On Sunday October 20th we drove down to the Port St. Lucie Civic Center to go to the Treasure Coast Home and Garden Show. We stopped at several vendor booths to look at their products and pick up copies of their brochures. We saw a garage door screen that retracts up instead of sliding to one side (keep that in mind for later), cleaning products, windows, hurricane shutters and home insulation products. After the home show, we stopped at the Perkins restaurant near the civic center for lunch.
We called American Home Base to cancel our mail service with them before it was time to pay for another year. All of our mail went to them and they would send us our mail when we called and gave them an address where we were staying. We had been paying $162 a year (cheaper than paying the fee monthly) for their service. Because our mail has been going to a mail service, we can't put in a change of address form with the Post Office. We were told that they would forward our mail once a month for 6 months and the fee would be $20 to cover the cost of postage.
This last Wednesday was Fletcher's 44th birthday! It's hard to believe that he's that age - it doesn't seem that long ago that he wasn't old enough to start school!
We had our next door neighbors Lilly and Terry over for dessert and coffee on Halloween afternoon. They told us they only had a few Trick or Treaters last year.
Mike and I thought we were going to be stuck with a lot of candy, but we had over 30 Trick or Treaters. This was Tinker's first experience with Trick or Treaters. We were usually staying at The Willows in Dothan for Halloween and we didn't have any kids come by. Tinker would hear the kids coming before they got to the door and he would bark to tell us they were there.
Mike took the RV out for a drive yesterday down I-95 to the Vero Beach exit and back home again. He took our neighbor Terry with him for the drive. After getting home Mike greased the motorhome using his grease gun.
