Another Adventure!

Once we arrived home in June, it was time for doctor appointments and work on Sol. The shade we ordered at MCD in McKinney, Texas, arrived a couple of days after we did! Bob enlisted the help of our neighbor and they had the old shade out and the new one in and working like a charm in one afternoon! The next big thing for Sol was a new windshield. The original was cracked in California and then chipped in Arizona on our return trip. The glass people came to the house to fit Sol's new windshield. Sol sat in the driveway for two days to let everything set before Sol returned to her home in the garage.

Of course, we participated in our neighborhood 4th of July Parade.
 Our neighbor even brought her horse to lead the parade.
Before we knew it, it was time to pack Sol and hit the road again. This time our granddaughter was traveling with us! It was her first trip in Sol without Mom and Dad! We told Syd that we would stop at every playground we saw as long as Sol would fit in the parking lot. First playground stop---Ewing Memorial Park in Callahan, Florida.
Our second playground stop was Laura S. Walker State Park in Waycross, Georgia. We also camped there for the night. We were able to get a site on the water....
 ....which was close to the swings. If you look closely, you can see Sol in the background.
 Not long after we arrived, the rains came. Luckily, the shower didn't last long and we were able to go explore the playground in the day use area. We took paper towels to dry the equipment.
After realizing everything was too wet to dry, we decided to walk to the entrance.
Just in front of the office was an irresistible puddle. Syd made the most of a giant jump into the center of the puddle.
The following morning we returned to the playground. We found a path through the woods from the campground to the day use area.
After playing on the playground, we returned to Sol to get ready to move on to the next park.
