Awake: 6:36am Temp 57 sleep 6+27 overcast, then sunny overnight @ the State Park near San Felipe, Texas.
Before breakfast, Kathy & I walk the campground for 50 min of exercise. A lot of water can be seen throughout the campground; not so pleasant for the pop-up campers or tenter's.
Around 1:00pm, the (4) of us ride to the town of Katy (23 miles) where Gary gets a prescription filled @ Walgreen’s & I buy a loaf of roasted garlic Artisan bread @ Brookshire Brothers grocery. From here, we program our Lady Garmin for Carol & Jay’s home in West Houston.
We arrive @ C & J’s place around 3:00pm. Both Jay & Gary are NASCAR fans so they have a lot to talk about. While we are outside talking with a nearby neighbor about anything & everything, Zack calls from Seattle: he is having some car repair work done on his 1995 Camry & is curious about a few items on the mechanic’s list. “Are they necessary & valid” he asks. After some detailed discussion of a high technical nature, we both agree that he should let the mechanics do the suggested things. Our son Zack sounds good.
In the back yard screened-in patio of C & Jay’s large home, we enjoy gabbing for hours, snacking & sipping a little wine before being called for Carol’s dinner of: fresh grilled salmon (done perfectly), salad, au gratin potatoes, and warm rolls. Fresh strawberry shortcake completed the delicious meal.
I’m not sure when we left C & J’s place; Jay gave us directions to the nearest & most convenient gas station & while I filled our tank, Jay called to tell Kathy that her prescription sun glasses were left behind. He was kind enough to drive over & personally hand them to her. That was a close one; Kathy depends on her sun glasses during these many sunny days. Using our Lady Garmin, our return trip to the State Park was uneventful. We found out later that C & J really enjoyed meeting & spending time with G & G.
