Day 38 - Sunday, January 5 - Busy Day

 Yesterday Kathy was asked to play the piano for this mornings Sunday worship service at the campground. One of the Winter Texans here is a retired Pastor. He leads a 9AM church service in the clubhouse. When she got home we left for the Cowboy Church. It was a busy service. The Pastor and his wife introduced their oldest son, his wife and their 4 month old child. Chris & Tracy were pretty excited. This holiday visit was the first time they actually got to hold their first grandchild. Next, awards were handed out for the kids who participated in the Buckle Events. The event I wrote about two weeks ago was the final event of the year. 

It was a full house at the church. The first thing Chris did was ask people to move closer together to provide seats for the people standing in back. Several guys carried in some more chairs from another building to provide additional seating.

Kathy wanted a hamburger for lunch so we stopped at a McDonalds on the way home from church. She liked her double hamburger. The meat in my double quarter pounder tasted like it had "aged" for 5 years in a freezer. Next stop was Walgreens to pick up a prescription they had been working on for well over a week, it still was not ready. I don't know who had taken over at Walgreens but in the last year they have managed to run it in the ground.

It was windy today, 30 mph gusts, and even though it was mostly sunny with a high in the high 80's we didn't feel like spending time outside. I watched a guy with a travel trailer pull in and start setting up. He was having trouble getting the friction fit cap off the sewer connection. I took him over a claw hammer to pry the cap off. He is a solo RV'er from Colorado. He came down from the San Antonio area today, about a 260 mile drive. He said fighting the wind was so bad that he had to stop a couple of times to take a break.

Then we watched the Kansas City Chiefs get stomped on. I think the final score was 31-0. I'd guess the Chiefs were using a lot of 2nd string players to give them so experience, since a win or a loss didn't help or hurt them, other than their pride.

After dark we walked over to the hot tub and pool. Its the first time we have been there this trip. I actually joined Kathy in the hot tub for awhile. I just don't get why people like them. We had one the 10 years we lived on Black Rock Lane and I was not in it one time. I moved over to the heated pool. It was better. It was a nice night. The wind had died down and we were the only ones at the pool. The outside temperature had dropped to 74 degrees by the time we were at the pool.

God is good. I pray that He blesses you and yours. He has blessed me.
