Oh no, the thunder is rolling

Eastbank Campground - site 18

Bainbridge, Georgia

I sure am glad today didn't end the way it began.  Momma's weather app predicted rain to begin around 3pm.  Well, they certainly got that wrong.  The rain along with....do I dare even think about it....THUNDER started up in the morning.  It had me quaking on all fours and breathing heavy.  I REALLY don't like thunder....at all!!  Luckily, by lunchtime, the racket had stopped along with the rain so I could enjoy the rest of my day.

Momma used her recipe from the New Orleans School of Cooking to make a batch of Pecan Pralines to share with everyone at happy hour.

And by 3pm, the weather allowed everyone to gather for happy hour. 

I think you'll notice that the attire is very different from the day before when everyone was in short sleeves and shorts.  It was so warm yesterday, Dad even dug out the box fan to stir the air a bit. 

Today, everyone was bundled up to stay comfortable with the lower temperatures in addition to a bit of wind adding to the chill.  Time to pull the hood on.

But Dad's bedroom clock was certainly telling a different tale...even after changing the battery in the outdoor temperature sending unit.

You had to divide that outside temperature of 113 nearly in half to get closer to the actual temperature of low 60's.  I think it's time to think about ordering a replacement unit.

Dad grilled dinner tonight.

But dinner was served inside rather than outside on the picnic table.

After dinner, I got in another game of ball in the grassy area behind our camper.  Loads of room to stretch out and get up some speed as I chased that swift moving ball.  I got pretty worn out and had to take a short rest break.

Then it was game on again before the sun began to set over Lake Seminole.

Travel day once again tomorrow as we head closer to home with one last campground stop on our spring caravan adventure for 2024.  I just love traveling and creating memories with my friends.
