Friday, February 16, 2024 – Another Busy Day

Hi Sweetie!
Had another busy day today, headed out with Rick after chores and breakfast just after 9:00, first to take some pix of road signs they're in the process of replacing, then to Tidewater to do a bit of cleaning and restocking the bathrooms, then to HQ to pick up and fill the water trailer, which Rick did while I cleaned up the Apex restroom, which had been neglected for too long. While we were there, I had a nice chat with a couple of ladies who were there with their miniature horses and buggies (so cute!), then we headed out to fill up water buckets. Rick's eagle eyes spotted a small alligator by a roadside pond along the way. It didn't take that long today, there were only four spots with buckets, and they were all just 15 gallon tubs, no 100 gallon ones like last time. The forecast is for rain all day and cooler temps tomorrow, so I don't think they'll be needing too much on the trail, or even need refilling tomorrow, though I'll hang around just in case. Stopped again at Tidewater when we were done, picked up a package from Jo, who was already set up there, another set of cargo pants, then headed over to Willards for lunch. After lunch, Rick dropped me back off at home, where I tried on my new pants, which were the right material that I was looking for, but unfortunately, didn't fit very well, so they're going to have to go back. I ordered a larger size, plus another pair of a different type that I hope will work. I'm just tired of wearing jeans and wanted something a little different, and it's been a long time since I bought any new clothes, so I figure it's time. After resting a little, I drove back down to Tidewater for appearances, dinner and the ride meeting, then finally got home in the dark at 7:30, fed the horses, chatted with someone who came in looking for a campsite, then finally settled down for the evening to one Eureka and some Sleepytime tea, sans the cookie since I already had WAY too much to eat today. But day is done, heading to shower and bed! Good night, my darlin'! Love you!
