Out of the wilderness.....

8:04 am - Thursday - January 29th - TWW - 26° F, humidity 27%, cloud cover 0%, wind 8 mph out of the east by northeast....crystal clear, blue, sunny skies today with a forecast high of 55° F.  The view this morning.....

  .....and on this date in 2013 TLE and I were enjoying our 31st sunset at the Tiki Bar....

The world famous Tiki Bar at Low Key Hideaway in Cedar Key, FL

.....and for once a view of the Tiki Bar taken just after sunset.

We haven't been away from TWW since we returned from Prescott on January 16th.  We were pretty sure there was no mail in our PO Box, but TLE needed a few grocery items so we headed into town in the Explorer around 10:30 am, arriving without incident in Seligman around 11 am.  Our first stop was at the Route 66 General Store to fill up three of our 5 gallon propane tanks, plus two 5 gallon gas cans, plus I needed some screws for a small project, and a couple bottles of Stabil (fuel conditioner).  We needed some ether starting spray, but they only had half bottles at the General Store so we headed across the street to check out the automotive section at the Chevron where we found the full size ones.

Next we headed to the Seligman Market to buy some of their amazing sour dough bread, then back to have lunch at Highway Hot Dog, where we've been several times before.  I had their Sonoran Hot Dog and TLE their daily special called 'The Phoenix' (turkey sandwich with all the trimmings).....

The Sonoran with wedge fries (they also offer onion rings)

....I was hoping to have a beer with my hot dog, but they just got their liquor license and are not yet serving alcohol.....maybe next time.  I settled for a Dr. Pepper (my favorite soft drink).   Our last stop in town was Family Dollar where TLE went in to do her shopping, while I walked next door to check for mail, and as we suspected, there was none.

By the time we finished shopping, and headed for home it was 1:30 pm.  Our return trip took 30 minutes. As soon as I turned off the Explorer we exited the car to total silence.  We love that about TWW.  It is so quiet here.  What's the old idiom...."the silence is deafening"?  It is so quiet it is immediately noticeable.

By the time we finished putting things away it was almost  3 pm, and what little warmth had been in the air was quickly dissipating, so we called it a day, and settled in to read the rest of the afternoon away.  In the evening we began watching the final 4 episodes of Landman to finish out Season 2.  As we understand Season 3 is in the works, so it will be a while before it is released.  To say the least, we are hooked!  What a well written series.  Sam Elliott just steals the second season (he plays the father to Billy Bob Thornton's character 'Tommy Norris').  What a great actor.  If you have seen Season 2 you know exactly what I'm saying.

Thanks for stopping by!
