Our Location today is McGregor, Ontario,
Canada.
Kathy
could barely keep her eyes open last night so she was in bed before 11:30 while
I continued reading the Blogs we
follow. As I was reading I thought I was hearing things outside so I opened a
couple of windows. There was no mistaking the sound this time as it was a sound
I became accustomed to last winter, Coyotes.
There have been many sightings reported on the Local News for a number of years but last night reminded me of the Night-Time Desert Sounds. By what I could
hear they were within the Wildwood RV Park Area.
We
didn’t even need the Heavy Bedcover when
we went to bed last night for added warmth because the temperature actually
rose overnight. When we opened the Window
Shades in the Living Area and
looked outside the sky looked like we were about to have S@#w.
As
we were having our breakfast we had to start opening windows on the side of the
trailer to allow the warmer outside air in. The Weather Guessers were very much on the money as far as the High Winds coming from the southwest so
by leaving the back windows shut we weren’t getting the cooler breeze.
I cut
my morning reading short this morning because I wanted to get some of the Inside Projects scratched off our To-Do List. The first thing I started
with was removing the Television from
the Bracket over the Electric Fireplace. Since mounting our
Router, Modem and We-Boost behind
the Television it has been
impossible for the latch to work. The Router
was too thick causing the Swing Arm
Bracket to not come together. Remounting the Electronics differently still had the same affect so I had to go
through my Parts Organizers in the Truck where I found Spacers with Longer Screws. This
allowed me to add a Half Inch of
Clearance which lets the Travel
Latch work the way it should.
For
lunch we enjoyed another serving of our Homemade
Turkey Noodle Soup along with Strawberry
Covered Yogurt for dessert.
After
lunch we started getting Rain Showers
on and off along with Thirty-Five MPH Winds
so things started cooling down. By 2:00 we had to start closing the windows in
order to stay warm.
My
next project was to adjust our Skylight
Cover that I made in the Bathroom.
It was made to keep the Hot Sunlight out
in the summer and the Cold Air out
in the winter which it does well. It seems the Sunlight was still finding ways
to seep around the Panel that I’d made. Having used “J” Rail to make the slides I needed to trim it back. When I removed
the inside cover I had another mess to deal with. If you recall our Skylight was destroyed when we hit a Low Flying Bird while coming into Ohio last spring. Even though I had been very thorough of
cleaning things up when I replaced the Skylight
there was lots of Debris that came
falling down this afternoon. After trimming the “J” Rail and reinstalling the Bathroom
Skylight Cover it was so dark in there I needed to turn the light on to see.
For
supper Kathy couldn’t make up her mind what to have so she cooked some Perogies and micro-waved some Chicken Egg Rolls. May sound weird but
they actually tasted pretty good together.
We’ve
already had to cycle the furnace a few times to warm the trailer up this
evening. The Weather Guessers are forecasting 39 F (4 C) tonight.
Guess we’ll be keeping the Heavy Bedcover
on tonight. They also forecasted 55 F
(13 C) for a high tomorrow. Fall is Back! Thanks for following along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe
and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

Television hookup ... now there's a project I would never attempt!!
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty interesting how you have all the electronics mounted behind the TV. You don;t get any interference with all of that in close proximity?
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a productive day. We are crossing our fingers that the weather guessers are wrong there is the use of the "snow" word on the 26th up our way.
ReplyDeleteWith Coyotes around late night walks could be exciting!
