OK so this place is so beautiful, right on the interCoastal and the landscaping is phenominal. The weather has been perfect every day and have no complaints. We took a Gullah Tour and learned a lot about the early slaves that settled here. It was great, and then on the way home we went to the Harbor Restaurant on Skull Creek and had the best seafood. Cutie waiter too, (did I write that out loud?)
Tomorrow morning moving on to Brunswick Ga to try a new RV resort, will let you all know. Yes I said you all......don't panic till I say y'all. Won't be long. Gettin' in to this southern lifestyle. Haven't been weighed since I left NY but there is a WW in Brunswick so I had better face the music, we haven't been all that good. Really don't want to undo all the good I did.
To make things worse Bob is a hungry heifer. LOL. Think it is just boredom. Anyhoo.....all this must come to a halt before we pork out like last year.
We will have the awning fixed in Ga and doggie is fine so nor glitches right now. Hope to be more active in the next place, only walked twice here so need to kick that one up.......leg hip and back not cooperating tho. Ouchie. Also legs very swollen right now. Cannot figure out just why. OK enough of that duffer talk......on to the next adventure........join me next time in Georgia

The end of Jan 2010
January 29th and we are camped in Sunshine RV resort for a couple days until our gig in Llano. The visit with Aunt Vicki was really good for my heart, felt like I was with my Mom for a little bit. She is such a mix of people I love, she's like Mom and a lot like Deb. She would give you the shirt off her back and she certainly cannot afford it. I love her and it was sad saying goodbye. A good time was had by all I think.
We are spiffing up the MH for our little trip to Mercedes. Even gave the girlies a bath. We shall arrive in Llano smelling good.
Not much fallout from the fall, boy am I a lucky duck or what? Could've been so much worse if a break or sprain or something. Thank God for little or not so little favors.

San Antonio-Jan 26th
Hey There...well here we are in New Braunfels, a quaint little german town near San Antonio. The weather was gorgeous yesterday and we went into San Antonio to the River Walk and to the Alamo. It was fantastic. Ate lunch at a restaurant called Michelinos. It was really good.
On the way out of the Alamo, ole Grace here, wasnt paying attention to where she was walking because there were a group of soldiers doing a promotional ad and I was trying to get a picture and up pops a curb in the middle of nowhere...oh yes I did a triple gainer right there on the plaza in front of the Alamo......me and Davy went down at the Alamo. Luckily I did a pretty good roll till I landed on my arse so not much damage was done. The worst damage was to my dignity. I wonder how many photos I will show up in later :(
It really was a great day, perfect weatherwise and the boat ride was great.
Have been visiting with Aunt Vicki and we are having a great time. We are leaving tomorrow so probobly will spend the day with her. She looks so good and is in really good health for 83. I love her.
We found a wonderful casino in Kinder, La called Coushatta. They had a lot of extras there such as a self service bar where you could help yourself to coffee, soft drinks, cappachino, teas, and even 2 flavors of icees. They even handed out boxes of popcorn while you were playing. I thought the place was really cool.
My friend Vicki did really well there, she couldnt seem to do any wrong. She sat down next to me and proceeded to win almost a 1000 dollars on a 2 coin bet. It was uphill from there. I just kept donating to the people. Anyhow, I was very jealous but glad somebody won. (of course I wished it was me)
Tomorrow we will be in our way to Mercedes for our month stint at Llano Grande. Vicki and Steve will be there so we should have a good time, they will be there for a couple weeks with us before they are on their way to New Mexico. We will see some of our other friends there as well. Going to play a lot of card, new games and old. Should be a good time.
I am really enjoying this lifestyle, its kind of fun just staying somewhere when you like it. This place is pretty nice and if I wasnt visiting family I could get into some activities here. They have many. Maybe next year. Who knows.
We are buffeting our way across the US and it is not good. Moo Moo Moo. Starting to crave veggies and fruit. We have decided no more fast food. We ate pretty healthy for a few days and we feel so much better. I have to stop drinking sweet tea so have tried ordering water instead. Man, that tea is yummy.
Missing my friends at home but not the weather, it is hard to believe there is snow somewhere and I have to keep reminding myself that it is January.
So, until we meet again..........happy trails my loves.

January 17th
We are in Marksville Louisiana at a place called the Paragon. It is really a fun place to be. The casino is fabulous (except for the smoking). They have a great RV park with all the amenities. The casino has fabulous gift shops, high end stuff that is not so expensive. Some great purses. Also the lobby has 3 theaters, an events center, live alligators and shows in the lobby. A hotel, and probobly a lot of stuff I didnt see.
Today would have been the boys 42nd B-day and I am missing him so much. Been thinking of Trishie all day too. Still cannot believe he is gone. I love you Baby. Happy Birthday my sweet. I hope he is having the best party ever.
One more stop (casino) and then on to San Antonio. (or Austin) and after that we will be in Mercedes Texas from 2-1 to 3-1
Hard to believe December is gone and January is almost past. Most of the end of Dec is a blur as I was sick sick sick. Terrible cold and bronchitis and the hack lingers on. The last thing we did was Christmas at the club house and then I was down for the count. I totally missed New year's eve.
We found a couple of great little churches in the area. One called South Baldwin Christien Church and the other was Calvary Chapel of Fairhope, Ala. Both great and we love the people at both. We were even going to bible study till I got the creeping crud.
We ate cerainly not losing any weight here though. Found some great feeds though. Yeh, right just waht we need. When I say tanks I dont mean thank you. yipes.
Coming home with a few good recipes......the best one is apple cheese. Oh man it is sinful.
I should have brought all my scarves and ponchos that I made, I could have made a killing. It was so cold in Ala. I am talking the teens and people were freesing. I could have opened up shop.
I found a great vet (Dykes) a great groomer (Bonna) and a wonderful restaurant (The gift Horse)also found a great hairdresser. Kathy Cyr......all very important.
We bought Christmas decs and a little tree and decorated the MH. It looked real cute.
Moving on tomorrow, just casinoing around La for a few days and realxing. Doggies are great and loving life. They are so darned good. They love this life. Lots to see and do and smell. They are in heaven.pecially since this place is pillow and wuilt city. The motor home that is. Sorry if I am rambling but I just type as I think of it.
I am seriously going to try to get to this more often than once every month.....because I have the brain of a flea to remember what we did a month ago. It has been kinda slow but my memory just is all over the place. Oh, and BH has been beating the crap out of me in Canasta...I won today but my wins are few and far between. I could just throttle him.....and then he laughs at me. doughhead.
