Our Location today is La Posa South
L.T.V.A., Quartzsite, Arizona, U.S.A.
I was out of bed by 7:30
this morning and immediately started my normal routine, raising all the Window Shades. Unlike yesterday there
was a familiar sight that put a smile on my face. The Sun was making its way from behind the mountains without any of the
clouds that masked it from our sight yesterday.
After getting things ready
for breakfast I’d barely gotten on my Computer
to check The
Weather Network when Kathy came
downstairs at 8:00. As soon as she covered her legs with the Throw Blanket I knew it was time to cycle
the Furnace. I really have to get
that Blue
Flame Heater working that way it
would have the Trailer nice and
toasty for when Kathy would get up and not be wasting our Propane.
We kept our reading to a
minimum this morning because we had more then our normal chores to do today.
With all the dust that had been blowing in the wind this past week we needed to
change our Bedding. I simply
stripped the bed and sorted the remaining laundry along with a special load. It
was past 11:00 by the time we stopped at the Trash Bins before heading in to Quartzsite.
Our destination was the Main Street
Diner and Laundromat. Since we knew we
would be quite some time doing the wash we opted to having lunch first.
Michelle was happy to see us even addressing us by name. We were about to look
at the menus until she told us that the Luncheon
Specials were Hot Roast Beef
Sandwiches with Mashed Potatoes
and Gravy as well as Hot Turkey Sandwiches with Mashed Potatoes and Gravy at a very reasonable price. We hardly
waited and it was being served nice and hot. It tasted delicious and was just
the right size that Kathy said we were having Supper for Lunch and Lunch
at Supper.
We managed to get Six Washers all together which makes it
so much easier to keep an eye on them. After working on our Waste Tank yesterday Kathy wanted me to
wash those clothes separately. All that converted to Four Dryers with One
being on the Cool Cycle for our Bedding and Delicates. Even though it wasn’t crowded we’ve learned to work together
folding the clothes and bedding.
We were back Home
in La Posa
South LTVA by 2:30 and after
sitting for a few minutes I headed up stairs to put the fresh bedding on. When
that was finished I brought the Folded
Laundry upstairs to start putting it away.
As mentioned yesterday I needed
to test the Waste Barrel after it Cured. Once I’d put a couple of gallons
of water in the Barrel I was very
disappointed to find a leak. That’s not something you want to be leaving a
trail of. I’ll make up another batch of the J-B Weld
tomorrow to make certain the leak is gone but this time I can keep the Vinyl Gloves on while applying it.
Shortly after 4:00 while Kathy
was making a Salad I grilled a couple
of All-Beef Hotdogs for supper. The Temperatures are slowly dropping but
nothing compared to what the kids are getting back in Ontario. Thanks for following along, feel free to

It’s about time.

You have ever bought an Anniversary present at an
auto parts store.
I think you'd of been better off using GE silicone to seal that as it's hard to get anything to stick to the barrel plastic. The silicone is more plyable and will seal it better. I used it as you are doing using those flanges and it worked. I think if you get the epoxy to work, it will eventually fail on you.

Sounds like a perfect day ... except for the leak part!! Hope you get it repaired.
