Rain

Well At last we had some rain.I looked this morning after the rain stopped and we had 2.25 inches of rain in the last two days. I can't even remember when we had rain. Think it might have been when we had the storms a couple of weeks ago.This is the most we have had in quite a while. This will maybe help the soybeans around here. I think it is too late for the corn. We went to a garage sale this morning in the rain. Thelma bought a quilt stand for 5 $ It is in really good shape. It was and estate sale. Nothing else to interest us. My niece in Tipton In had lighting  hit her big oak tree. Stripped the bark right off it. Her and her Mom were in the car just arriving home when it happened. Scared them. She now has a mess to clean up.Well that is it from here. We have been using the pool the last week or so. Sure feels good when it is 90 or more. Later all Ron Thelma and Eli

Lost the power again.

Last evening we went to a funeral home out north of town. Had some hard rain and hail there. We then went to eat. When we were almost home noticed some stop lights not working. Thought oh oh Sure enough we had no power. Fired up the generator and plugged in the camper. Slept in it last night. Sometime during the night the power came on as I had left the outside light on When I woke up this morning the light was on. Boy this has been some week . They have almost everyone back on power now I think.Well that is it for now. Later all Ron Thelma and Eli

Update on power

We got our power back on Monday just before noon. We had to be at the hospital for Thelma to have an iron infusion. She is low on iron so has had three iron infusions. Also had a couple of other tests. She goes in later this month to see another specialist for her thyroid. That is part of the reason we are not going to Canada for our campvention. Since medicare doesn't cover us up there we are not taking any chances on anything going wrong. We have not missed one since we rejoined. Today it is 100 with a heat index of 106 last I looked. Think I got the pool about ready to use. Hope so It is about84 in the water. Well that is it for now Later all Have a happy 4th

Camping in the driveway

We had a storm here in FT Wayne this afternoon. Trees down in the area. No Power. So fired up the little Honda and moved to thefiver. Now we have lights and tv.Here is a picture of one of the trees just down the road  They say we had 91 mile anhour winds. Looks like it. We have a few small branches down. Not bad. Will work on that tomorrow or Sunday.Well that is it for tonight. Later all Ron Thelma and Eli

Back Home

Well we are back home. We are tired. We had a good rally. On Thurs night we had Larry Gatling and the Gatling brothers. This was a good show. On Fri night was Burt Backarach He was okay I guess. Not my type of music. On Sat night was Sheryl Crow. We stayed about 10 Minutes and walked out along with half the crowd. It was so loud and not the type of music for 60 - 80 year olds. Don't know who did the entertainment but they should be fired.. On Sunday they had and Elvis impersonator. He was really good. I would place him right behind the Gatling's.He had a nervous twitch in his leg. It kept shaking all the time. Ha. He didn't try to sing like Elvis. But did so many of his songs. The rally had a lot of motorhomes. Not a lot of towables. I will post some pictures and also put a link up for all the pictures in the next few days. It is going to be hot here the next few days. like 100+. Need to get the pool ready. Any other year it would be cool when we are home. Not this year. Well that is it for tonight Later all  Ron Thelma and Eli

Shepaardsvile. Ky

We got here about 2:30 this afternoon. Made good time. It is stinking hot here. Took me a long time to get all set up. Got the trailer set up and hooked to electric and then turned on the a/c. Took awhile till it cooled down. We sat out side and talked with our friends. There are a lot of campers here that are leaving tomorrow to stay on the rally grounds. hope their electric is good.They use big generators for the electric. With this heat they better be big. Well that is it for tonight Not sure what we are doing tomorrow. Will let you know tomorrow Later Ron Thelma  and Eli

Leaving tomorrow

We are heading to Louisville in the morning We are going to the good SAM rally there. We will be staying at a campground just south of  there. That way we will have good electric and full hookups for the week. Not sure just what time we will leave in the morning. Want to get an early start as it is going to be another hot one. Well I need to go out and hook up the trailer so I have that  done in the morning More tomorrow from Shepardsville. Ky   Later  Ron Thelma and Eli
