The New Summer Palace

My new, fabulous camper arrived yesterday. I took a long hot shower this morning (that's new), and washed several loads of clothes last night (no lugging the laundry to the Community Center and saving up the quarters for the machines). I even have an icemaker for Pete's sake.

There is still much work to do, but I have to make a run to Texas to check in on my Winter Palace. Maybe when I get back all my stuff will magically be unpacked and put away.

In bird news, I've been seeing a lot of Yellow-headed Blackbirds lately. I never saw one before this year, and now I see them all the time. A big flock of Pelicans has arrived in one of the many little ponds near here. I thought they were swans before I got closer.

There are blossoms on my strawberries, and the lilacs are starting to pop. I can't wait until I get back to pick a big 'ole bunch of them.
