In Mission - Bentsen Grove

We arrived here in Monday (19th) around 4:30pm. It is good to get here and get settled in. We are still working on the settling in thing. Have to take RV to the storage area today. We parked RV across the street and unloaded it after cleaning our trailer. I can't believe we had so much stuff to unload. with my crafts and Roger's tools he brought, it took awhile. Roger got my 3 wheel bike out of shed and filled the tires with air. I am ready for a bike ride now. We were going to take one last night, Roger got the front tire on his bike put on and went to fill it with air, and blew the inner tube. Now he has to get a new tube. We took a walk instead.

There really isn't much to write about as not much happening in park right now and our friends aren't here either. I want to make it to the pool today and I want to check out the exercise room and show Roger how to use some of the equipment. We did take our pop cans to the recycle area and crushed them, then to the hall and read the bulletin boards. Seems they are having garage sales here this Sat. and a Halloween party on the 31st. We also signed up for flu shots for next Tuesday. Wow...........isn't that all exciting??? Not really, but like I said before, not much to write about.

The weather has been nice, in the 80's. Slept with the air on last night, haven't done that for awhile. We were sleeping with heater running all the way down here. The fruit trees in our yard are full of grapefruit and oranges, but they are still green so it will be awhile before we get some of that great fruit.

We did venture out yesterday and did some driving round and looking at other parks for mobile homes for sale. I can see this is going to take awhile to find the right price and everything we want. I like the park we are in, but we lease the spot and own our trailer. The activities in this park are great and I have made many friends. Roger wants to own the land as well as the mobile home and many parks are set up that way. It is the activities in those parks that sometimes are not up to par with what I want. Roger doesn't do activities, so it really doesn't mean anything to him. Also, we have a wish list of what we want this time around, so finding everything is the challenge.
