Redo Progress and Detouring Storm.

Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario.

Click on the pictures to enlarge.

After a few ups and downs through the night we both managed to get an earlier start to our day. It could have had something to do with wanting to get the Redo completed in the Trailer, all while putting up with rising temperatures ahead of a forecasted Thunderstorm, this afternoon.

Our breakfast snack held us over until we were driving down the Parkway in the Truck. Thankfully, we still have some Wendy’s Coupons to cut down the cost of eating out. Though it was an early lunch, Kathy still was not up to par and passed a few of her Chicken Nuggets over to me.

After putting the Mattress back in the Kitchen, things went fairly quick because I remembered to grab the Tools I would need from the Car. Just when it looked like it would be an easy modification, we found the shelf had been Stapled at the factory, and I did not have a tool to cut through them.

Leaving the Covered Ceiling Vents open to avoid heat build up, we headed off to Princess Auto. In a matter on minutes I found what I needed and even got a few extra blades. When we went to that store more often we always walked through the Surplus section. Today, I did it for another reason. I had purchased some Aluminum Material to make brackets for the Solar Panels. Since that has gone to the wayside, I wanted to get an idea of their resale value. As we were walking through the Surplus section, there was a heavier built tool identical to what I was about to purchase, for the same price but one that will outlast the other.

Heading back to the Truck we noticed the sky starting to fill with Clouds, so it looked like the forecast would be accurate. We stopped at The Home Depot, for a single piece of Wood Trim and Stain, to complete the modification. Walking back outside, the Clouds looked like they would be wetting us down at any moment.

Kathy stayed in the Truck while I made certain all the Windows and Vents were closed. Even though it was not supper Hot, we had both been sweating before, and it was getting worse. I then loaded the Tools and the Headboard into the Truck.

Kathy took me up on the offer to be dropped off at the front entrance while I parked the Truck. Inside the Apartment, we needed to turn on the Air Conditioner. Lately, I have not been handling the Heat anywhere close to when I was working. I was in the process of checking my Radar, when I lost another Hour.

I surprised Kathy with Spare Ribs, Mashed Potatoes and Green Peas for supper with Carbonated Juice (Fake Wine) for supper, along with Water Mellon chunks for dessert.

The Weather Guesser on the “6 o’clock Local News”, talked about the sudden Rainfall that struck downtown Windsor around 3:00 this afternoon, before heading back to Detroit. Our parking lot is still dry.

With an appointment tomorrow, I’m not sure what will get accomplished.
