Finishing a Project, Potato Bar Potluck

Park Place RV Park

On Saturday, Jan. 24th Gibbs let us sleep in. Bill nor I could believe our eyes when we looked at the clock after the little guy moved in for his snuggle. It was 6:50! We were all in bed last night around 10 and slept very well.

Good morning.
Last night, by 10 pm,
we were all in this position
but in bed.

Maybe Bill can credit his new pillow but for me, it was just a great sleep filled with dreams. When they got up, I rolled over and slept some more until 7:25. Gibbs was playful and had Bill's blanket and sheet pulled way down before I gave in and got up. 😂

After breakfast, they did the park tour. All is well on the home front.....er, and the park front. I misunderstood the writing on the wall (aka the dates in the laptop) and that meant we had NO departures today and NO arrivals. Works for us!

This is another lovely puzzle.
Bottom right is the cheat sheet,
Top right is this morning
Left is how I left it at 4.

It was quiet so I spent the morning on a new puzzle. These are all the same brand, which I can't think of now, and they are all 1,000 pc. with great pictures and a printed sheet to work off. Bill did some raking on the uncovered storage areas and did a bit of puttering back at the Suite as well.

Then I decorated the plain
old white bird to
brighten this picture up.
I ran out of blue paper so had
to do some remodelling.

After lunch, I finished the one project. It was a bit of a secret, which turned into a surprise for Sue. There is one other metal wall decoration in the clubhouse and I decided to dress up the plain white bird, turning it into an Eastern Bluebird.

I doubt it is anything to be
proud of, but my little bro
in Cold Lake, Alberta says
they made the list yesterday.
Brrr.

She didn't know that's what I was doing, as I hid it each time she came over to visit.🤭😉 When I had it complete, I hung it back on the wall by the puzzle table. She brought over potatoes for baking around 2:30 and when she didn't notice, I eventually pointed it out. She was quite pleased, I think.

13 big baking potatoes
Some of us could only eat half.
Great job, Sue!

At 4 (4:15 for some late-comers) 11 of us had a baked potato with all the fixin's (sour cream, bacon bits, cheese, onion and chili), some vegetables and apple pie for our supper. To blow my own horn, the pie was delicious and luckily enough for each one to have a small piece.

My plate.
Yup, that is only half a potato.

It was all very good, and the bonus is I didn't have to cook and there are 2 pieces of pie left for us! We brought one of the remaining 5 baked potatoes home for another night. We cleaned up and parted ways just after 5. After today, we have our 6 days off so that will be nice.

The sun is ready to set just before
I closed the blind.

This was a good day. The puzzle is coming along almost too quickly but I'm enjoying it with a bit of help from Leesa while she did her laundry. We only had a high temperature 67F/ 17C today but it was just fine with a fair bit of sunshine to start. 

I like her thinking!
Good night!

Thank you for stopping in to see what we're up to!
