Took a hotel to be near the dealer and get it in by 7:30am to be finished by 10:30. At 11am they tell us they have not started, we wait 2 hours at our hotel to be "picked up" by their courtesy?? car. After waiting two hours, we call a cab, but still sit at the dealership for another hour or so! Grrr.Finally they finish at 2pm! And we are on our way south to the Texas Gulf Coast, our destination this winter. It's now too late to head for Corpus Christi so we shop for food at the great HEB grocery stores here, hole up one more night at our RV resort on the south side and meet up with Pat & Anna, some nice New Yorkers.
Crack the last bottle of Trader Joe's dessert wine to celebrate his birthday and enjoy dinner on the picnic table. Good news is most of these RV resorts do have a picnic table, ideal for our BBQ and eating out on these lovely warm evenings. We still have some of TJ's limoncello to go with the lemon cake I bake when I can plug in the toaster oven outside.
(Photo left, no not our hotel, it's the Pearl Brewery, sadly under renovation, so not the source of limitless free beer, as it was on our first visit there some 35 years ago!)
