Feb 21st - Pancake Breakfast

This morning I walked over to the Care Center for their pancake breakfast. For $4 you received a helping of scrambled eggs, a sausage patty, coffee, juice, and all the pancakes you could eat. You could have either plain pancakes or blueberry pancakes. The benefits were: 1. a good breakfast, 2. provide some financial support for the Care Center & 3. a nice walk, since it is a little over 0.6 miles from our site to the Care Center.

The Escapees campground in Livingston is the main one. One of the great things they do here is provide care for RV'ers who are having health issues. An area of the campground is set aside to provide services to those in need. People there can either go to the Care Center for meals, its a very short walk from the designated spots to the Care Center facility, or they can have volunteers deliver meals to their RV's. In addition volunteers provide RV cleaning and other services. There is also a handicap accessible minibus for those who need transportation.

Below are some photos of flowers in the park while I was out walking around yesterday and today.

It was quite windy yesterday afternoon and the magnolia tree lost a lot of blossoms.

You get to see some interesting "rigs" when you walk around. I didn't get close enough to check out the name tag on this truck but it sure doesn't look like something that would have enough guts to pull this 5th wheel.

This afternoon I was sitting outside reading. I was sitting in a lawn chair and had my feet up on the bench of a picnic table. Up came a friend.

She walked around a little and once she found out I wasn't going to pet her she flopped down under the table, went to sleep and started snoring. 10-15 minutes later a car returned to one of the RV's down the street and she jumped up to go check it out. All dogs in the campground are supposed to be on leashes, at all times. Kathy said she saw this one wandering around yesterday. She thinks the dog may belong to someone in a neighboring home. The dog has a collar but no tags on it.

We tried a Chinese buffet for lunch today, not so good. I'm sure we can do better tomorrow.

High temp was a cloudy 70 today. Last nights low was 62. The next several days aren't going to be as nice, but they will be FAR nicer than what folks in the frozen northland are experiencing.

May God bless you and yours.
