Camping Trip, Day Three

Friday, Nov. 5:

We were up around 7:30 on this windy-cold, but sunny morning. Around 10 a.m., after breakfast, Hubbie and I toured a couple of wineries. Mother opted to stay at camp.

At one winery, we bought a few bottles of red table wine. As we were browsing the wines, we noticed a "Ten Bucks" sparkling wine listed at $11.99, which we found amusing.

Proving that it's a small world, we discovered that we and a man and his wife at the winery share friendship with a couple who live an hour and a half from our town.

Before we went back to the campground, we stopped to get a camper propane tank filled, and get diesel for the truck.

This afternoon, we attended a 2 p.m. comedy show. Again proving that it's a small world, we met a friend from our town in the lobby. She, her daughter, and son-in-law were also attending the show.

During the performance, the son-in-law "volunteered" to be made a fool of onstage, where he was outfitted in a Swedish girls costume to do the Chicken Dance.

Back at camp, after supper, Hubbie decided he wanted to shop at a home improvement store, so off we went, while Mother relaxed at home.

When we got back, we played Skipbo until bedtime...I won two games, and Hubbie won one.

Before retiring, Hubbie unhooked the water hose to camper, as he did last night, because predictions were for freezing weather, and we didn't want to wake up to a problem. So we used the camper pump, which is very loud when running water or flushing the toilet in the middle of the night.
