This is a picture of jeni and I last winter,hiking in Anza Borrego State Park.Were not doing much hiking these days as Jeni's knee problems has made even a short stroll very painful.She's is hoping that the surgery she had will get her back to doing the things she loves.Monday she started physical therapy and she goes 3 times a week for a month.She also has exercises to do at home.It's a difficult road back for her,but if anybody can do it Jeni can!
Remember me saying"the little maintenance things you have to take care of on the RV."Well,I went to roll up our awning so the neighbor could wash his rig and SNAP! it wouldn't roll up.I had to get my ladder and hand roll it up as far as it would go.It wouldn't roll all the way up and it wouldn't roll out.Stuck!The manager at the park had a Mobile RV guy that could fix it so I gave him a call.He came out today and took care of it.It's something I couldn't tackle myself as the springs on the awning arms are under high pressure. per the mfg's instructions, only a professional should attempt to fix it.So I just watched,and paid the bill!It's the little things!
While I stayed with the RV repair guy,Jeni went over to our sons house to do laundry today.The RV park laundry costs about 2 bucks to wash and dry a load.Jeni usually has at least 4 loads so thats 8 bucks.Dan doesn't know it but he is helping "ole"Mom and Dad out.
Yesterday morning when we went for Jeni's physical therapy, as we left the park,we noticed the automatic entrance gate was smashed in and off the track and the big chain that opens and closes it lay in a tangled heap beside the gate.What happened!Did the local gang try to break in,did a crazed psycho try to run through the gate and kill us all.Maybe a drunk driver thought the gate was an off ramp and he planned on mowing down all our RV's.Our security has been breached!Maybe it was an" inside"Job.Which neighbors looked suspicious?Maybe the guy with the walker from Florida,Yea,he looked dangerous.Or maybe the lady walking the park early in the morning,Yea thats probably not an Ipod she's listening to.Yea,shes probably the one.As we drove,my mind was sifting through the possibilities,and now with no gate, will the "Invaders "be back to finish us off tonight?When we came back from the Dr.I stopped in to the office to see what really happened to the gate.I guess a tow truck was loading a car by the gate and the cable pulling the car up on the tow truck snapped and the car rolled off the truck and crashed through the gate.Also they were repairing the gate as the lady at the desk was telling me the story.OK!maybe there was no plot to take over the RV park.But,The guy with the walker still looks suspicious!
