Auction Day

The day started with overcast skies and it looked like it might rain, but that soon cleared and folks started arriving for the auction. A church group set up and ran the food and drinks for the whole thing.

We had several surprises; Music cd’s and movies do not sell well at an auction. Figure we got about 2 cents on a dollar from all of the cd’s. Then again we sold an old hammock, chainsaw, and pump for more then we paid new, not a bad deal.

We know over 99 people showed up because one item sold to the person holding number 99. It was a mixture of people, some we knew and many that we did not. Some good friends showed up not only to by but to say goodbye. We never knew how many people in the area liked us until we sold the place, how sad is that.

Now we will hook up and travel to new places seeing different things. I hope we can stop here again to see friends when passing close. Time will tell what happens..

Day 8 RV Test Trip

Well today we woke up at 0630 thanks to someone on a motorbike riding around the park. We are now awake so might just as well take the dogs out for a walk. Took a nice long walk around the water and got a few photos of some birds I can not ID. Will have to look for a bird book next time we are in a Wal-Mart. :) lol.

In order to get connected to the internet I have to sit out side, because the signal is not strong enough to work when inside the RV. Glad it is not real cold, but it would be nice if the sun could come out. Sitting in a fog bank to work on this. That is ok, it is a challenge and sort of fun (this time). I will however talk to the office about this..

Interesting lunch, we decided to try crawfish only to find out it is not available except on Wednesday and Fridays, we missed it by a day. Some other time we will be in the right place at the right time. Today was a day of walks for the dogs, pictures of birds, ( as seen) and checking out the internet for were we want to go next. Still undecided at this time...

Turned out to be a very nice day, not what I would call warm but at least it is not cold so that is really good..
