Day 97 Peoria Friday August 24, 2018

The clouds marched in overnight. The temperature stayed mild. The day was cloudy all day with a few light showers. Temps in the mid 70s.

Today was engine maintenance day. It was a good day to change oil, tighten some belts, seal an oil leak and check the water flow in the engines. The cloudy cooler day made a potentially miserable day in a hot (need to warm the engines to be able to pump out the oil) engine room workable. A great use of the day.

With all my work, and  Faye doing laundry which is a big job when the washer and dryer are a long distance away, we decided to treat ourselves to dinner at the IVY club restaurant. It was very good. This has been a great place to stop.  Here are a few pictures. I will start with some more from our slip and then show you the front - that is much nicer than the view from the back. And the inside is very nice as well - should have gotten some shots inside - may be tomorrow.




The front is much more impressive. Looks like a club you would expect to see at the Kentucky Derby


A full size pool is great. And if you look to the upper right you can see the corner of a kids pool that is 1 foot deep - how nice!!


Now that we are back from dinner and the sun has set, I will say ..............

Good Night and May God Bless
