Awake: 7:14am Temp 45 sleep 6+59 sunny overnight @ Mission, TX.
30 min of exercise with Gilad this morning.
Gary & Grace have (2) sets of Walkie-Talkies, so they loan us a unit to make it easier to communicate without using our cell phone minutes. We also have a set of Talk-About’s & have used them on rare occasions.
Late morning, Gary invites me to join him in looking for an oil or fuel leak on the engine of their 1989 Georgie Boy motorhome. After about 1.5 hrs of crawling around & scrutinizing, we only found a few loose bolts on one valve cover & that slight oil leaking out was probably dripping on the exhaust manifold. After tightening the bolts, Gary revs the engine to obtain normal temp & we smell nothing but normal exhaust odors.
K & I leave @ 3:00pm for the 4:00pm Mass @ our Lady of Guadalupe. Today we take a different route & it’s shorter, so we are in church by 3:20. No problem parking or getting seating in an up-front pew. 15 min later, the church was fully packed again. After Mass, we stop @ HEB for some groceries.
6:15 dinner: Grace & Gary join us in our motorhome for Parmesan crusted Tilapia fish, brown rice pilaf, broccoli & red peppers + spinach salad. We have a nice chat session for an hr or better after dinner.
Kathy talks with Melissa in Indiana, PA. An old fashion winter is upon them & they are doing fine.
Late movie: “The Negotiator” with Samuel L. Jackson, Kevin Spacey, David Morse, Ron Rifkin, John Spencer, etc. One of Chicago’s top police hostage negotiators, (Jackson) is framed for embezzling money from his union’s pension fund & has a murder pinned on him, to boot. His only chance is to take hostages & clear himself with the help of another crack negotiator (Spacey). 1998. Highly watchable, if not 100% credible. Even Kathy thought it was a “sit on the edge of your seat” kind of story.
High temp=68 Lights out: 1:29am
