Still in Fort Dodge

Wow, time sure flies when you are having fun.

The crossword clue was "diary, of sorts", the answer was "blog" Maybe not true for me, because diary implies daily writing, like a journal....

We are still on Fort Dodge, at the Pendry RV Park. This past week my early birthday gifts arrived from Amazon.com. Thank you Ellen! A nice cordless Dremel Tool and the complete DVD collection of Richard Simmon's Sweatin' to the Oldies. Excited to use both!

In the same shipment was a new Catan game, Histories of Catan, Trails to Rails. We've played it twice, and really really like it. It is played on a mapboard of the U.S., settling cities, then linking them with rails to deliver goods, and delivering all your goods cubes wins the game. Played it with the Pendry's and once with daughter Erin...close games.

I have started carving again, with a couple of signs for friends to be finished in the fairly near future. There is something therapeutic about carving...as long as I pay attention to where the blade is and where it is going.

The rains have stopped, and hopefully Ames IA will get their water back on. It is so sad to see the mess of the flooding through central Iowa.
