At State Center for the Kenwood RV Park Midwest Summer Rally

76º here in State Center, Iowa at 4:35 pm Sunday as I start this.  Complete overcast all day, was as we got up at Lake Ahquabi State Park south of Indianola, IA this morning.

We are parked at the left - Jerry & Lillian Witt's unit to the right.
We pulled out of that park sometime around 9 am and was at Lola's campground here in State Center sometime after 11 am.  Both of us got set up in the spots we will be most of this week.  Bill Oberholzer, who is staying at the park this summer, came down and supervised us setting the units up then had lunch with us.

I took a nap and Phyllis visited with Lola, Bill, and Don & Linda Foote who showed up this afternoon while Jerry & Lillian went uptown to a laundromat to catch up on clothes washing.


GROANER’S CORNER:(( Jim and Mary were both patients in a Mental Hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Jim suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom & stayed there. Mary promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out.  When the medical director became aware of Mary's heroic act he immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as he now considered her to be mentally stable.  When he went to tell Mary the news he said: "Mary, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged because since you were able to jump in and save the life of another patient, I think you've regained your senses. The bad news is, Jim, the patient you saved, hung himself with his bathrobe belt in the bathroom. I am so sorry, but he's dead."  Mary replied: "He didn't hang himself, I hung him up there to dry."

A tourist is traveling with a guide through one of the thickest jungles in South America, when he comes across an ancient Mayan temple. The tourist is entranced by the temple, and asks the guide for details. To this, the guide states that archaeologists are carrying out excavations, and still finding great treasures. The tourist then queries how old the temple is.  "This temple is 1503 years old", replies the guide.
Impressed at this accurate dating, he inquires as to how he gave this precise figure.  "Easy", replies the guide, "the archaeologists said the temple was 1500 years old, and that was three years ago"
