Check it out...

Cool and breeze again today, but much better than the past couple days.  Joan wanted to get something out of the 5th wheel, and I like to check in on it regularly when it is in storage.

Yep, everything looks fine; the batteries are fully charged... it is ready to go when we are.  Alas, winter settling in early around most of the country makes it less appealing to hitch up and go somewhere.  We are usually one of the warmest places in the Continental US during the winter.  Usually.

We closed up the Love Shack and went into Harlingen for lunch and some shopping.  I have been craving BBQ ribs - we have a place on the island that advertises "world famous ribs"... I'm more inclined to call them... OK.  Lunch at Longhorn Steak House - the ribs were very good; Joan ordered a crusted chicken entree that was also tasty.  We generally do some sharing.

Diesel was still selling for $3.18 at the new Sam's Club nearby.  Big Red's fuel tank wasn't that low, but I couldn't resist the price.  A couple shopping stops, including a cat toy that wouldn't shut up... motion activated, and we weren't standing still.

It was mostly just an outing.  The high temp today made it just into the 60s - still a bit chilly for peddling or paddling.  Another day or two and our weather should be back to normal.  I'm ready.
