Wednesday 1-25 Free Time

Relaxing
What do you do when you have free time? Some people read, write, watch television, drive around town, shop, go to a movie, house stuff, work on hobbies or projects.

Today we hung up our dancing shoes and hats and just took it easy. First thing we did was go to the J5 get together. They had a special speaker, a lady from an insurance company. She has been coming to J5 for about ten years and some of the residents have insurance with her company. She did a short talk and told people if they wanted any information just swing by the office or get in touch with her before she left the park.
 
The next thing we did was take the Minnie for a ride. Larry wanted to put air in the tires, fill it up with gas and test out the new fuel pressure regulator. We first of all stopped by a Stripes for the air. It cost $1.50 for five minutes, Larry made sure that the hose would go all the way around the Minnie, then I put the money in the machine. He put air in one tire and then moved to the next one, instead of adding air to the tire it was actually going down. He moved on to another tire and it did the same thing, I guess the compressor couldn't keep up with the amount of air needed for the motorhome tires. Larry decided to go to Discount Tires, we have bought our tires from them for decades and he knew their air machine would work. Every time we go to Discount Tires we have a great experience. The customer service is outstanding and the workers are friendly and very helpful. 
Lunch
  After getting the tires taken care of we returned to J5 RV Park and plugged back into power. Next Larry dumped the holding tanks, he added some Dawn and softener and filled them about half full with clean water. He figures as we drive home this will slosh around and help clean the tanks a bit. Next up was lunch, we had seen a Fuddruckers a few miles down the road and we like their burgers and onion rings.

After lunch we went to Tip O Texas RV Park to watch the cloggers. Karen Tripp had invited us over to watch the cloggers perform. The theme for the performance was Gypsies. Cloggers from different RV Parks showed up and performed. Karen and a few other ladies cued the cloggers through each song. They first of all walked them through the steps and then they danced to a song, it was fun watching. We have watched cloggers before but today's performance was different than we had seen in the past. There were also a few men clogging and the dancers wore gypsy outfit. The ladies wore belly dancer belts and the men wore scarfs around their heads. Both the women and men wore earrings. The outfits were very colorful. We stayed about an hour.

We spent the rest of the day with Flo. We had a very relaxing day.
