Saturday the 5th – DAY 4– Trip to Zephyrhills, FL. 2013

Wanda up at 6am, JW up at 7 for a 9am appt at Camping World, 4 miles west of us. We were 30 minutes early and they still didn’t get started on the camera until 10am. We added a few things to th’ list of ‘things to do’. JW had them change out the 30 amp plug and cord cuz lightnin’ struck and welded the silly ole thing to th’ MH. Plum surprised th’ whole thing didn’t burn to the ground. Thank you Lord for always watchin’ out for us. Had ‘em put some grease in the little holes in th’ wheels on th’ tow dolly, somethin’ to do with bearings. Then there was somethin’ about fixin’ the trailer hitch so the car wouldn’t fall of th’ tow dolly while we were runnin’ down th’ road. While they were doin’ all that we went shoppin’. Man did we ever have a ball. Filled a cart plum full of stuff. Th’ clerk said we could leave the cart there by the register and jus’ pay for it when we paid for all that other stuff.

  

We still had several hours so decided to go to Wild Animal Safari. Now let me tell ya, that was an experience. We left with llama, zebra and camel slobbers all over th’ windows an mirrors. JW thot a zebra had bitten a chunk off th’ frame of his mirror. But, It was just a big ole slobber, so all was well. We solved the mirror problem by pulling in th’ mirrors. We had a great time! We’ll go there again. When we got back to Camping World and they finally got all their work done, we went in to pay, and would ya believe that someone had put all our goodies back on the shelf. Now how were we supposed to remember all th’ stuff we had put in that cart. Well guess what? We went shoppin’ agin. Twice in one day. That’s more shoppin’ than we normally do in a month.

Bein’s it was so late we decided to spend another night in Strafford MO. Once again, Thank you Lord for lookin’ out for us. This time we stayed at Strafford RV Park, just across th’ road from Camping World. We pulled into our spot, got all set up, and guess what? No electricity. That was at 4:40pm and Camping World closed at 5:00. We hurried back to Camping World, which was a good thing, because with all that shoppin’ we did, we forgot to get travel lights for th’ car. We have some somewhere in storage, but that doesn’t help much when we are anywhere from 30 to 150 miles from any of our storage units. We reported our lack of electricity so th’ guy who wired the new plug came to th' RV Park. He found that one of th’ wires had come off th’ plug, but he had that fixed in pretty short order. In fact, he finished it up in time for us to go to Country Pride Café for supper. What a day! Now what do you ‘spect tomorrows gonna bring?
