Our Location today is Punta Gorda, Florida, USA.
Throughout last night after we got home from posting the
blog we needed to run a cube heater to dry the moisture from inside our trailer
because of all the rain we’ve had the Humidity level was 100%. That didn’t make
for as restful a night’s sleep as the nights when we slept with the windows
open. That also meant that Kathy slept later to make up for her restless night.
Since we don’t want to take the chance to overrun our data
plan on our hotspot we did something that we haven’t done in quite some time
this morning. Once we were dressed we were busy reading. Kathy then made the
suggestion that we do the laundry today rather than waiting until we arrived in
the Keys. So with a change of plans for our lazy day I started sorting the
clothes. We also took the time to have lunch before leaving the trailer.
At the Laundromat in Punta Gorda the place was packed with
people who only have the weekends to do such a chore. Hoping that I’d get this
done early was a mistake. Kathy managed to do a lot of reading while I finished
a number puzzle while the wash was being done. It was past 3:30 by the time we headed
back to the trailer putting up with the rush hour traffic of those trying to
escape their 9 to 5 jobs.
After getting the clothes put in their proper spots and
saying our See-Ya’s to the neighbors that we’ve become friends with I returned
to the trailer to start writing most of today’s happenings down in the form of
our post.
It was nearly 6:00 by the time we arrived at the McDonalds
to make our final post for this month but for some reason or another my
computer was extremely hot when I took it out of its carrying case and would
not fire up. On the way home we did stop to top off our fuel tanks so we can
get an early start in the morning and not have to worry about that chore. We’ve
also been busy when we got back to the trailer closing up as much as possible
tonight. Tomorrow we leave Punta Gorda and head for Sugar Loaf Key. I’m taking
the chance of posting from the trailer tonight hoping I don’t exceed our data
plan so there won’t be any pictures. Thanks for following along and feel free
to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

in February there be no rain, 'tis neither good for hay nor grain.
Safe travels in the morning.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm wonder if something is keeping your fan on your laptop from kicking in? I know mine would act funky during very humid conditions. Hope it's better now.
ReplyDeleteWe are 3 days from our next batch of fresh data on our plan.. so we are skimping a bit and turning off the data each time we not actively doing something on the computer. I went on and clicked to open each blog I read so each is in a new window... then turn the data off while I read them. I turn it back on for the replies and shut it off again.
I think we will make it without having to add an extra GB or two.
