It was another 37 degree morning and the ground was white with frost. There was no wind and it did get up to the low 60’s with a lot of sun. Our morning started out different than most mornings. We had our morning coffee, showered and got dressed before we took our morning walk. Today was the park wide yard sales and craft sale at the Rec Hall. So Cheri and I were out checking out the yard sales at 7:00 am. It wasn’t to start until 8:00 am but a lot of people had things already set out. Cheri bought some material at one stop for $1.00, than we bought 5 DVD movies for 25 cents each along with a portable DVD player for $10.00 and a new indoor/outdoor wireless thermometer for 25 cents. We drop off that stuff back at the 5th wheel and continued our walk. On another stop I bought a Craftsman skill saw with case for $12.00. I told Cheri it was her Christmas present, she didn’t think that was a good idea. On the way back to the 5th wheel we stopped at the Rec Hall to check out the crafts. Then we drove over to Golden Corral for breakfast. When we got back we went over to Grandma’s and she had been out riding around the park with Carol. We took the van and headed for New Port Richey for the main street craft sales and the evening boat parade. We were going to be near Hobby Lobby and Cheri wanted to stop and do some Christmas shopping for Cece. When we got to New Port Richey we walked the main street and checked out all the different crafts. Cheri found some jewelry that she bought which looked very nice and I got to help her pick out a couple of pieces. Then we went back to the van and watched one of the movies on the DVD player we bought this morning. It worked great and the movie we watch was Angels Fall which was very good. After the movie we walked over to a fish, vegetable, sandwich, and ice cream shop. We each had a bowl of homemade New England clam chowder. Then of course to finish things off we had to have ice cream. Then we walked over to the park with our chairs and waited for the boat parade which was very nice. There were between 25 and 30 boats. All decorated with lights and some even had bands playing music. It was a great evening and we got home around 9:30 pm. I took a few pictures of the murals on some of the building downtown and in the park along with a few of the boats that were in the parade. See album: New Port Richey.
