Diary for Harry and Judy's RV Trip


Days 21 & 22-July 26 & 27, 2014-Crystal Lake, IL

2014-07-26 to 2014-07-27

Day 21-July 26, 2014-Crystal Lake, IL

Sunny and warmer today, about 85.

It’s very nice “camping” on the driveway.  Usually there are a few rabbits hopping around the grassy back yard, lots of birds singing and it’s nice and shady.  The weather’s been great too, cooler for sleeping.

Had a nice morning relaxing and catching up with Jim.  Harry and Jim did the man thing looking over the truck and Jim’s motorcycle.  Played a game of Phase 10, Jim being the winner.

Went out to dinner at Vicky’s, a very nice place right on the Fox River.  Beautiful night to sit outside on their patio and watch the boats coming and going.  Went to a little local bar afterwards that had a few slot machines, but it wasn’t anybody’s lucky night. 

Day 22-July 27, 2014-Crystal Lake, IL

Again sunny and about 85, very breezy which feels great.

We could get used to casual mornings like this, just sitting and yakking.  After breakfast we plotted a course for the near future (after much debate!).  Harry and Jim tried to get some more grit out of the truck from the Amish roads.  Did some grocery shopping and laundry then went to the Chinese Buffet with Jim, Jackie and Kristen. Then back to the house for some more yakking and good-byes.  It was great to see them all and we’ll miss them ‘til the next time.
