Saturday 10-5-24 Just Having Fun
We had another day of catching up. We started the day out by going to town to do errands. First stop was at Jack n Jill Donuts for breakfast. Then we went to the post office to restart our mail. We were about 10 minutes early so we ate our donuts while waiting. After starting the mail we went to the UPS Store and picked up the mail. While there Larry renewed our mailbox. Last stop was Walmart to do a little grocery shopping and picking up some oil and oil filter to change the oil in the Minnie.
We spent the rest of the day relaxing.
I played some pinball. The games I played were Dirty Harry, Elvira Party Monsters, Games of Thrones, Great Houdini, Judge Dredd, Metallica and Willy Wonka. I had a super time.
Larry also played pinball.

We
spent the evening catching up on YouTube videos. Then I
watched Sherlock Holmes Game of Shadows. I ended up doing 18,000 steps,
which put me in 2nd place in my group.
