Yes folks, the party is over. The party that I look forward to every weekend. It is not a drinking party but a party where we sit around a campfire and talk, laugh and eat. You can't imagine the amount of satisfaction and fun a group of people can have at these gatherings.
As of last Monday the campground started shutting off water for the winter. All but one restroom will be closed, not that I needed one since I have a bathroom in my camper. The golf cart has been stored and covered to protect it from Mother Nature.
Now I have to look for things to do on the weekends. I can only walk through Menards, Home Depot, Target, Wal-Mart and other stores so many times before next April when the campground opens again.
At least last weekend was beautiful and we enjoyed our last camp fire until next year.
On Sunday goodbyes were said, hugs and kisses were given and tears were seen in some eyes as we departed the campground until next year.
Have a good winter friends.

THE NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!!
Did you ever have a dream where you were trying to do something or get away from someone or something?
My grandsons Spencer and Aiddin did just that. This morning they both said that today was pajama day at school. My daughter said it was tomorrow and not today. Both boys insisted that it was today and that they were going to wear pj's and that was it even though the school calendar said it was tomorrow. Both boys said the calendar was wrong.
All decked out in the fancy pj's both boys stood outside and waited for the bus to arrive. When it did they both jumped aboard and at that moment they knew that mom was right. Pj day was tomorrow, Friday, and that they were the only one's on the bus with pj's. They became the laughing stock of the bus along with the embarrassment that came along with it. The bus driver was sympathetic and waited while the boys ran back inside and got proper attire.
Let this be a lesson to you know-it-all kids that mom knows best.

SURPRISES IN THE MAIL
We all like a surprise no matter if it comes on the phone, the front door or in the mail. It's nice to get one, maybe.
Mine came in the mail this morning. It was my car insurance bill. The surprise was that my premium had gone up $115.00 for six months for a total of $230.00 a year. How could that be? I have not had an accident or filed any claims. Wait, I turned 70 this year. Could that be it? If so isn't that age discrimination. But wait, insurance companies can do that without any explanation. I'm on just Social Security and we folks got screwed by not getting a raise this year or next and when we do Medicare will go up and there goes the raise.
Stop picking on the old folks by taking things away from us. I can list many things that can be done but I don't have enough space on the computer to list them all.
It's a sad state of affairs.

THEIR GONE!
Who is gone you say. Well if you have been watching Dancing With The Stars you would know.
It amazes me to see how the stars work and work at rehearsal and it looks like they will not have it for the show and bingo they come out and give a wonderful performance.
Although there were two who did not get it and I don't think they will ever get it and that is David Hasselhoff and Michael Bolton. They both looked like galloping horses that could not gallop. They would have to fall into the same category as Kate Gosslin who had no style at all and still does not have it on her new show. How do people get these jobs and get paid that kind of money?
I am looking forward to the next show to see how the Situation will do. I don't think that he is far behind Hasselhoff and Bolton. We will just have to wait and see.
