Home Sweet Home
We are home after an eight day camping trip in Texas. We stayed five nights at Cedar Hill State Park and three nights at Cleburne State Park. We hiked five hikes for a total of 19.5 miles and walked for 25 miles around the camping areas. We had an outstanding time.

I got out of bed at 7:30 am. We got ready to go. We put everything away and secured. Then Larry unplugged the Minnie from the power. Next he moved the Minnie forward to get off the blocks. We stacked the blocks and put them away. We were on the road at 8:00. Larry was going to dump the tanks but decided not to because it was so cold. The temperature was 35 degrees.
Larry is still pretty sore from his fall. It has not prevented him from doing things but some movements are painful.
On the way through Cleburne we stopped at Paul's Donuts for our breakfast. Larry bought a half dozen donuts and the lady through in a half dozen of donut holes for free. The donuts were very good.
Larry drove 120 miles on mainly two lane highways. When we got close to Waco we got on I35 and took it to Bruceville-Eddy where we got off the interstate. We got back on a two lane highway and it took us to Belton. We were home by 10:45. Larry plugged the Minnie into power because we may use it again in the near future. Then he turned on the water to the house and got the heater going. Then we emptied the Minnie. I took everything out of the freezer and refrigerator. I turned the refrigerator off so the freezer could thaw out. We took most of the clothes out and our electronics. We also unloaded the motorcycle and removed the carrier.
Once we finished with unloading the Minnie Larry installed my new weekly pinball challenge.
Yesterday, started the new weekly pinball challenge, which is Indiana Jones. So he downloaded the game and installed it on the big pinball cabinet. Once it was installed in both 2D and VR he played it to make sure it worked.
The other day when we were playing pinball at Bishop's Cidercade in Ft. Worth they had Pirates of The Caribbean. Larry really liked playing it. Years ago Larry installed it on our arcade cabinet but for some reason never thought about seeing if there was a VR version. Sure enough he was able to find it in VR so he installed it on the mini cabinet. It is a really fun game.
While Larry installed the two games I played my games. I did the Daily Challenges of Solitaire and Mahjong. The event was Event: Two Game Tango Mini of 6 games (3 Spider and 3 Pyramid). It took me 13 minutes and 15 seconds, which put me in 5th place in my group. I played Angry Birds Friends and Angry Birds 2.
I played four games of pinball on the big cabinet, which were Big Bang Bar, Big Buck Hunter Pro, Fish Tales and Indiana Jones. While playing Fish Tales I became high score #3. My first high score of the weekly challenge of Indiana Jones I got 168,706,560, which put me in 32nd place out of 55 participants so far.

I played four games of pinball on the mini cabinet, which were Batman Forever, No Good Goffers!, Pirates of the Caribbean and The Lord of the Rings. While playing Batman Forever, No Good Goffers! and The Lord of the Rings I became high score #3 in each one. When playing Pirates of the Caribbean I became high score #1 and Larry is Grand Champion.

In the evening we started to watch a new series on PBS called Bookish. So far It's a good series. It's about bookstore owner who works with the cops to solve murders. It takes place right after WWII. Then I watched the first movie of The Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. I ended up doing 6,000 steps.
