We got up this morning and it was still nice and cool around 63.  Around 9:30am I took Susan to meet her cousin and they went to quilt shops. I went to Cuba and walked around awhile. It is a little town on historic Route 66. In the old part of town they have many murals on the buildings and some neat old houses. When I left there I went back to the trailer and read for a little bit. I then met Susan and Delaine in Saint James for a late lunch. After lunch we went to Mermac Springs  Park  which is outside town. It had two museums which were great. One was about the history of the Springs. In the late 1800"s there was a village , iron mine and forge works located there. The other museum was about the agriculture and had a wonderful exhibit of old implements. We really enjoyed both places .After leaving there we headed to a yogurt shop to get a cool snack.  Once again I headed back to the trailer and relaxed while the others continued shopping. They showed up at the trailer later. Delaine headed home and we just chilled out.We have had a good time visiting the last two days. Got some things loaded up as we head out in the morning., Should be spending the night somewhere in TEXAS tomorrow.
