Awake 6:23am Temp 48 Partly sunny Overnight @ Newell campground
Attend 9:00am mass @ Sacred Heart church.
Kathy does 6 laundry loads today + we take good hot showers.
In my spare time, I do a self tour of the production line factory with
only a handful of workers on the job. The production line & service
factory workers are on a 10 hr day, 4 day week schedule. This is the
ideal time for me to really get up close & personal with the systems &
wiring before so many things get covered up.
Kathy goes for an hour walk in the surrounding neighborhood, trying to get
some much needed exercise.
One motorhome I hadn't seen in production before has a steam shower in the
back and trimmed out with marble. Fairly good size shower at that.
I talk with Sam about driving to Joplin, MO today in our Suzuki. We are
looking for a upgraded tow hitch for our car. Sam knows of 2 RV dealers in
Joplin. We spend 3 hrs total driving to the 2 dealers, inquiring about
hitches, then returning with nothing new. Jim & Betty walk over to our
site when we drive into the campground & we chat for 30 min.
Attend a fish fry dinner @ 6:15 @ the Sacred Heart community center,
sponsored by the youth of the parish to raise monies for the 2005 world
youth day. The food was not too shabby.
Mid evening: Some magazine reading...then we find a movie we feel might be
worth watching: "Three Mikes" with Jane Wyman. This film uses the actual
American Airline aircraft with their pilots & stewardises wearing the
official uniforms. It was actually to promoting flying & it worked. A
movie that makes you feel good.
High temp today=68 Lights out: 11:11pm
