Awake: 6:44am Temp 64 sleep 6+42 fog…then mostly cloudy overnight @ Mission, TX.

K & I do 30 min of exercise with Gilad on Fit TV.

Later, in prep for us leaving tomorrow, I use Gary’s 7 ft ladder that Kathy had used yesterday to clean our front windshield & mirrors.. Someone told us: if you’re anywhere in Texas, you’re going to have dust & they were not kidding. Then out comes my 12 ft telescoping ladder to clean all (4) slides & they too, were very dusty + some tree residue.

On the occasion of Washington’s Birthday, Kathy does (2) loads of laundry.

G & G go to the hospital this afternoon to get Gary’s final results from all his testing. Later they visit us with the results: an enlarged heart; shortness of breath; hypertension; unstable angina & sleep apnea. Gary was somewhat disappointed; he expected that they would find something that he doesn’t already know he has.

In my casual walking around the motorhome & checking various systems, I notice water dripping from underneath our Aqua Hot System. Further investigation reveals a small leak from a water line coming from the Aqua Hot but it’s not the anti-freeze solution. Later I bring this to Gary’s attention. He says he could fix it in (2) hrs. At this time, I’ll simply shut down the water feed when not using water & take my time deciding where & when to fix it.

Kathy wraps those (23) grapefruit she picked in newspaper, packs them in a box & I store them in the unheated basement storage cabinet. She puts about 6 more in the refrigerator.

Our travel plan for tomorrow might be changing; this afternoon, the weather channel started warning travelers in Texas of a potential big, bad storm brewing in the vicinity we’ll be going. Kathy was uncomfortable about plan (A) & Gary asked me what I think about this; I tell them both I’ll have a decision before 5:00pm; I didn’t tell them which day though.

Terri sounded a little disappointed when I asked her if we could delay our arrival by (2) days into her Hidden Valley Campground; she was nice enough to honor our reservation until Sunday though.

6:30 dinner for (4); Pork chops with sautéed apples & sweet potatoes + a mixed salad. We chat for over an hr with G & G afterward.

Late DVD movie from the G & G collection: “Flags of our Fathers.” We watch ½ of this true story about the challenge of taking Iwo Jima from the Japanese during WWII.
