It's about time.

Many of you can relate to Working long hours at your career. Raising your families. Buying a home and paying all the bills related to being homeowners and parents. We're now retired and don't need all that work and expense. Now "It's about time" and what we do to follow our dreams.

Making Appointments, Coaching A Future Fulltimer and Making Our Feelings Known.

Our Location today is McGregor, Ontario, Canada.

Even though we had a solid night of sleep the sound of Rain falling on our roof again lulled us to sleep past 8:30 this morning. Did that sound like a repeat of yesterday’s Blog? You’re right! The only problem was that it was like the movie “Ground Hog Day” but for us it was all about the Rain. We have had more then twice our normal Rainfall in our area this year. 
Hard to see the truck with all the Rain on the window.
All we could see outside the entire day was Rain. We did get a laugh while we were having our breakfast when a group of Golfers were trying to play a round by wearing raincoats and holding Umbrellas over one another’s Golf-Bags. Good thing there was no Lightning
Just after we saw Golfers on the Course.
Farmer's Field beyond the fence.
We managed to get our reading done early this morning as well as a number of other things. We confirmed our appointments for tomorrow with the Dentist and I’d barely hung up the phone when Dan the Benefits Representative at the Local also called. We made an appointment to discuss what appears to be a reduction in our Pension. While speaking to Dan I mentioned that we were Fulltiming as a way to save money as well as to enjoy our travels. Dan and his wife have been talking about doing just as we are doing when they retire in a few years. They had heard about people becoming Fulltime RVers but just didn’t know anyone personally. I directed him to our Blog and he plans on showing his wife tonight. He said he might have questions for us when we see him on Thursday. 
Homemade Chicken Noodle/Vegetable Soup.
For lunch Kathy served us both large servings of the Homemade Chicken Noodle/Vegetable Soup that she made the other day. We each had four meals from that one small chicken which is not bad. On larger chickens Kathy has stretched it out to seven meals. Soup Manufactures label some soups as a meal in a can. They are far from that but Kathy’s soup truly qualifies as a Meal in a Bowl.

This afternoon after we’d cleaned up the dishes Kathy went back Online to see what path Maria a Category 5 Hurricane will be following. The early projections are showing that it could follow the same path as Irma or veer north before reaching Florida and head up along the east coast without making Landfall. We are hoping for the later. 
Just past the trees beyond the Sand Trap
is the flooded Farmers Field.
I spent the afternoon monitoring the continuing Rain we were getting at the park. This Rain was by far less intense then we had when the Golf Couse was flooded in the last week of August but there was still enough water coming down to make the adjacent Farmer’s Field look like a small lake.

Another thing I spent the afternoon doing was writing up a summation of concerns that will be forwarded to Jayco. We are letting them know that they will be fixing all our problems properly and not just superficially. 
Homemade Pepper Steak on a bed of Rice
along with Cooked Apples for dessert.
For our supper tonight we finished the last of the Pepper Steak we also made the other day along with Cooked Apples for dessert. Our fridge is definitely starting to look Empty. The Weather Guessers on the 6 o’clock Local News are saying we can expect the Rain to finally stop by noon tomorrow. Thanks for following along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!

It’s about time.

  3. We have to agree, hope Hurricane Maria turns north and does not make landfall.
    Kathy's homemade soup looks delicious.

  4. We are having lots and lots of rain out here in Montana also but that's a good thing for all the fires we've had. I made hamburger soup for us. Love it on these chilly rainy days.
