in and they had so much fun. Several of the people that work with her met us at the pool and we all visited while the kids swam. Two hours at the pool and we were ready to go home. We turned in shortly after our return to the trailer.
What an adventurous day this has been…I am sure it will all start over here shortly…I hear my little buddies rustling around in the next room. I need to brace myself for the fun and excitement that is about to spill into my life here….

It seems like only yesterday that we were all counting down the days until your retirement.
Now there you are, out there, having fun. Do you wonder how you ever had time to go out to work?
