W. P. Franklin Corps of Engineers Campground, N. Ft. Myers, FL: This morning dawned misty and chilly. Mike didn’t want to mess around with trying to fix the slide since he’d have to crawl under there in all the wetness. So, we took a load of laundry over to the laundry room and got that going. After the wash was done we put it in the dryer and went back and watched the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Went back to get the clothes out of the dryer and someone had opened the door and then not shut it, so everything was still wet. Put more money in the dryer and then back to the parade. Finally dried the clothes, folded and put away. Started dinner around 1:00. We bought a turkey breast that was fully cooked and packaged in plastic. All I had to do was remove the outer plastic covering, put a slit in the inner covering so the steam would escape and then stick it in a pan in a 325 degree oven for an hour. It came out so good! It was really juicy. There was so much juice I made a nice gravy. So we had turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, squash, and rolls. Stuffed ourselves. Watched TV for a while and then went for a walk since the sun finally came out. A really nice day.
