Running Out of Beach Time

After scrambling to find something to make for breakfast (the last of the cereal and bagels) we biked for 5-6 miles. The fridge and cupboards are just about bare. Since we're leaving here in a couple of days, we're trying to make do with what we have, not wanted to re-stock at the grocery store. It's getting tough!

Look what we found in the swamp right next to the RV park while on our bikes.

What started off as a very foggy morning, turned into a fabulous day on the beach. After an hour we walked to the Pink Pony bar/restaurant on the beach for a sandwich (again, no food in fridge) and then back to the beach. The kids in the RV park finally got to enjoy the beach.

After Mark had enough sun, we returned so he could start cleaning the outside of the 5th wheel. We're winding down now. No more public laundromats - I'm saving the rest for the weekend at home. We've made a reservation for Friday night at the KOA in Eureka, MO to unload and clean before returning it to storage. I can't even think about emptying out all that we have accumulated.

The last of the chicken I had in the freezer turned out to be bad (stinky). After throwing out the chicken, we walked to Jalapeno's restaurant, which ended up being closed. We sat down at another restaurant, looked at the menu, listened to way too many families talking way too loud, and got up and left. This required a walk back to the park to get the truck. All I wanted was a salad. Fortunately there's an O'Charley's about 10 miles away.

Tomorrow is heavy duty cleaning inside and out before beach time. Wednesday weather looks iffy, so we may head back on Wednesday. We're getting anxious to see everyone. The Weather Channel will let us know when to leave.
