Terri and I spent most of the day in Tuscaloosa taking care of some errands. Thomas stayed at the RV with Carolyn. He is used to being in the country with 12 acres to roam around on with three big dogs. Sometimes it's hard for him to realize that the RV is not a plaything. He looks at it as though it is a toy house. By the time Terri and I returned from the errands, Thomas was bouncing off the walls, and Carolyn was almost dizzy from the shaking of the RV. That's not a good situation for her with the vertigo problems she has been having.
After returning home from the errands, we went to Sam's Club to pick up some things that we use from that store. While there, we decided to have a pizza for supper. They have a pretty good deal, with a large supreme pizza served piping hot, right out of the oven, for less than $9.00. Not a bad price, and the pizza was good. I liked the fact that the crust was not so thick that it overpowered the taste of the sauce and other condiments.
Has anyone bought one of the new high definition TVs? Just recently, I started paying attention to the difference in the quality of the picture between the HDTV and the regular TVs. Man, what a difference! When the two types are placed next to each other, the HDTV is so sharp, while the regular TV looks fuzzy. The only problem is we are not having problems with our TV, so it's hard for me to justify buying one when the old one works. In addition, the new ones are soooo expensive. Maybe they'll come down in price over time.
Last week, we had a couple look at the house who seemed interested in pursuing more information. Today, we talked to them, and they are going on vacation tomorrow. When they get back late next week, they want to go back to the house for a more thorough look at everything. I told them that was fine, but that in the meantime, we were going to go ahead and list the house with a Realtor. We will have a clause placed in the contract that we will reserve the right to sell the house to this couple at a pre-arranged price with no commission to the Realtor. I'm not sure how the Realtor will respond to that clause, but we need to move forward with this sale because it would be nice to have Terri and Thomas moved and settled before school starts. That's only about seven weeks away. And, it will be nice to not have to keep that place up. I'm getting to the point where I don't want anything else to do with it.
More later, be safe.

Jerald, I bought a 32" Sony HDTV. $1300. Worth every penny. It has an excellent picture. I used to worry about spending money. I cannot take it with me, and I hope to leave some behind but not all of it. Visit a Costco, they have some smaller screens that would do you well in your camper.
Thanks for the info, John. I know we can't take it with us. We have been looking at the ones at Sam's Club, but there are so many choices, it's hard to make a decision.
