Woke up feeling great, was in bed almost 12 hours. David came over to move the MH and took it to get inspected.
Once we came over for breakfast, it was to the point where Jim called it brunch. I made ham with potatoes onions, peppers, eggs and cheese for breakfast. We plan on only having one other meal later.
I told David that we could make some steaks we had. Don't want to take our Florida Steaks, back to Florida. After breakfast / brunch we had phone calls to make.
We decided to drive into Dushore so we could use our cell phones to make the calls. Had to call to make my doctor appointment, and had to call about our pills, we need to refill here now, and called the library to pay our internet, since something's wrong with Jim's email.
Then we went into the grocery store bought a few things for breakfast tomorrow. Had a little ice cream treat from the store. Then we drove home. David went to get his motorbike inspected too. He ended up buying steaks and potatoes and everything for dinner. He made a huge meal for everyone and big salads. Drew was in charge of the steaks out on the smoker.
He has a wood burner, behind him, that heats water and heat. He always has hot coals to cook on.
I did a lot of laundry today here for the first time. It's awesome using their dishwasher too, then the three of us sat down and had on Naked and Afraid, Last Man Standing. Wasn't over till after 9:00. I wanted to shower and wash my hair. Sat down in the basement worked on the blog while it dried. Jim already went home and went to bed.

Sarah's birthday 16 today, got her permit.
This morning Jim and I went over to the house after our coffee. It was after 9:30 nobody was moving around yet, Jim and I had breakfast together. I made him a piece of the leftover steak and eggs.
Later the boys had the same. Then Jim decided to go work on our 30 amp breaker plug. That way we can put one air conditioner on over there.
Some of Drew's carvings.
Then he also finished the install of the 50 amp plug in the front of the fifth wheel. Now we have 2, 50 amp outlets, it will make boondocking easier, because the generator is in the bed of the truck .
I was cleaning some windows after breakfast. I ate a later lunch with David when he finally ate his steak. We sat around and talked, all of us together, which is always enjoyable. Love hearing David's hunting stories. Drew had an appointment so he left around 3:00.
Jim had a celebratory beer after his big job , then he played the drums since we are home alone.
His view up there.
Then he took a shower.
A friend of Drew's Jesse came over, I gave her a tour of the fifth wheel. She had never seen it before.
Later for dinner I'm going to make Olive Gardens Zuppa Toscana soup for dinner with the salad and bread sticks.
I sat with Drew for a while, I did some no BS with my ear plugs in. Jim went home, and after I emptied the dishwasher, I was about to leave and it started pouring. I waited for a while before heading over. Jim sent me a picture of when he went home he saw this deer in the road.
I guess it just couldn't stop staring at our golf cart.

This morning we were awake early, like 6:00 a.m. ish. Once he finally got up had our coffee, got to the house about 8:30. I decided to make a veggie mix and make omelets with it for everyone for breakfast, brunch. It had onions, peppers, zucchini, yellow squash, mushrooms, spinach, topped with salsa and cheese.
Drew went out to weed whack for a while, he had his last.
After breakfast David left to go get his bow worked on. Jim took a shower once Drew came in and ate and showered he had an appointment at 2:30.
When he got home he had motorcycle hair. While he was gone his scared e cat sat with Jim.
David and Jim started to grill / smoke some chicken.
Jim helping alot.
We had all the same leftovers from last night, just added the chicken and I made a apple carmel dump cake.
Before David went away he saw this snake in the basement.
Then the 3 of us went out to look for deer, saw so many we lost count.
Beautiful rock wall, Drew said was probably over 100 years old.
If you zoom in you can see black dot right in the middle of the tree line.
We drove around and he started running to the road.
Running
Beautiful pond
Bald Eagle out in the middle.

Today I made sausage biscuits and gravy for their brunch, no picture today. Drew was weed whacking, it's a never-ending job here. Later after I had a lite bite to eat, Jim and I went to Tunkhannock again to get our pills. Went to CVS first finally got that done. And I went to Aldi's, $150. to feed my three guys, feels like I got a lot.
Then we stopped to get beer.
Jim left the truck running, and there's a cute little store across the road. I turned the truck off and locked it, texted him I'd be right back. Beautiful little cottage house that I think is a candy store, I never got to go in.
But it looked like they sold plants in the back too, the beautiful garden and sitting area.
Jim is ready to go and I can tell he was annoyed and ready to go. We left and went to get diesel. He should have went while I was in Aldi's. Would have saved time. Till we got back to the house brought everything in. A few things went into the RV. I started dinner and put pork chops in the oven. I made a mixed veggies of onions, peppers, zucchini, yellow squash and a potato, Jim put on the Ninja. I put yellow rice in the instant pot. And the three of us had dinner, by this time it was after 7:00. After dinner got the dishwasher going and we watched a little TV.

This morning after our new normal morning routine. Drew and I went out to a few different places, we left about 11:30 am.
First we went to Steve's Saw Repair.
He needed a new chain, couldn't remember the number of it. They had a whole didn't chain saw language, lol that was very new to me. They talked about a raker. It is a depth gage for the teeth.
After that we drove past our Grandparents house on our Mother's side.
Then off to Mark's Trading Post. Middle pic, Drew wanted new jeans, but couldn't find any. He very kindly got me a pair of hiking socks.
Then an Amish store called Wengerd's,
I still like the ones in Lebanon County more. Top pic above
One thing I was never, NEVER in and out of so many store's SO fast. Most of which was in Hughesville Pa.
Then TSC Tractor Supply Co.
Cat food a tool for the outdoor wood burner. And still couldn't find jeans.
Cool Yellowstone shirts though.
Then the quickest trip into a Sam's Club ever. Drew bought everything he realized we did alot of food shopping for here.
Then last stop cool antique, very eclectic huge shop, with anything and everything.
I could have spent hours in there, it was really close to home but it was a super quick trip. Most of which are things you can't purchase when you live full time in an RV.
When we got back to the house it was about 3:00 in the afternoon. Drew suggested we go out to eat while we were out, but I said we had so much food at home, which I prefer anyway. Drew and I had leftover chicken, rice and veggies. Later I made Jim a cheese steak for dinner with a lot of leftovers for later. Drew and I were good for the rest of the night. While we were gone Jim played the drums and watch some movies he likes. What a fun day it was with him.
