The donkeys from across the street when they paid us a visit.
 
I awoke early and when I looked at the clock, it said 7:00 am. I thought about it for all of two seconds and rolled over and tried to go back to sleep. It did not happen, but I lay there still trying extremely hard. In the end, I gave up and got up. 

It was another bright and sunny day which I let in by opening all the blinds. As the day progresses, I will bring the blinds back down depending on which side the sun shines to help keep the RV cool. 

I harnessed up the dogs and tied them to the outside table and then went about the business of bringing out and filling bird feeders. This did not take too long as most of the feeders were still full. 
 
Then it was time to go walking. We hit the park first and then Henly Loop but for some reason, neither dog was into it. They both did a lot of sniffing and just after we started, both went to poop at almost the same time which was good as it saved a poop bag. This is known as a twofer or two for the price of one. I got tired of encouraging the dogs to walk as all they wanted to do was smell the roses, so I cut the walk short and returned to the RV. We still managed to cover 1.3 miles, a good start to the day. 

Back in the RV, I warmed up a Burrito and sat outside drinking coffee and eating and sharing with the dogs. Even though they had both eaten their own breakfast, which was good. Mine smelled better so they ended up with a taster. 

I sat on the deck looking at the weeds that had grown up almost overnight around the newly planted garden. In the end, I could not stand it anymore and attacked them with my trusty hoe spending at least an hour on the task. 

I also moved a flower I had already planted, that was blooming like crazy, into a sunnier area so that now, it will get sun almost all day. While I was at it, I watered the plants in the garden and those on the RV steps. 

With the outdoor chores taken care of, we sat on the deck for a bit admiring our handiwork before adjourning back indoors to write the blog. The birds were really busy on all the feeders including a couple of Hummingbirds. The Grackles are still here but not as many of them as before. 

With both the blog writing and posting up to date, I looked around for other things to get up to. As we usually do when I need something to do, we went out walking. This time, we walked the bottom road and managed to cover 2.6 miles for the day. 

Then it was food time both for the dogs and for me followed by the usual TV watching until it was time to go to bed.
