Down Day in Bloomington

 8-13-2021 - Friday

Well, we didn't do too bad with our "down day," although Joe got up at 6:30 (said he was awake since 4:30) and totally shocked me.  I didn't wake up until about 7:00.  We had a slow morning, but after breakfast we headed into Cathy and Joe's office, and took Joe his birthday cookies (which, of course, we shared with him).   I wanted to get a hair cut, so after we bothered them for a while, Cathy gave us an address for a shopping center with a Great Clips and a White Castle.  I had a 55-minute wait for a hair cut, so we shopped for Joe a new phone holder, since he ripped the back off his yesterday, getting out of the Jeep.  He actually found one at "5 Below" for $5.55, and so far he likes it.  I had my hair cut, then we stopped at White Castle, but it was carry out or drive through only, so we got ours to go and drove back to the RV park.  By then, they were no longer hot, but they were ok.  

We got a nap in today, then Cathy invited us in for dinner, so we headed back into town.  Joe M. cooked some wings on the grill, and we had a nice meal with them, finished with sitting on their deck.  Joe brought out the remaining cookies, so we topped our meal off with them. Then it was back to the RV, in the dark.  We saw a deer right before we turned into our campground, it was getting ready to jump into the road so I was glad we both spotted it.  

The campground is full now, and in the dark, it was hard to find our roads even with the GPS directing us.  With only one wrong turn, we found our way back home and called it a night.  Tomorrow we are supposed to meet Joe and Cathy early and go to the Farmer's Market, which is only 2 blocks from their house, so we need to get a move on.  Then we will see what the day brings.  Hoping for cooler weather.
