An easy day today. Some reading and serious nap time...
Giselle and André came over for supper. Great time.

I had to get up early today ! I had an appointment at U-Haul to
install a hitch on the car. My appointment is at 9 am but I got
there at 8 15 am. The employee sees me and take my car keys. Then
at 915 am they came over and told me the hitch is not here yet!
&?%$#@. This is not starting well!
They gave me a van to use until the car is ready. Later in the
day,
they called and informed me that the hitch will not be here until 4
pm. I gave the van back and booked another appointment for Monday.
On the bright side of the day!
At our campground, every weekday mornings we play either
shuffleboard or pétanque. You can see my red t-shirt playing
shuffleboard. The campers are very easy going.

A little while back, we decided to do some remodeling in our
motorhome. We wanted to change one of our couches for two
Lazy-Boys kind of chairs. Giselle ans André drove us around
furniture stores looking for chairs for our living room. We found
them at the Lazy-Boys store. That evening we had supper with
Giselle and André. Supper was very good, again, and for bonus we
played Mexican Train, a domino game. Thanks for a great day and
evening André and Giselle!

Having purchase our Lazy-Boys, we now have to remove the couch from the
motorhome because Monday we want to clean/wash the living room
carpet. The couch is very easy to disassemble and move out of the
motorhome. Thanks to Giselle and André for taking our couch right
away.

Another day that starts early.
Back to U-Haul for the second try at the installation of our hitch...
@#&#$%.
They managed to order a hitch for a Pontiac G6 and I have a G5 ! The
paper work also said G5.
Home I go with another moving van. I use the van to get the
carpet cleaning machine. By mid afternoon I got a call from
U-Haul. They tell me it will take a little longer because they
have to get the hitch from somewhere else.
Do I care where it comes from? Just get the job done!
I am not mad, just frustrated at the incompetence of people. The
American wonder why it is so hard to get out of the recession. I
think I know why!
Back to cleaning the carpet, no problems with that.
At 330 pm I get a call from U-Haul. Our car is ready for pick up
and it has the right hitch! I get the car but no tips for anybody
working there. However, I have to say it is a well done job.
My beautiful van!

Today we decided to have an easy day! Pool time, some serious
reading and a bike ride. You get to see all kinds of things on a
bike ride, like this super high Jeep!

Our Lazy-Boys are coming today !
Without the couch for a few days, we found that the Lazy-Boys are
taking lots of room. We got used to it very fast, a nice change
from the couch to the Lazy-Boys. We are very happy with our
choice.


Another great week relaxing and visiting Giselle and André.
What a life...
