June 28,29, 2021 Visiting Susan"s Brother Richard

 Monday morning we headed into Frisco to visit with Susans brother and wife. Susan made a king sized quilt for Richards 80th birthday. We spent the day visiting and the they took us out to dinner that evening. Richard and Sheryl loved the quilt Susan made. Tuesday morning we went back over and then they took us out for lunch. We left there and came back to camp so they could see our trailer and campsite. We just visited for awhile. Later They took us out for supper. One of Richards daughters( Marla )met us and we had a great evening. We went back to Richards for awhile and then we had to say our goodbyes. Tomorrow morning we will be back on the road.  We really enjoyed our time here.

June 27 On The Road Again

 We left about 7:15 starting out on our summer trip. Our first stop is Lake Lewisville just north of Dallas. We will stay there a couple of days visiting Susan"s brother. She made him a King size quilt for his 80th birthday.  We had a pretty easy drive untill we got to Dallas. It was crazy and we made a couple of wrong turns. We finally lined out and made it to our campsite. It was hot but the humidity is way lower than home. It was a challenging day for me because I threw my back out about 3 days ago. It really only bothers me when I"m waking or standing. It doesn"t bother me when I"m sitting.  I can"t hardly walk in the morning but it gets better during the day. With muscle relaxers and my tens unit I survived the drive. Because of my back I"m not going to set all our stuff up here at this camp. We stopped at a Cotton Patch for lunch and had enough left over for supper so I didn"t have to cook.  Our freezer door came open somewhere and dumped everything on the floor.  Made a mess and a couple of packages of ground deer meat thawed out. I will cook that tomorrow. We were both tired and rested all evening. I took two muscle relaxers and went to bed at 8.  Hickory Creek Campground is a nice Corp park and we have a good waterfront site with shade.  Hoping my back will recover before we leave here.
