Spring Break - March, 2019 Part 1

Picking back up with the blog, I had my eye exam on the 14th here in Perry. I did my routine of going to the YMCA, getting the mail, stopping at the grocery store for some forgotten item.  We also had supper with Linda and Hazel and celebrated Hazel's Birthday!  She is now the same age as I am! On Friday the 15th, I fixed up and went to Enid to meet my sister for lunch and then we went to Dillard's and Ulta to shop. We didn't shop long, instead we went to her house and visited. Marsha our other sister happened to call while we were together, so we all got to visit a bit.
Saturday, we did some household chores, vacuuming, mopping and laundry to prepare for our trip. We aired up the tires on the RV and checked the fluids also. In addition, we loaded our pickup with tools and the air compressor. We tried to load some things in the RV so we wouldn't have so much to do tomorrow.
Sunday the 17th (St. Patrick's Day) was D-day (departure)! We waited a bit for the temperature to increase a little and then about 10:00 we started loading the remainder of our stuff.  We drove to a parking lot nearby and I put the tow bar on the RV and hooked up the pickup. All the lights were in order and so we took off. We met Kristi & Logan at Yukon and watched a soccer game then had a late  lunch at Long John Silvers. We drove on to Clinton and stayer at the Waterzoo RV Park. The kids  had to pack and arrived about the same time we did. We had to manipulate the RV quite a bit to fit the slide between the trees. We used all our sewer hose because the utilities were place close to the front of the RV - weird! Then the water would not come on in the RV - finally google that problem and found out it could be a check valve in the water inlet. So Steve had a spare part and that did the trick! He is very resourceful. My Handy Man! We went to Weatherford for some supplies at Walmart and ate at Wendy's.
Tight site- even more so with the slides out.
On Monday, the 18th we got up a little late and had breakfast. Then we went to Matt's RV to get a part for the toilet foot pedal.  That thing broke also! On our way back we stopped at the hotel and got the kids checked in and obtained their bands for the indoor waterpark. While the  kids did the waterpark, Steve and I took a nap. They got back about 6:30 and we ate at Montana Mike's in Clinton -not too good. The food wasn't too great except for the rolls, which we practically had to beg for. The server was slow, yada, yada, yada. Steve & I returned to the RV and the kids went to the hotel.
Tuesday, the 19th we had breakfast, walked the dogs and so on. Kristi dropped the kids a the waterpark and came over to the RV and we all sat outside and enjoyed the sunshine! Later Kristi joined the kids at the waterpark. Steve had to fix the hardware on the bedroom door and then it was nap time. After Kristi and the kids showed up we went to supper at Carelo's (Mexican). It was very good.  Logan stayed with us and Kristi & Austyn returned home for appointments they had scheduled.
