We’ll be here until next year!

  We have made the decision to stay here at Potter’s Creek until Jan 2, 2012.  The main reason being.. our mail.  Our trip this year has our mail somehow NOT falling in the correct timeframe for us to be staying in one place to get it! We have a good friend back in Sandwich pick up our mail,( which is on hold at the post office), every 3 weeks or so.  Then she sends it to us General Delivery to the PO where we are at.. in prepaid envelopes.  What with the snail speed of mail over the holiday, we were thinking we may as well PLAN to stay here to receive it.  Got that?…very complicated this mail thing.  Mostly, MacGyver handles it and I just nod yes…works for me.

  Well, our lake view has returned.  As we suspected, our tenters next door were just here for the weekend, and left Sunday.  We woke up Monday (the “to da dump” day for MacGyver), and this was our weather out our back window.

 

OK, so dumping the tanks was going to take place between the raindrops..

 

I know darn well the Dennis doesn’t realize just how many pictures I get of  him when he isn’t looking…Yesterday, I snuck this one out our window…For those poor souls who have been the “dumpers” in the rain , I feel your pain…but not enough to get involved.

Monday morning was better…still cloudy, but the rain had quit..and we were able to get a walk in.

 

 

 

Actually Monday evening was darn nice out…We  had our cocktail hour by a campfire…

…complete with Christmas Carols on I-Tunes, and the surround sound playing out the OPEN door of the Hiker…And….

…….A BEAUTIFUL SUNSET!!!!!FINALLY!

This morning we awoke to sunshine…Tra Da!..It was windy, and the temp was about 47 degrees at 8AM, but it warmed up nicely to 56 degrees before we took our walk…

Just look at that blue sky, would ya??…Oh, and just who are these guys?? The Three Stooges??

 

NO, THIS ISN’T “THE END”….and I’m very sure Judy told me last year exactly what kind of ducks these are…but, in the true form of Dementia Donna, I have forgotten…Ohhhhhh Juuuuuudy….????

I tried to get a better photo of this dude, but he apparently was offended by the “stooges” comment and gave me the “butt end” of the joke…They are pretty weird, strange looking ducks…until they fly..Then their wings have beautiful white feathers on them as they open up..I am trying to get a picture of them in flight, but now that I’ve insulted them, I probably won’t be allowed that luxury.  Maybe I could waddle up and apologize..Hey, I could do that..I have my waddle down to a Fine Art!!

 

Today I have been having a real time getting this “Live Writer” to liven up!!…It is just about as slow and I can tolerate without throwing the whole thing through our window…GRRRR….Sometimes, I have to wait for “Dead Writer” to catch up to my typing…and my brain isn’t that fast, so Mr. Writer man is really slow today!

Since we will be here over Christmas, and now New Year’s , I need to get some stuff to make a couple “horse dervers” for Mac and I to “munch in” the New Year…Pretty soon, the Christmas tree will come down and the camper will seem quite gloomy until I adjust…I love glitz and twinkle lights…guess you’d never know it by my “ensembles”,eh?? I need to look for some stripe socks and happy pants with some BLING!!
