Winding down

We went to IKEA with Jason on Saturday.  We had never been before.  Wow, what a store, huge, innovative, a very varied inventory.  Way more than we had imagined.  About the size of two Home Depots or Lowes stacked on top of each other.  It was very busy and we got there early.  They even have a full cafeteria.  Then we had to stop at the outlet mall on the way back, it was packed to the gills, no parking places, people everywhere.  I'll tell you, this recession or whatever it is sure is different from any I've seen before.  Stores, restaurants, hotels, and shops are packed and busy.  I don't get it.
We had dinner with my mom last night with Ray and Jason, but she wasn't doing too well.  She keeps on her game face, but she is real uncomfortable.  She's on a tough road.
Couple more visits and our time in Florida will be done for now.
Jan and I tackled another little chore Sunday.  We have three AC's on the roof and Monaco installed 2 small cups on each one so the condensate is collected in the cups, drains into a plastic line and allows the water to drain underneath the coach instead of run down the sides.  A couple of the lines were plugged, so we had to lower ceiling panels, get to the lines and try to run a snake through them to clear it out.  After getting tons of water all over our heads, we think we got all but one of the lines clear.  Never ending stuff, huh?
