Awake: 6:10am Temp 62 sleep 6+40 Sunny elevation 993 ft.
overnight @ Maple Grove, Minnesota.


Our camp site is surrounded by trees so we have no DirecTV signal which
means….no news, no weather channel, no movies etc. But we do find things
to do throughout the morning & some of the afternoon. Kathy does some
dusting & organizing while I reorganize my closet & pretend I’m busy.

@ 4:30pm we drive the Suzuki down hwy 101 to Wayzata, WI (25 min)….to
visit & have dinner with Mary Lou & Bob, my ole Air Force buddy. We spot
their driveway immediately; since Mary Lou told us to look for the “For
Sale” sign posted by the roadside. A circular drive winds up in front of
this 3800 square feet house with huge tall trees & nice landscaping making
it look like a mini-mansion.

Mary Lou is sitting outside on their porch watching us drive up. We have a
nice chat with her before Bob arrives 35 min later. They both look
terrific. $1,175,000.00 is the price tag for this well built house with 4
bedrooms + too many extras to list. Bob finished the bedrooms upstairs
over the garage adding (2) extra bedrooms + adding air conditioning to
each room in the process.

7:15 dinner: Pork chops, corn casserole, potato salad, mixed salad,
homemade apple sauce and pickles & brownies ala mode for dessert. Mary Lou
is a wonderful cook.

We sit in their sunken den & talk for hrs + we are entertained outside
with the squirrels, birds & (2) deer walking around feeding off the
droppings from the elevated bird feeder. We are planning on spending
another day with Bob & Mary Lou tomorrow. Back to our bus @ 10:32pm.

Today’s high=81 Lights out: 11:39pm
