Twofer day details

At the drop of a hat we've had yet another party.  When will I get some rest?  Oh but this time we've had a  'twofer' celebration.  Two for the price of one!

Friends Jerry and Della  celebrating 56 years of marriage along with friend Bill who had another one of those semi-forgettable birthdays so ... the camp soldiers are summoned and let the festivities begin.

Ya' ...  I'm sure you think this RV life is one continuous party ... well you may be on to something.  But really it's keeps us off the shuffle board courts.

Oh, by the way ...  before I forget ...  or maybe I'm just remembering something I've already said ...
The new round-about we have on Blue Star highway (just in front of RV park) has turned into a real good training ground for us more senior drivers.  Since many of us like to drive with our left turn signal on continuously, this counter-clockwise intersection is providing some needed practice.  nfortunately a few of us have run out of gas before we could figure out how to exit the damn thing.

Back to the partying.

Jerry and Della, compared to many of us, define grace and style.  No nose pickers here.  These folks probably know what to do with that extra fork they give you at the sit-down eating establishments.  And their socks match and their clothes are pressed real nice.  So to help this really great couple celebrate another year of marriage was really our pleasure.  No kiddin' ... truly an outstanding couple whom we all admire and wish  the best of everything to.

Still working at feeding the SS system, Bill has not slowed down a step.  Retiring from one job and  mmediately starting another, his stamina is noteworthy and, as the SS system is in such trouble, we all appreciate his ongoing contributions to our lifestyle.  Rumor has it that he may hang up his volt meter next year and dive headlong into RVing almost full time.  We wish him all the best on this special day.

So another party, another celebration, another good time with friends and still livin' the dream.
