Even with the best laid plans you can’t always win.
Getting out of bed by 7:30 it didn’t take me long to see the Sun was
already shining on the Picnic Table. When I checked The Weather Network the
Humidex was already at 97 F (36 C) and climbing. That’s when I
finished getting things ready for breakfast. As if sensing what I was doing
that was when Kathy came downstairs to start her day.
We brought our Coffee/Tea over to the Computers
in order to get all our reading completed. I even managed to send off a message
to our friends Wayne and Sue in Washington State. When we set up camp in Quartzsite
they have been our neighbours for the last two winters and we are looking
forward to seeing them again this fall.
By 11:00 we had all our indoor chores completed but
the outdoor Humidex had already reached 106 F (41 C) with
no breeze. “You know it’s hot out when there are very few Golfers on the
Links.”
For lunch Kathy made a wonderful Caesars Salad
along with Chicken Strips and Mandarin Orange Fruit Cups for
dessert.
For the last two years we have been having issues
with our Rand
McNally GPSs. We have Lifetime Updates on both but each
time that they have been updated as soon as they are turned on a message
appears saying that it’s been over a year since their last update. Thinking
that was just a Message Error we headed out on the road only to find out
that the GPSs were far from accurate.
Since our internet we use at the Park is
running so well and the Heat was keeping us captives inside I thought
that I would try updating them again. Since I’ve downloaded the Rand McNally
Docking Program it’s quite simple to accomplish this task and I’d completed
today’s update on both our units in about Fifteen Minutes. When I turned
them on afterwards the same message appeared and their Techs are off for
the Long Weekend. Guess I’ll be calling them on Tuesday to get this
fixed once and for all.
Kathy suggested another Matinee Movie so we
watched “Home Front” which is about a retired DEA agent that is
trying to raise his daughter after his wife passes. The problem is when his
past comes back to haunt him. Lots of action that will keep you on the edge of
your seat.
For supper it didn’t take long to grill a couple of All-Beef
Hotdogs on the Weber while Kathy served up some Coleslaw and Potato
Salad as sides.
Once we finished cleaning the Dishes we
needed to get out. Since it was already 7:00 we headed over to our
daughter-in-law Jen’s house in Essex. She had the boys out in the pool
earlier this afternoon and was more then happy to sit inside to visit. She’s
doing well and we’ll be back to visit a few more times before the kids go back
to school.
Tomorrow is supposed to be warmer than today. Wonder
what we’ll be up to? Thank you for following along and feel free to leave a
comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

I understand the heat keeping you indoors. I have to let the dog out and that is tough enough, he isn't crazy about going out there either but well... But he sure does it quickly as the stones are very hot.
ReplyDelete106!!! Woohoo ... l guess I can't complain about it being 102 here!!
ReplyDeleteAnother great day. Bet you'll be happy when the heat is gone, sounds miserable. Nice that you got to visit with your daughter and grandkids!
