Scout Is Going To Get Us Banned....

....from getting treats.

I told you that there is a man who works here who drives a golf cart.  He stops for all the dogs and hands out treats.  Scout gets excited whenever she see a golf cart and very disappointed when they don't stop.  We thought there was only one cart that held the treats, but yesterday we discovered that a second golf cart carries treats.  The man stopped to talk to us and then he handed us a treat.  I took mine and I happily ate it.  Do you know what Scout did?  She sniffed it and refused it. The nice man offered her another flavor and she refused.  He offered her a third flavor and she refused.  You see he didn't have the same treats as the other man.  The folks and I were embarrassed by Scout and her attitude about the treats not meeting her standards.  Mama told her that she is going to get us banned from getting treats here.  :::sigh:::


We saw more dogs being walked this weekend. It was fun meeting all the residents.  Miss Woe even came out. She is the greyhound who lives here.  We were happy to see her.  She is still a little scared of us.  Mama says we come on way too strong for her.  She had a foster brother recently, but he found his forever home.  She is hoping to have another foster living with her soon. We hope so too because it will be fun to have another greyhound in the park.

This Is Not The Texas That I Know

I am freezing my little muscular tushie off here.  We even had snow here today!  Can you believe that?  I am beginning to think we took a wrong turn and that we are not even in Texas. 

This morning, we didn't have water.  Yep, our outdoor faucet froze.  Apparently, we were supposed to keep the water running inside. We have our hose wrapped which is what the signs around the park said we needed to do. Our hose is also heated, so we thought we would be fine.  We won't make that mistake again.

There is a guy that works here that drives a golf cart and whenever he sees us he stops and gives us a treat.   He didn't stop yesterday because it was too cold.  Scout couldn't believe that he passed us by. She was not happy.

Changes

Our new location

Change #1

We have arrived at our new destination.  Any guesses where it is?  We were also here last year.  The same park, but a different site.  There were predictions of ice here yesterday, but we just had a cold rain. The weather here is colder than Houston this week. 

Change #2


We have a new laptop!  Mama got really tired of the battery not holding a charge longer than 20 minutes and then the power cord didn't want to charge it. She literally had to wiggle the cord to get it into a position to charge and then she had to hold it in that place to make it charge.  It is hard to type with one hand.  We haven't been posting much because of our computer problems.

We are learning how to use this computer because it has Windows 8.  Mama is catching on to it, but it will take a while to get all of our favorite links setup.  We didn't know if it would be hard to get our pictures to load from our camera, but it worked easily.  Mama was a little concerned about that.  This laptop has a touch screen and Mama really likes it and I think it is cool.

Last Thursday, the folks visited our "address".  We use a mail forwarding service through Escapees which is a RV club. The folks drove there to have a look around and they were able to pick up their mail. The club is really nice because they have a care center for members if they become ill.  They are able to receive medical treatment and while still living in their RV and they also have meals delivered.  They also have a rec room that Mama checked out. Women were sewing, quilting and doing other crafts.  Mama said she was the youngest one there.  BOL!  The campground was pretty nice and the rates are really low for members. 

It sounds like we have a busy day ahead of us with doing laundry and setting up this computer.

Home Again - Part 3

 Well, we just realized that we didn't finish telling you about the rest of our trip home.  I don't know if we even remember the res...
