First Landing SP - Virginia Beach, VA (day 2)

It's a special day...it's retired Mother's Day (that is the closest day to Mother's Day with good weather, so we celebrate just because we can!)...it's also the second Wednesday of the month which is Social Security check day (it's my very first Social Security check...can't wait to spend it on something)!

For Mother's Day we walked the beach and biked to Broad Bay.  After the walk on the beach, Drex had no more blood in his legs and decided to take a nap in the RV, after the twelve mile bike ride to Broad Bay, Deb had no more blood in her legs and decided to take a nap in the RV.  Once they had both recovered, we took the beach chairs, dog blanket, and umbrella to the beach to watch the surf.  after lugging everything back, I had no more blood in my legs...you can guess what came next.

Tonight's meal is Beef Stew...except for...there was a little confusion as to whom was suppose to pack the potatoes.  Fortunately, there is a Food Lion only a few blocks from the campground.  With an expedited closing up of the RV, we rolled down to the store...got some potatoes and were back at the site within twenty minutes.  Beef Stew is much better with potatoes than with the other starch choices we had...spaghetti or rice...

To top off a great day, we had a fire...using another Dragon in the Box fire starter (an absolute must have for anyone making campfires)...With Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia Ice Cream, followed by an episode of Survivor.   Happy Retired Mother's Day!
