No Cookies for Bill



The Turtle has left the park. At last we are on the road. It took us a little longer than I thought it would to get started but we left Vero Beach and made out way up to Juniper Springs campground in the beautiful Ocala National Forest. We were slowed down on the way in a small trafic jam (slow going but never a complete stop) on I95, it lasted about 45 min. This is our first time in a camp that doesn't have hookups.
The good news is that we can run the generator anytime between 8 in the morning and 10 at night. We only get 2 chanels on the TV and they are kind of fuzzy. Oh the spanish ch comes in real clear. We were really tired the first night what with all the work we had been doing for 2wks before we left and there is some work once you get to your destination. Getting the camper in just the right spot (we got a pull thru site) unloading the bike and getting all the furniture in place etc....Thank goodness we had brought leftovers with us and only had to heat them in the microwave.


After we had our pjs on Bill asked the question "Well where are my cookies?". I thought they might be in the cupboard over the couch and he looked there to no avail, then I said they might be in the cupboard over the sink and he looked there with the same results. He looked for about 10 min everywhere he could think that I might have put cookies but the results where always the same. With a sad face he turned and announced "No cookies for Bill tonight", I might even have seen a tear slide down his cheek. I guess on each trip there are happy times and some sad times too.





I found the cookies the next day!!










Happy trails.....

Kerry,I have a couple of questions:1. Are you staying out of Bill's way when he puts THE TURTLE in a spot?
2. Are you hiding my buddy's cookies? (if you are you need to cut it out.)
And most importantly "DON'T BE PICKING ON MY BUDDY BOOTHE!!
Also Cheryl says HI and it's fun reading your blog.

I don't think I have ever seen a bigger smile on Bills face! Maybe he should keep a secret stash in the glove box - hint, hint, Bill.
