Update on Free to Roam the Rainbow...
Monday while I was running errands, Annie was at her mom and dads. Her mom had taken Tom to dialysis. Annie heard someone calling her from outside. She went out and found her mom sitting in the driveway. Her knee had gone out. Not the first time and won't be the last. Annie took 2 patio chairs to the drive and helped her mom into one and elevate her leg with the other.
After a bit her mom walked using 2 canes into the house. Later she was able to get to the car and Annie drove her to pick Tom up at dialysis. He was very weak and when they got back to the house, we and neighbor could not (4 of us) get him out of the car.
So off to the emergency room we went. It was determined that they had taken too much fluid from him in the dialysis process. So they doctored him up and sent him home. It was still difficult to get him in the house but we managed.
So with that - we're staying a few more days to be sure he's ok. He seems to be fine and is back to dialysis today. We hope he comes out of their on his own two feet this afternoon and Friday. If so, that will be our signal that we can depart Central Illinois.
We wish they would move to assisted living but they won't. Like most homes here - they have a basement and there are steps at both the front and rear entery. It's not ideal and worries us. Plus mom has the washer / dryer in the basement and the big freezer. Dad can't go down there any more and she shouldn't.
So Ommms Generators on high. And let's just hope we are on the road Monday.
Thanks mutants in advance for your Omms!

Okay, it did happen. This is from Party Central on Whidbey Island, WA., Earlene got pictures. All I can say is that when I sat down with Dennis on that "nice area," he got a funny look on his face that made me want to go sit somewhere else. Fortunately Denise told him to calm down and not attack me.
Oh, and he has some pictures of me playing with Barb's monkey (Sena).
And finally, there are the two beauties, Barb and Denise.
Stay tuned! More monkeying around to come.

You got it ... ommmm, ommmmm!
How frightening for all of you! It's so hard to give up your home and your independence, even if you acknowledge it would be for the best. (Not telling you anything you don't already know.) Sadly, it may take something even more catastrophic to make it happen.
Ommmm.

Dwayne thanks for posting the question.
Jan and Ray here is the information that might help. If you have any questions please let me know. Lori was going to open up the spaces around us as its getting to be that time when things start booking up for the Winter in TX.
Update on GC in Fredericksburg TX:
The RV park that can handle our size of group is:
FREDERICKSBURG KOA
5681 East US Highway 290
Fredericksburg, TX 78624
(830) 997-4796
fdbgkoa@beecreek.net
All member’s must call to make their reservations and at the time of reservation they will give you a 10% discount on the rate too.
So to make reservations you need to call (830) 997-4796. Let them know you are part of the RVMutant Rally.

Oh, and BTW, you should have given the Ford technician the key to the door.
Yeah! I figured he'd come back with something like that BB he has for a brain running around in his box car head. Oh well, he missed out.
Save me one, save me one, a hot one, mama. Do you ship?

I can bring to Richardson... you gonna be there? I suppose I can ship if you aren't gonna be there.

Marty, bring a hot one for us too, please?
Thundering & cloudy now. Just finished a brisk walk around the lake. Going back tomorrow for paddle boats & a very ugly round of mini golf. 😁
Had a lazy day today. Went to the farmers market. Came home with SO MANY yummy veggies, plus red chili tortillas, 2 kinds of salsa & bison jalapeño cheddar sausage. Then we went to old town to gawk & snack. Steve, Jax Fish House didn't open till 4. Really wanted to go there.......
Train runs from 11am Friday thru Sunday evening. We check out Friday at 11 am. ☹️

^^^ Colleen... maybe next year we'll hit Jax and the train. We'll probably go by there on the way to or from the great Mooning. Just a thought.
