Yesterday I noted that our neighbor could be a bit strange. Last night our suspicions were validated. We spent a good part of the morning carefully avoiding contact with this fellow camper who I wrote might be a bit weird in yesterday’s entry. The neighbor is almost silent during the daylight hours, skulking around his trailer and campsite appearing to be looking for something to do. He really comes into his own at night, electing to make lots of racket during the dark hours instead. Much door slamming, cooler rearrangement, outside furniture reorganization, heated discussions with family and periodic releases of his asthmatic, wheezing dog for coughing fits fill his nights. By 1:00 AM, I was considering drastic action to silence the cacophony but cooler heads prevailed and I was left with merely being amused at the amount of noise one camper could make during the park’s posted “quiet hours.”
Today we were obliged to go the laundromat here at Paradise RV, one of the onerous tasks we face while traveling. We took all our dirty clothes down to the facility and spent a couple hours renewing our wardrobe. It was the usual boring stuff but I am fortunate to have a better half who is very good at processing our duds quickly considering the bulk of the task. My handicap with proper clothes folding techniques is a source of disgusted amusement for my spouse.
We returned for dinner to Lisa’s, where we had lunch yesterday. Tonight the big draw was prime rib. We ordered two of the special and soon Lisa returned with two excellent pieces of beef which were served alongside almost football-sized baked potatoes (with butter, bacon, cheese, onions AND sour cream), a bowl of salad and garlic bread, all for $16.50 a head. It was excellent food. Lisa’s Diner in Onanlaska is definitely worth the trip.
