Another Day with Croxtons

 6-22-2021 - Tuesday

The only pictures I took today were around our campground, Johnny Appleseed Campground.  This is a nice campground, and we have a very convenient site, right across the street from the laundry/showers.

Behind the laundry/shower building is the St. Joseph River.  From our dining room table, I can see the weir under the bridge.  Ft. Wayne has 3 rivers:  St. Joseph, St. Mary, and the Maumee.  The city of Ft. Wayne is currently all torn up with construction because they are building some kind of pipeline under the city to handle flooding.  This is a long-term project.

Beside the river, and the shower house is a dog park, with several benches shaped like dog bones.  It seems to stay pretty busy.

Dixie and Jim met us here at the campground this morning, and we went to breakfast from here (the Lunch Box).  We got there at 11:00, and today's lunch/dinner special was chicken and (homemade)  noodles, so we decided we would come back for dinner.  Joe took over the driving then, so he got to drive their new Honda CRV that they got in November.  He kept trying to figure out how to get "navigation" up on the screen, but was not successful, so Dixie called Paul (who has one similar and helped them purchase this one), and we found out you have to have your smart phone on to get that screen.  That was a surprise.

We then went to Costco, and over to their house.  We bought strawberries at Costco and Dixie made an angelfood cake, so that was our Mexican train treat tonight.  After we drove back to the Lunch Box for dinner, we picked up the Jeep at the RV, and Dixie led us through town to show us the best way to leave here on Thursday.  Then we went back to their house for another scintillating  game of Mexican Train (Jim just wanted to go to bed).  But I won, so that was exciting.  Dixie won last night, so I was out for revenge.  She is the scorekeeper, so I suspect some hank- panky there.

The temperature was great, I think it finally made 70 degrees about 4:00.  Joe and I grabbed long sleeve shirts for the return trip home, again just about midnight.  Wednesday's high is forecast at 75 with chance of drizzle, but it warms up to 84 on Thursday, and thunderstorms starting Friday for the next 7 days, so time to leave!
