Have you baby proofed the house yet for when he tries to get into all the cupboards etc?
Oh no. That would be cheating.

Still tired from the soup kitchen. That definitely takes it out of you. Tooshy's knees have been bothering worse lately, but she says it's just a passing phase.
We're looking forward to getting away for a few days camping. I'm just glad to have the brakes fixed on the truck now. Thank God that didn't happen on the trip.

It's too bad that R8chel moved to Texas. Where we're going would only be a few miles away from where she used to live.

I've just heard so many people saying it was all over the news because of the damage there. I hope you're safe when you go.

Where we're going is in Indiana, not Texas. R8ch used to live in Indiana before she moved to Texas.

Sorry Ray. Don't know why I assumed you were going to TX.
Must be because it's past my bedtime. I'll talk to you later.

Hey, we're back. 
The campground was supposed to have wifi. After I didn't have a signal, I asked about it. Turned out that they only had it in their clubhouse...and then cost extra. The expense would not have been too bad, but it would have been rather inconvenient for us.
We did have an excellent time. Shipshewana is a shopper's paradise. We've been there before but it's been a long time ago. The area is heavily Amish. Horse-drawn carriages are everywhere...and watch out where you step.
There is a theater in town. We took the opportunity to catch the Called Out Quartet. It was a lovely evening with a very small (off-season for Shipshewana) crowd.
We also went the the famous and rather large flee market. The market was gravel. After quickly giving up on attempting to push the wheelchair, we rented an electric scooter. 
The rest of the trip, the wheelchair served us well. Though in a lot of the little shops, the aisles were too tight for the wheelchair. Being the off-season, there weren't always someone around to help with doors, so that was a minor challenge. On one street, most of the shops had steps into the front door. We walked that part, but it was about all that Tooshy could do. We didn't stay very long, and decided some of the shops weren't worth the steps. Steps are very difficult for her.
While there was plenty of shopping to be had, we didn't buy too much. Tooshy found a new purse she liked. (There were literally thousands to choose from.) Also we bought a few locally made wooden toys for the grandson.
The weather was fantastic. It was snuggly cool and only rained a little. The evenings were spent cooking out on the grill and keeping warm by the campfire. Also we watched DVD's on the laptop.

That sounds fantastic! I've got a real interest in things Amish and Mennonite. Fascinates me. I couldn't live the lifestyle, but it still fascinates me.
