Awake: 6:42am Temp 57 sleep 6+55 sunny overnight @ Watertown, Wisconsin.
Larry visits early; he, Alex, + a few others will be going to Sallie’s old homestead farm @ 10:00am. “We’ll be moving a few things” he says. “Do you need any help” I ask. “That would be nice” Larry replies. When Kathy finds out just how many other people are going besides Larry, Alex & me, she, not wanting to be left out, quickly changed clothes & got right in line with the other ladies.
Besides the above, Sallie, Cindy, Claudia, Don, Kathy & one hired hand by the name of Mike joined in the moving venture.
This gathering was better than we expected; from several storage buildings + (2) garages & overhead workshop, we moved collectibles, antiques, tools, etc. A most impressive accumulation of extra large & heavy crock pots, heavy & many sizes of cauldrons, large milk cans, not so special chairs & many, many other things too numerous to mention. It was a good workout for all of us.
Back to the house for a 1:30 lunch; afterward, Claudia agrees to help Larry with his computer in downloading programs that were erased when MicroNet fixed it. Now is the time I figure to reposition our coach for an easier departure coming up soon. Tomorrow, more people will be arriving for the 4th of July & we don’t want to be boxed in with more cars.
Kathy retracts the slides while I disconnect the water, sewer & shore power. As it was, (3) cars had to be moved & more maneuvering than I anticipated was required. In our new parking spot, we have only electric, but no backing up or maneuvering necessary for departure.
After showers, Larry & Sallie have visitors: Chuck & Debbie from Florida. Sallie & Debbie were pals in high school; they keep in touch & have many good memories together. It was interesting & fun listening to their reminiscing stories during their younger yrs. Chuck had some fascinating stories of when he was a submarine officer in the Navy.
Dinner by Sallie: Gazpacho soup, chicken stir fry & frozen lemon pie for dessert.
We were tired; today’s workout was most satisfying.
