I'm leaving on a JET plane

I'm leaving on a JET plane....

Tuesday February 6, 2024

This morning walk fit and line dance. While I'm gone Jim does the dishes, makes the bed,  searches his phone for things we're trying to get done. Usually takes a shower till I get back. 

We have lunch when I return. Then the search continued for a flight to Iowa. We searched and searched the best thing we found was leaving February 20, at 7:18 in the morning on United, from Orlando. Arriving in Chicago at 10:30 and then boarding another smaller plane, to arrive in Sioux City Iowa at 12:30. 
Till you get all the add-on costs which are crazy, we even had to pay to sit together, ect.  Almost $1,000 omg. 
But it's done, we texted the guy we're buying the truck from "Ron" and told him our flight info. He keeps telling us he still didn't receive our deposit. Can't believe it.
 I guess we should have FedExed it overnight for $30. Instead of just over $5 for a signature.
Looks like we're going to have a good weather week when Thomas, our oldest son, and his family come on the 9th. 
Tony Mainolfi our local weather guy. He has his hand right on the Friday, the day that they arrive.
Later Jim grilled and smoked some chicken for dinner and later use. I made Moose chili.. 
Pam called to invite me over to practice a new line dance with her. I wanted to so bad, but had a lot of irons in the fire at the moment.
Also did two loads of wash and had a NOBS Zoom call around dinner time.

After we put everything away as it was getting dark. Switch crew walked by. So great when someone stops and says hello.
 Their names are Sian and Richard Blackwell. We had a lovely chat glad I grabbed a picture 
with the great TTO sunset in the background.
We had a great dinner together and finally could chill, cuz the flight was booked.

This morning did walk fit at 9:00. No line dancing on Wednesday. 
Came home at the time of this posting, not much memory of today. Lol
Probably just a lot of boring stuff in preparation for the HDT, Thomas's arrival etc.
 Took a good picture of the truck that's for sale our F450, 2011. 
Jim saw this picture and of course thought it was funny, and it just says it all for today, I guess.

This morning I did my 3 Mile Walkfit, then 2 hours of line dancing. 
During WalkFit today switch crew, Dina Silver, suggested we get together and chat more tonight after dinner.
What a great Idea.
 So I decided to text people and invite all Switch Crew, here  at TTO, to our RV tonight to hang out. 
I was calling it,  an unscheduled spontaneously,  Switch It Up Campout.

Got home from  my work out,  Jim said " still no HDT deposit arriving in Iowa yet. " So frustrating. 
Then after lunch Jim went out and smoked a pork loin on the Ninja. For barbecue pork sandwiches when Thomas arrives tomorrow. 
He took a great picture of the RV. 
Then later as it was getting dark we had more Switch Crew walk by. 
Diane and Alain Lacroix. They are French Canadian and we're so fun to chat with. 
While we chatted I invited them for the get together tonight too,  AKA campout. 
Great Sunset tonight 
Later after dinner and cleaning up, we got ready for our campout. Lol
We put out all the chairs we had out. Everyone showed up that we invited.  
Julie and Jeanna even brought snacks, thanks.
We used Robert's great phone to take a fantastic picture, it has night vision.
Jim and I really need new phone, hate the new learning curve, though.

First time we met Robert, but I've been hanging out with Dina, during WalkFit, they both still work full time.
Here's everyone in the switch crew from left to right.
Kev, Val, Dog Maggie, Katie, Victor, we met them in line for Brazen Brits at RV show. Diana, Alain Lacroix, we just met. Sian, Richard Blackwell, Jason, Julie Roberts, Just became Floridians last Dina, Robert Silver. They both still work full-time and going to their first Huddle in South Carolina. 
Also we invited Lynn and Jeanna. They were nice to get our picture, he didn't want to be in it.
We met them now a couple years ago, when our truck broke down. They live really close to my brother in upstate Pennsylvania. We become good friends, and one day we're going to get them to a Huddle or Campout ASAP.

We all went around and introduced ourselves. And how we kind of met some of us previously. We all definitely remember seeing everyone, around.  Even though we never officially met. Well, except for Dina and Robert.

 What a great night we had with everyone, I think our campout broke up about 11:00 p.m.
