Awake: 6:24am Temp 43 sleep 6+03 sunny elevation 551 overnight @ Von Ormy, Texas.
Before breakfast & before exercising, Kathy gets right with the lunch preparation; then we both exercise with Gilad for 30 min.
Around 10:30am, I noticed this car driving around the campground; it drove slowly when passing by but I paid little attention. A few minutes later, a cell phone call; it’s Barb & Joe C. They are in our campground but don’t know where we are. What a surprise, we expected them around noon time. Kathy was glad she planned ahead & had most of the lunch preparations finished so she could sit & talk.
Barb & Joe look good. Joe is interested in seeing the outside of our motorhome & its systems before going inside, so I give him the twenty five cent tour. Inside, we talk & try to catch up on each other’s lives since we were together last April. Around noon time, G & G visit & join the rest of us for lunch. There is no shortage of laughter, especially if Gary is around; but because of that bubble on their rear tire, G & G have to leave the scene for their 2:00pm appointment for a tire replacement.
We do some more catching up with Barb & Joe, then say our goodbyes until we meet again. It was really good seeing them & we were happy that our rendezvous worked so well. They were part of the Alaska gang we were with on our 62 day Asian Pacific cruise during 2005.
After B & J leave, we visit with our next campsite neighbor, Tom, & his visiting buddy.
Since we had a fairly substantial lunch, wine with cheese + some raw veggies before having popcorn while watching the movie “21 Grams” should be sufficient.
G & G return around 9:00pm to their motorhome & walk over for a visit. The tire was replaced & they had a wonderful Chinese dinner.
Movie: “21 Grams” with Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro, Naomi Watts, etc. Three disparate people…an ex-con who has found religion, a woman who lost her family & a professor given a second chance at life….are brought together through unforeseen circumstances. 2003. Don’t even think of watching this movie if you’re the least bit drowsy. Kathy experienced that scenario & it was not good.
Much later, we watch the “O’Reilly Factor.”
