Feb 18th - Another Nice Day

Yesterday the weather improved from Monday and it improved a lot more today. Today was one of the nicest days since we have been here. The sky was amazingly clear out over the Gulf today.

We haven't been doing a lot, just enjoying ourselves. Yesterday we dropped of some prescriptions for refills at the Walgreens in Clute, TX. We found a new place to eat lunch, Bella Roma's. I ordered the spaghetti with mushrooms and Kathy ordered a pizza. Note the rolls in the bowl between us. They brought them to us when they were fresh out of the oven. They were AWESOME!!! The spaghetti was good and Kathy said the pizza was very good (We did bring a lot of it home.)

I ate all my spaghetti. After we got home I went out and walked 2 miles along the beach.

Today's "excitement" was going over to a local dentist to have him check out a tooth that has been annoying me. He told me that he thought that it needed to be extracted but that it could wait until I got back to Missouri, since it isn't causing me big problems. We stayed at the campground the rest of the day. I took a 4 mile beach walk today. (I have to get more exercise since I'm eating so much)

We leave here Friday morning and start our trek into the frozen northland. Instead of going through Dallas/Ft.Worth we are going northeast out of Houston and we will go through Arkansas on our way home. Today I made reservations for us to stay a week at an Escapees campground in Livingston, TX. Livingston is about 75 miles northeast of Houston. (The place we stayed in Alabama was also an Escapees campground) We still plan to return to Centertown on March 3rd, no matter how cold it is.

May God bless you and yours.
