Wondering
Henly RV Park 02/12/2024  I sat here thinking and wondering why I have trouble making words fly it used to be to write a rhyme took me very little time but now the thoughts are not the same no longer jumbled in my brain to come out as a beautiful rhyme and even though I take the time no longer can I write the verse to stir the mind as yet unrehearsed because I cannot see the way for the words to…

The Adventures of an Old Man and an RV. Henly RV Park, Dripping Springs, TX Day 69, Tuesday 02/07/2023
A brave winter flower that survived the storm. I got up early and took a shower, reveling in the hot water and all the room within the shower unit. With a change of clean clothes, I felt like a new man. We harnessed up and wandered around the park making another stop at Quatro to pick up nail clippers.  Much to my surprise, I was able to find the clippers, and we continued with our walk. We did…

The Adventures of an Old Man and an RV. Henly RV Park, Dripping Springs, TX Day 74, Sunday 02/12/2023
The ceiling fan in the bedroom. I awoke early, for me, and crawled out of bed after a very good night’s sleep. The sun was shining although the wind still had a bite to it. We wandered around the park and then walked the length of the bottom road covering a mile in the process. A very good way to start the day.  I spent some time remaking the bed as somehow, I had not aligned the top sheet up…

Living in an RV Henly RV Park 03/26/24
Sitting and Waiting  I sat outside on the deck today waiting to see what might come my way truth to tell there was not much going on not even a bird singing its song a couple of birds did fly our way only for a minute did they stay as the bigger birds blocked their path and so it turned out they had to be last and wait their turn for the big birds to go I wonder why Nature planned it so in the…

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Sunday 04/21/2024
We had a tremendous thunderstorm just after I went to bed, and I lay there watching the flashes of lightning and listening to the rumble of the thunder. At one point, the storm was directly overhead or at least seemed that way, it was so noisy and there was no time between the lightning and the thunder.  Me and the dogs snuggled up feeling safe in our environment and even with all that noise and…

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Friday 04/19/2024
I awoke late and it was almost 9:15 am before I crawled out of bed. I jumped in the shower and was surprised to find that the water was not very hot. Needless to say, I did not stay in it for long and quickly dried off and dressed for the day.  I went outside and checked the water heater but could not get the thing to work on the electric side. The propane side works fine so at least I have hot…

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Thursday 04/18/2024
The massive oak tree we pass on our walks. I slept very well and was ready to get up instead of just lying in bed. That is a good sign, right? We harnessed up and went for a walk down the hill on the outside road and managed to cover 1.3 miles on that first walk.   Back in the RV, I fixed the dog’s breakfast and then cooked up some chicken nuggets. Unfortunately, when I tried to eat them, they…

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Wednesday 04/17/2024
After another late night, I was very reluctant to wake up let alone actually get out of bed. Finally, I managed to open my eyes enough to see that the clock said it was 9:15 am. It does not matter as we have nothing planned for the day, so a late start does not hurt anything except to give Daniel something else to kid me about.  I am still without hot water as Daniel has handed the job over to…

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Sunday 04/14/2023
I slept pretty good without having any nasty dreams and woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed as the expression goes, ready to face the day. I always say that, but the truth is that I live an extremely comfortable and busy enough life along with my two little dogs. We do not want for anything as if we do, I go out and buy it. That plus I have a lot of friends here in the campground and we are…

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Friday 04/12/2024
I woke up early but delayed getting up due to my laziness and because it was so comfortable laying there cuddling my two dogs. We eventually made the move and crawled out and after the cold-water treatment, I was ready to go.   The first thing was the feeders as it usually is. I was lucky with only having to refill the two big ones, then we went out for the first walk just around the grounds. We…

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Tuesday 04/09/2024
Living in an RV Henly RV Park Wednesday 04/10/2024 I slept late and it was 9:30 am before I even woke up. I have no idea why although I was probably dreaming of scary monsters or maybe even re-living the eclipse and keeping myself awake. We had nothing planned so waking late did not matter that much. I slopped cold water on my face to help complete the wake-up process and then harnessed up the…

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Monday 04/08/24
The Grackles waiting to eat at the bird feeders. They swoop in like one big cloud and the place is submerged in Grackles. The place was buzzing with excitement and preparations were going on to view the eclipse later today. The only drawback was that it was a cloudy day, and we may not get to see very much.   We harnessed up and went out walking, but we did not go far and when we got back,…

Bird Feeders
I have bird feeders hanging outside to feed the birds as the title implies not looking at any particular breed as all are welcome to eat the seed they fight and squabble as all birds do why they do it I have no clue as there are lots of feeders for them to eat all filled with seed their favorite treat the smaller birds all have learned keep one eye open and don’t get hurt by the bigger birds who…

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Saturday 04/06/2024
Are these “our” Zebras? If so, they have a new permanent home? Actually, I know they are not as I got to see our Zebra pair yesterday. I tossed and turned all night long and must have eventually dropped off to sleep as the bedside clock told me it was almost 9:00 am. I jumped out of bed straight into the shower to wake myself up. Cold water will do that pretty quick.  Then it was time to go out…
