I had two Christmas meals this year: the traditional Christmas dinner at the RV resort and lunch on Dec 26 with my son in Ocala. The Christmas meal was quite good – and free! We only had to bring a pot luck dish; the turkey and ham was provided by the resort. Jett didn’t come as she was not feeling well enough to be out in public, but I took a very nice plate home to her and she declared the turkey to be “the best ever.” Quite a compliment from someone her age.
The following day I took the truck to Ocala to have lunch with my son Tony. That was about 7 hours of driving for a 2-hour lunch break. I wouldn’t have done it were it not for my need to gain some confidence in the truck’s health as we may need to use the truck to get to our cruise in February. And it needed the exercise: it had traveled less than 200 miles in 6 months. I am happy to report that the truck performed flawlessly. And it was nice to share a meal with my son. In case you are wondering, he has his hand over his beer to keep the bees out. We had several bees buzzing about and one took a dive right into his beer about 15 seconds after it arrived at the table. I fished it out and it staggered away.
