I awoke and lay in bed thinking of the day ahead and what it might bring. We have nothing planned but I checked to be sure and realized that it was the first day of October. I have a Doctors appointment tomorrow with my eye doctor but it is not before 2:20 pm so no rush to get there.

As is our morning routine, Mikey helped me to bring out the feeders making sure that they all had seed. The number of birds has dropped off considerably and I suppose they have migrated to wherever they go for the winter. Although our Texas weather is still bloody hot. It is slowly cooling down but only by a couple of degrees.

I sat and worked on the blog bringing us up to date and thought about the day ahead. I glanced at the clock to see it was already 1:15 pm. Now, where did the time go?

It was still very hot outside not conducive to spending time outdoors so Mikey and I stayed indoors for the rest of the afternoon broken only by an afternoon walkabout for him to “go”. Then it was back indoors as fast as possible where it was lovely and cool. I thought about going grocery shopping and then decided that it wasn’t necessary and we could make do with whatever is in the refrigerator.

Time passed until it was time to bring in the bird feeders. I have noticed that there are very few birds that visit so I suppose that many have already left on their long journey to warmer climes for the winter.

With the feeders put away, it was time to move back indoors for the evening meal and entertainment.

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Thursday 10/02/2025

I got up at a reasonable hour and as we always do, harnessed up Mikey for that first all important walk. Mikey hopped down the steps to the grassy area and immediately cocked his leg and peed for about ten minutes. Well, OK maybe 30 seconds but it sure feels much longer. It’s a long time for him to hold it overnight.

We brought out the feeders and then went on that all important first walk just wandering around the park. We stopped at “the girls” RV where Peggy was sitting outside and I sat and chatted for a bit. BJ came home from her school bus drivers job as we were sitting there so I decided that we should continue with our walk.

We wandered around and then walked back to the RV for breakfast and that all important coffee. I worked on the blog and caught up with yesterday and started on today. Not much has happened so far and hopefully, it will stay that way. I knew that I had a Doctors appointment at 2:20 pm so I was keeping one eye on the clock to make sure I was not late.

I made the drive into Austin to my Eye Doctors office. I have been going to this Doctor for probably close to 50 years although my original Doctor has long retired. This time, I was treated by the original Doctors son who has taken over the business which I found very pleasing.

I spent almost an hour in there and managed to walk out without much in the way of changes to my eyesight meaning that I didn’t have to replace glasses. From that perspective, that appointment was very successful.

I made the drive back to Henly to be met by Mikey who wanted to go walkies which we did. We wandered around in the shady areas of the park before retuning to the coolness of the RV.

The rest of the day was the same as most of the previous ones.
