We have been out birding. Ed heard bluejays putting up a fuss by our camp and knew immediately an owl or hawks were nearby. All campers were amazed when he pointed out two great horned owls just into the Audubon acreage. He is very good at things like that!
Tonight we are heading to the local Methodist Church for a "Catfish Fry". Hush puppies, corn bread, the works. Not my fav, but Ed loves catfish. Going with our friends from London, Ontario, Canada. .... We met a couple traveling in a Navion...22foot van Class B....they describe 95,000 miles on the road with only an aisle to live in. Some are tougher than others, out here on the road. Yes, they have driven all the way to Alaska and back...twice. Gave them my Remax card...planning on selling their home in Chicago!

I'm going to make some notes here to remember when I get home regarding our lifestyle in the Lark. Bear with me, if I don't write them down....
Brought too much clothes...too many shoes. blah blah blah. (Ed talking) Could add some plastic storage containers for our wardrobe. Thinking about the induction burner with a few pans for next year. Easy to cook with indoors. Purchased a new ceramic heater to take chill off floor in evenings....remember to bring warm slippers for indoors at night. Insulation is not what the Lark is known for. Need new sink faucets in kitchen and bath...high ones to get pans and hands under. Soon I will be picking off the "border wallpaper" and painting walls. I've seen uglier interiors, but motor homes are still in the 1980's for design sense. None of the indicators of tanks work at all. Fernald, can you get us a good indicator on LPGas tank? May want to add some dimmer switches to some lighting. More romantic. Can reduce my "survival" instinct and not haul so much packaged food items. There is little to no chance of starvation! Love my oven..need a few more baking pans. Our neighbors carry along a scale to watch their weight.... that is a real downer. No thanks.
Right now is a time to think about leaks....raining very hard ... sure beats a tent! Good day for an ibook.
**Would like a second set of custom sheets for Lark... spreads laundry day out.
