Dinner at Fiesta Mexico

It was cold again yesterday - 52 for the high and 30 for the low. We hope this doesn't indicate that a cold winter is on its way. I have to start up the car 5 minutes before we leave in the morning so that it gets warmed up and the windows are all clear before we leave. That's the biggest negative for working here this time of the year. Kentucky is still too far north to have southern, warm, winter weather.

The management at work actually tried to get volunteers yesterday for people to take voluntary overtime for the rest of the weekend. Wow! That's a first and we aren't sure how many people volunteered, but it's for sure we weren't going to be in that group. The work is slow and they do not have freight deliveries scheduled for this weekend, so that is what prompted the move.

Our dinner last night at the Fiesta Mexico was lots of fun. This time I had the camera along:


You probably remember that sign from last year when we also had dinner there, but with a different group of friends. This time, we had three other couples:


That's Pam on the left, Valarie and Scott, Jeff (Scott's older brother) and his wife Marsha, and Bobby (Pam's husband). Bobby and Pam are staying in our campground and this is their first workamping job after selling their Blinds and Shades business in North Carolina. We worked with Scott and Valerie last year and his brother Jeff and his wife are here for the first time. The waiter we had performed a balancing act we've never seen before while carrying out our meals:


He never wavered and the food was very good.

We spent a lot of time chatting following dinner and we got home after 8 PM, just in time to turn in for the night.

It's 43 outside this morning so once again it looks like a wide swing in the weather. It is so different from last year - so far - and we're hoping for at least one last warm spell before the real winter weather arrives...
