Windy in the Sunshine

Lucky Star Casino, El Reno, OK

 On Monday, Mar. 31st I woke up a few times in the wee hours, not sure why. I was in bed last night by 9:15 so I was probably slept out. I still didn't get out of bed until 6:45 though and came down to join Bill. He'd already had his cereal and was washed and ready for the day. He wanted to get into El Reno to the Ford dealers early, in the hopes they could do a read on why our engine light came on.

Good morning!

When we left Walmart yesterday, there it was, ever ominous. Bill is not a mechanic and while he can detect and figure out many things, some things are better left to a professional. He left shortly after 7:00. I looked out the back window to the east and saw a beautiful red sun rising up over the horizon. Well, a transport was today's horizon but the sun was still glorious. 😊 After I ate my cereal, I saw the 2 strays were back around the area. They look friendly enough but to be safe, I waited until they wandered back across the field.

Sometimes, certain things just
call out to be photographed.
I made my tea, walked away and saw
this.
Cool, huh?

Spring is here
Dandelions and a Robin

Gibbs and I then went out for a walk. It is a cold morning, only 45F/7C made worse by the wind gusts from NNE at 17 to 20 mph. Not terrible but still cold. Thank heavens for the sun, which was battling with newly formed clouds overhead. I had my tea and played my Wordle games. I needed to stop watching the strays as it breaks my heart that they don't seem to have anyone to love them. Gibbs kept watch and would growl when they got too close to his home, at one point barking until they ran off. 

Gibbs relaxed this afternoon too
I trimmed his facial hair today so those
eyes pop and his beard is shorter.

Bill called a couple of times updating me on the truck progress, which turned out to be good news. We were expecting the worse but trying to be positive regardless. The diagnostic check showed that the air filter was partially clogged with dust and the perimeters were off, thus causing Black Beauty to seem to drag where she usually has real power. If you've ridden in her with Bill, you would know how she performs. Anyway, a new filter, an oil change (it was due) and Bill was home by noon. 💖

Supper was tasty

Nothing is inexpensive but this was less than we thought so are feeling pretty good about it all. We will be leaving in the morning to our next destination. The afternoon was spent watching movies and dozing and for supper, Rosy air fried sausages. I fried the last of the potatoes for Bill and cooked a large portion of cauliflower for me and finished the meal off with some freshly cut strawberries and cream. Yum!

Happy Birthday to my baby sister!
I love this picture of her at
Thanksgiving.

The Voice was on so we caught up with the next episode until 8 when the NCIS programs began. Being only an hour from our home, it is easier to catch our programs after our evening meal. This was a quiet day and we received good news about BB's trouble. It wasn't warm because of the winds but we did reach 62F/17C with plenty of sun. How was your day?

And we are also at the end of March.
Time is flying by.
Good night!

Thank you for coming along with us.
