Weather: low 50 degrees, high 56 degrees, cloudy skies, fog
This warmer weather we're having is just a teaser, as much colder temperatures are forecast for late tomorrow and the next several days. Snow is forecast for Friday, but nothing yet on how much. Winter is still hanging around.
With the warmer weather, we have been talking the last several days about getting the RV ready to hit the road. In all the talk about travel, I had forgotten what needs to be done to the truck, until this morning. Suddenly, I realized it was time to start getting the truck ready for traveling. I decided to take it to the Sam's Club in Huntsville to have the tires rotated and balanced. Why do that at Sam's? Well, since we bought the tires at Sam's, tire rotation and balance is free. Make sense? Plus, there were a few items we needed from Sam's.
I was over at Sam's by 0900 hours, just about an hour too early. Our membership hours begin at 1000 hours every day. It was too far to drive back home, so I just hung out for an hour until the right time. The store was very busy, and it was almost 1200 hours before I was finished and headed home. At least that part of the preps for the truck are complete. We still need to have it serviced and clean it up.
Getting away from Sam's at noon, I expected the traffic to be bad. Surprisingly, it wasn't, and I zipped right along, even through Madison. I had to make a couple of stops in Athens, then it was on to the house. Even with light traffic, it was still almost 1400 hours by the time I got home.
The rest of the day was spent resting from the hard start to the day, surfing the web, and reading.
Carolyn has always loved plants. When we went to the west coast in 2004, she had a great time admiring the beautiful flowers we saw. Lori gave her an Amaryllis for Christmas, and here's what it looks like now.
And, here's a picture of paper whites that Terri gave Carolyn for Christmas. Both the Amaryllis and paper whites were grown in the sun coming in the dining room.
Nice, huh?
More later, be safe.
