MARCH 19-MARCH 25: Another Busy Week and A New Baby!

We decided to spend another week at the Moose Lodge in Wake Forest.  After getting in position to stay hooked up to water and sewer, this week will have a few more conveniences.   The weeks's schedule included two night meetings for Hank, a mammogram for Selene, and an appointment for Hank with his cardiologist. Our medical appointments are now finished and all results were good.

Friday evening, March 23 we enjoyed hamburger and onion rings at the Moose Lodge, while we watched the dart players and visited with members.

Saturday morning, we met with a group for breakfast at the Golden Corral in south Raleigh.  A low tire warning found us spending 90 minutes at Duty Tire across the street from GC getting a  faulty valve stem replaced.  Saturday eveing we enjoyed a delicious dinner and visit with Mary Jo and Chuck at their home in Raleigh.

Sunday morning, March 25, we got  Little House ready to move before going to the Lodge for an Easter Bunny Brunch - scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, grits, biscuit, pancakes, coffee, juice and milk - all for $6.  This was followed by egg hunts for the children, and we had a front row seat in the RV to watch all the festivities.  After the parking lot emptied some, it was time to unplug, pull up the jacks, say thank you and farewell, before we drove 16 miles to the NC State Fairgrounds and the campground near the Hunt Horse Complex.  We'll be here until April 2 to help with setup and activities for the Raleigh Amatuer Radio Hamfest to be held on March 31.

The big news of the week was the arrival of our second great-grandchild, Melody-Bell Martin on Friday, March 23 in Birmingham, AL. She decided to arrive 2 months earlier than predicted weighing 3 lbs. 1 oz., but is doing well  in the  NICU.
