A Relaxing Day

Don and I are enjoying just relaxing today. 

We drove around this morning looking for a place to eat breakfast and came up with only McDonald's where they were out of coffee, salsa for my breakfast burrito, strawberry jam for Don's sausage biscuit and napkins.  It seems most of the restaurants are located inside the casinos around here.  I'm sure a person could make a could living opening a Breakfast Cafe here, because we sure saw a lot of disgruntled folks in McDonald's this morning.

Don did go to the local RV place to make an appointment for Monday morning.  It seems several lug bolts were loose on a wheel on the Quantum.  There's also an annoying squeak occasionally from the wheel area, so we want to get that checked out before getting on the road again.

Frieda, my cousin, left school at noon today and came over.  She had errands to run, so I rode around town with her.  When we got back to the Quantum, Don said I needed to take the camera and go take some pictures of some of the biggest roses he ever seen, that are in the park:

I love you, Cuz.100_4845

 

"14 And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. 15 And since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for."

1 John 5:14-15 (NLT)

We are so blessed.
