The photo is actually of last night's sunset, but I am enjoying a beautiful sunrise this morning. Yesterday turned into a Keystone Kops kind of day, only not so funny. When we finally got the call that the new water pump had been installed in the camper, Butch headed to Cedar Rapids to pick it up while I moved all of the necessary gear into the staging area, AKA dining room. And waited.
He got to CR and went into the camper to make sure the pump ran--and it did--but discovered the cord had been broken on the door blind, so another hour while they fixed that. Then a traffic jam while leaving Cedar Rapids because of an accident. I-380 between Cedar Rapids and Iowa City seems to be the epicenter of traffic accidents. By the time he got home and we reloaded everything, we determined that we may as well eat our supper and get that out of the way.
Long story short(er), by the time we reached West Overlook campground at the Coralville Reservoir, we finished our setup just in time to snap a couple of photos of a wondrous sunset and share dessert with our camping buddies.
The weather is supposed to be perfect the next few days and hopefully there will be plenty of time for writing, quilting, and just visiting. Last night was a perfect night for sleeping and we needed it.
