Wednesday March 14, 2018-Whistle Stop RV Resort

We slept in this morning, until after 8! It's cool at night here and cold in the morning, but it sure is good sleeping. Dave T. came over early for a visit and he and I went for a walk around the park. The walking was pretty hard because of all the new gravel throughout the park, but we still walked almost 2 miles. There is a lady that Dave has talked to that walks her two dogs a total of 5 miles a day. Wow, I'm in awe, not so much for the distance but for the walking surface. I don't think I could do that far every day.

The weather has been good here, with cool/cold nights that warm into the 70's with clear skies. I just visited with friends and just generally took it easy. Later in the afternoon about 20 of us went to an expensive steak house in Buffalo Gap called Perini Ranch. It had received rave reviews from others that had gone there, but I was not that impressed. When our waiter took the orders for food, he used his own method for distributing the food when it came out. The problem was that other waiters helped him and everything got fouled up. As a result, most of the food sat on serving trays for a long time and the food got cold. I thought the food was grossly overpriced, with several $30-40 steaks. I chose a hamburger steak, one of the less expensive dishes, but at $19 for an 8oz. steak with green beans, it should have been better. Rant over.

We returned home and since everyone was full from supper, we all went in and retired for the night. Many more rally-goers will arrive tomorrow and the rally officially begins on Friday.

So long.
