Currently on annual leave and have towed the caravan to a site in Lytham St Annes where my parents live as we are going to spend some time with them over the next ten days.

Photos will be added on a daily basis.

 

The hard standing on which the caravan is pitched lives up to its name.

The Persuader ( my lump hammer) has been used in anger in order to peg the awning down.

Oh no, @hedgehog! 😬 A broken tooth is no way to start the day! Hope it behaves itself until Monday. Take care! ☕😊

Ooops. Yeah just one key is not a good place to be mind you where do you store the extra key? If you pick the wrong place you can lock both keys in easily 🙂

On this case I never had a spare key, That's taking a chance I would never need a extra !!!!! my extra are in the house in a special place, I also have a iron strong box screwed to house outside for emergency, as you see normally I am up with these things, this Time I failed Badly 🤔 🤔

So today we have been out for Sunday lunch with my parents at the Queens Hotel in Lytham, just over the road from the windmill.

After lunch we walked over to the windmill and for the first time ever I went inside to look at the displays and information.

It has a rich and fascinating history, and naturally I took some photos which are now added to the gallery, including one with a church in the background which is where I was christened in nineteen hundred and frozen to death.

Yesterday was a good one. Hit the Giants game for Grateful Dead Night, scored a new jersey, caught Moonalice, and spent the evening with a couple of my brothers. Baseball, live music, good company—hard to complain about that.

Not much on tap today, which after a night like that sounds just about right. ⚾️💀🌹🎶

Good Morning FGM ☕ ☕ ☕  Heading over to our neighborhood theater today to catch a play. Always enjoy being able to walk from the house, see a show, and stroll home afterward.
