June 13, 2010


View of the day-Times have changed…just look what they are selling at Walmart these days…two for one, no less.

Well, we got more rain during the night and after getting to sleep in a bit, woke up to even more. We didn’t get as much as they did around Pratt, KS…3 to 4 inches and more predicted for today.

We hit Miss Dotties for lunch, then went to Alva so Marilyn could get her Walmart fix in. We took the laptop along and Marilyn found someplace where Al could ‘easily’ get on the internet to entertain himself while Marilyn was in Walmart. She only got to shop for a short while before Al came in to help with the grocery shopping…how he could think 3 ½ hours was long enough was a wonder to Marilyn…there were 10 aisles left to go. Al never did find the two things he was looking for at Walmart…Marilyn should have insisted they go to the bright lights of Enid…he surely would have found what he was looking for there.

Al drove around Alva, checking out the campgrounds and motels to see who was staying in town…there were a LOT of harvesters scattered throughout the town and most of them were lined up at the Laundromat to get their laundry done.

We went back to Cherokee and the sun was shining, of course, the clouds were rolling in and there was another tornado watch for tonight. Back at the camper, we put out the awning for the first time this year just in time for the rain to start falling again. Lots of lightning and thunder with this one, but it looked like it was west and north of us…but we can never tell unless we drive out of town because of the trees around us.

Tomorrow the plan is to do some fixing on the things we have been putting off. We will have to go to Fairview to get a few parts…and toys…

And, it’s not that far from Enid…
