In Clarinda -- weather excellent

Thought For The Day – I’m great at multitasking; I can waste time, be unproductive, and procrastinate all at once.

Clarinda, Ia - Temp - 88 degrees with humidity at 65%  Click on any photo to enlarge.

Got home from our 10 days in the Travel Trailer Sunday about 3 pm.  Found some sorta-red tomatoes on my plants!







Jessica asleep in grandma's crib.
 After we left the Kenwood RV gathering in State Center on Friday, we drove to Marengo, IA and set up our trailer in driveway of our son's place.

Granddaughter Ashley and 7+week old Granddaughter Jessica were there and we spent
time with them (and Grandma Patty) until went to eat Chinese supper at Williamsburg Friday night.

 In her car seat on way back home.














Saturday morning, while I caught up on the Internet stuff, Cam mowed the lawn.







Then we drove to What Cheer, IA to there 3-times a year Flea Market.





Lots of stuff set up.  We walked from about 11 am until close to 3 pm and did not see all the booths.










 All above photos taken as we walked around the Flea Market.


For a buck I bought this old 5-record LP Album of Christmas Through the Years published in 1984.



It's 90 degrees out, with humidity still at 60%, so I am taking the time, in the basement, to put the album from the records onto the computer and then will put them on a CD so can play in the Pickup.
 Using the old desktop computer which is hooked to the record player.  -- having TV running on the side with a movie and typing on the laptop that is in front.  Looks like I am really doing things, heh?





This is cropped from one of the photos I took of signs, and other things, at the flea market.  Posted it on Facebook a bit ago.  Something to think about.











Just realized hadn't posted any photos of the family at the Flea Market.  Here is Patty, Ashley and Cameron with Jessica in the stroller
 Cropped this from a photo taken at a bit of
a distance of the three ladies doing their "looking around" at all the stuff.
 Saturday night, when Heath got off work and could join us, we played Pegs and Jokers.




Got the bugs off the front of the pickup and the front of the trailer yesterday and cleaned the vent fan over the restroom in the trailer.  Lots accumulated in the 17 months we have had it.
 

Mowed the yard with the push mower yesterday.  Needed the exercise, but was very noticeable on the knee by last night.  Was able to bag all of it so put some mulch around some needed spots along the hedge in the back yard.

More later, Lynn
