Hi all
Great time here in Maple Springs Campground
Weather has been hot and humid
Finally got a thunderstorm through last evening.
Good wind, heavy rain and nothing else.
Glad we got it as the humidity was beginning to get down to 60%.

Yesterday did a bit of grocery shopping, only about 20 miles away
Millie and Muriel spent some time with Ancestry.com
and the rest of the time was relaxing and socializing.
Late in the afternoon we had entertainment watching radar and where the active storms were.
A lot of excitement as there was some severe weather in the area but fortunately spared us.
Millie's sister and her husband came over and joined us for supper and fun conversation.
Good thing Ken and Muriel have a bigger RV than ours.
It was not so crowded and much more convenient for supper and visiting.

Monday afternoon we went to Lanesboro for ice cream
and just looking around the definitely tourist town.
Got our own little car show and these are for Cousin Ed


1957 Studebaker Golden Hawk
Wasn't for sale, I believe, as the owner said he would sell his wife first.
Less than 50k miles and as far as I could tell, all original, except the Rt 66 mirror hanger.
289 super charged engine and looked like a "3 on the tree".


Did some driving in the area and with Ken as a guide saw some neat country.
All pretty and green if you could see over the corn.
My first time ever at Bucksnort Park.




Small but very scenic.
Watched the Trout working to jump the dam, just none showed up in the photos.
And yes, it really is called Bucksnort Park.


Today we are going to Cresco
NO, it's a town in Iowa, not competition for Sam's Club or Costco.
Going to look at RV's, even though it is not likely we would replace our beloved BWB.
Now that we have got everything working right and all known modifications made.
Millie and Muriel are going to the Quilt shop there so I guess the back of the truck
needs to be cleaned out to make room for new purchases. LOL

Make your day great
Tom and Millie
