Wednesday, 27 May 2020: On the road again? Only to Stevens Point


 
We've had a few, well, not really "firsts" in the last couple of days, but almost "firsts."  
After we met with Rich at Hartung so he could pick up tires and wheels and I continues with laundry (funny how pleased I am to be able to do that in my own washer and dryer!), and after a trip to Menard's, we had Thai for dinner.  There is a very small restaurant not far from our Hartung house.  We ordered take out and ate out on the deck overlooking the river  The Pad Thai was scrumptious!  This was the first time we’d eaten out for dinner since we had BBQ in Oklahoma when we were on the road back from Celestun.

Today, we were back on the road, albeit for only a couple of hours.  We went to Stevens Point to go to Jung Seed Store.  Justin had tried to order some items on line but then we decided we wanted to actually look at the stock.  Unfortunately, the only apricot tree they had was for zone four.  That's like South Carolina.  This was very disappointing.  

We stopped at a few antique/junk stores along the way.  At one store there were two black labs I so wanted to bring home.  They played with their golf ball bringing it back for you to throw again and again.  They were so very well behaved and there was no
slobber ball" at all.  Yes, Gemma was jealous.  

On the way home through Appleton we stopped at JDs.  Justin thinks their claim to fame is their turtle sundae,  yes it is good, even great.  But I’d tell you that they have the best burger in Wisconsin.  Probably just as well that it is more than an hour away!
