Another Week in Red Bay, AL

This week went by pretty fast here.  We stayed pretty busy.  On Monday, we went into Bay 39 since the part ordered for the air tank arrived.   They installed it.  While we waited, we visited at the Guest Lounge.  We played a couple of games of cards.....

That evening, Lorraine and Chuck invited us for beef stew.   It tasted really good and since it was pretty cold out, we all really enjoyed the stew and sides....

Lorraine, Mark, Manuel and George enjoy their time together.

Another day at the Bay....The sign above says "When Curtains are pulled KEEP OUT!  I guess Manuel and Mark don't know how to read!!!!  I caught them coming out of there.

Since I am lost on days, this evening, Wednesday, I think, we had movie night at the Didelot's.   Lorraine bought two new movies and we got together to watch "2012".

On Thursday, we drove about 45 miles to Simmons Tires in Sheffield, AL. for a wheel alignment.  There was a lot of ice since it was in the 20's.   The roads were okay.   We had to be at Simmons at 7:45 so we left the Allegro Campground at about 6:30......we overslept but we made it there 15 minutes early.  It is cold out.

It took them about 8 hours to get all they had to do at Simmons. We did not take our tow so we had a long wait.

Mike Simmons offered us his truck to go tour the sights but we only took it to go out to lunch.   He is a very nice man.  We took his Chevy Silverado for about an hour and a half.

Today, Friday was a rest day for us.   We did not have to go in for work.   Some of the other folks did go in for work.   I went shopping with JoAnn and Sue.  Manuel stayed to install these vents on the Coach.

I got these pictures after I returned.   He said Mark helped him put one but then he was call to go into a bay so he had to leave.  He continued working.
