Yard Sale Day

Park Place RV Park

On Saturday, Nov. 8th I slept solidly until 6:30. I looked over at Bill's side of the bed and only Gibbs was curled up there. Last night after we were settled in for the evening, we watched some tv. I was upstairs and at 9:30 crawled into bed.

Good morning!
This is how mine started.

Bill was up to the bathroom and was experiencing an upset stomach. He was in bed at 10 and soon up again at 10:30. More than an upset, he was sick to his stomach and sweating when I checked on him. 

Our first thought was food poisoning but we all ate the same thing and unless T & D had an issue, we could rule that out. He seemed better after that and I dropped back off. He did say it was a restless night but no more incidences. Strange, he felt good this morning.

You can see my supervisor/security detail/
shade enforcer and snoozer
is on duty.
He greeted shoppers and perusers.

He headed out to the flying field, happy to be back to see his friends and do some flying. I set out the household items and clothing on the table and on a tarp on the ground. I didn't expect much, or anything, to sell really but put out some of my creations too.

Bill was home by 10:30, still fine, and connected his plane batteries for charging, dumped tanks and sat outside with Gibbs and I until 11:30. I wanted to take a walk around to see who else was selling but was late for 3 I wanted to visit. Oh well, didn't need to buy anyway.

I did find a small round glass cake pan at Bj's, she has a nice set up on her site, and returned home for lunch. I packed my own stuff up and pocketed the whopping $4 I earned this morning. It's $4 we didn't have yesterday. 😉

The drive to Parker has always
been a favourite because of the views.

After lunch, Bill and Gibbs snoozed and we drove to Parker to shop at Walmart. The grocery list was getting long. It was a couple of hours before we returned home but we had enough to fill the 'larder'. Does that just mean pantry? Anyway, the fridge and freezer are stocked again.

In Parker, we get our groceries at
Walmart. Best prices and we walked out
with a lot of bags for our cash.

For supper, we agreed on Salisbury steak meat pies. I offered Bill rice as a commentor suggested or extra vegetables and he opted just for a slice of bread. He is enjoying one kind of the keto bread we've bought and that's great. I prefer a different one.

Black Beauty needed a  bath

No dishes other than what would fit in the dishwasher so that was turned on and we relaxed for the evening. This has been a great day. 

Just ready to turn onto
Plymouth Rd.

The sale was kind of a dud and that's fine. I'm going to donate the rest of the items to Carol's Closet across town. 

Gibbs and I walked just at
sunset again. 
A cool down to the overnight 58F/13C
has begun.

Our pink mountains to the east
catch my eye too.
Our neighbours, David and Natalie (sibs)
LOVE Gibbs so he runs to them on our 
way back from the walk. 💖💖

It is cooling off a couple of degrees each day but with no breeze, we still prefer running the a/c. I know it is totally different back home, while we are removing layers, they are layering up. We're all happy! Fyi, Bill is fine and we have no clue what it was or why. 

Another tasty meat pie meal.
Good night!

Thank you for your visit.

    1. No, never thought of that. We'll keep an eye. I would think it would have been painful more than the sweating, diarreah, throwing up symptoms though. I've had them. 🤔

  7. Glad Bill is over the bug, whatever it was.
    We enjoyed the garage sale, and I spent a whopping $11...half of it was for books. Apparently, I feel I'll have time to read this winter. :)
