Dec 16th -- DishTV Day

Another nice, sunny day here in Summerdale.

The DishTV tech was supposed to come this afternoon. I made the appointment for the afternoon so that I could go to the morning caning class. I was at the class for maybe a half hour, just finishing up repairing the strand that I broke at the end of yesterdays class, when Kathy called me to say the tech would be here in 20 minutes. Ed, the tech, was a nice guy and got our replacement receiver installed without any difficulty. He had gotten his appointments mixed up. He was supposed to go somewhere else in the morning and then come here in the afternoon, he came here in the morning. We may get a lot more channels but the picture quality isn't as good as what we were getting when using the regular RV antenna. I will have to see if there is some way to adjust the picture.

I did go back and do a little more work on my chair, but didn't make much progress.


Several new folks pulled into the park today. One couple has a home base in Vermont. The other couple (Frank & Ruth) have been on the road full-time for over 10 years. He grew up in Florida and she grew up in Washington. They met while in the military. Ruth said that full-time life in an RV suited them well because it gave them a chance to spend time with all their kids & grand-kids, who are spread across the nation. They have been visiting their kids who live in Utah & Texas and, after a week here, are heading to Florida to spend time with their son who lives there. We ate supper with them at the club house.

We had lasagna, salad, a desert for supper tonight. The lasagna was OK, but not as good as Kathy's.

Tomorrow morning we take the motor home in for an oil change and transmission fluid change. We may head to Pensacola for the day, while the work is being done.

May God bless you and yours.
