January through April 2019

Lake Manatee State Park

Bradenton, FL

The first four months of the year we spent work-camping, visiting family, celebrating special occasions, taking care of truck issues, making improvements to our RV and doctor visits.

We celebrated my Dad’s 85th birthday in January.
My daughter Renee is on the left and Monte's daughter, Melissa is on the right.
My daughter Renee flew in from Arizona for a short visit. 
 
We crammed a lot of activities in one week including a day out on my brother’s boat.

We attended a gender reveal party to find out the sex of my nephews’ baby due in July. 
It’s a boy so my grandnephew will have a baby brother.


 
 
To show their appreciation, the staff at Lake Manatee State Park hosted a dinner and awarded certificates.
 
 

 
We were able to spend a lot of time with our co-workers at potluck dinners and casual get-togethers.

Our truck began hesitating when we went over a certain speed.  Luckily we found a local place to take it where they specialize in diesels and were able to diagnose the problem as the Throttle position sensor.

 
 
 
Monte installed a surge guard.  We had been using a plug in surge protector.  It worked great but having a wired in surge protector makes us feel just a little safer.

 
We also had to replace the fan in the evaporator. 


And I decided to replace the wallpaper border in our living room and bathroom. 
The border on the right is the old border and was the same in the living room and bathroom.


We were scheduled to leave Lake Manatee on May 1st to get back on the road again for 7 months but unfortunately Monte has a health issue that is going to prevent us from leaving.  He has some tests and follow-up doctor appointments scheduled for May.  SO at this point our plans are up in the air.
