Today we went shopping. We hit Costco, a conjoined liquor store adjacent to Costco and Trader Joe’s and my feet are just tingling with misery after many hours on the concrete. I put forth some of my best efforts to act like I didn’t hate the shopping and Peggy made a point of acting like I was tolerable. We had substantially less money when we left than when we entered.
We are currently set up in the Thousand Trails facility adjacent to Lake Conroe. There are about 500 spaces here but not much shoreline. From our hilltop perch, we think we can see some distant cabins that may have a skinny view of the lake. The staff on site has elected to use what appears to be inch-and-a-half minus recycled road base as the paving gravel so walking can be catastrophic for those with weak ankles. I have had some near-death experiences just today trying to stroll around our trailer.
We have been naughty since the park management forbids attaching anything to their trees and we have installed a small bird feeder to a tree just outside our window. We spotted some yellow-throated vireos grazing on our seeds today. They have plumage of an almost shocking yellow.
