Seeing the Town

Our day began with a nice visit with John & Barbara, the owners of the Edgington RV Park. They gave us lots of ideas and more brochures for the surrounding area. We now know which grocery store to shop and where the best rv parts store is located and which vet to not visit. (We don't need a vet any longer.)

The weather was beautiful for sightseeing, but we needed to get a couple of chores out of the way. About half a mile away, we found the Alamo RV place and talked to them about installing the Koni shocks that Doug bought a couple of months ago. We also needed a new head for the Wineguard batwing antenna on top of the coach. While we were in the store looking for the antenna, we found a newer model for just a little bit more that will seek out the tv signal on it's own. We ordered that and on Monday we'll take the coach to the shop and have it installed as well as the shocks.

Feeling pretty smart, we took a drive through town just to get acquainted with the place. It's not a big city, but it has just about everything you could ask for. A dozen different fast food joints, Wally World, Big K, Home Depot, Lowes, a zoo, a city park and lots more were all just on the main street. I really like small towns.

Hopefully, the weather will be just as nice tomorrow and we'll go find something interesting. (not rocks!)
