We
managed to get to bed early last night and slept so soundly that when
I looked at my watch at 6:00 this morning I thought just a few more
minutes. Since I have been feeling tired right after supper because
I’m waking early. With this being Sunday a day of rest I didn’t
think it would hurt. I wasn’t saying the same thing when I woke
just after 8:00.
There
was a definite improvement in the temperature because we didn’t
have to turn on our Heater. I managed to get things ready for
breakfast and started doing my morning reading before Kathy joined me
downstairs. Luckily the Sun was doing its job of charging our
Batteries because the Wind was not helping much.
After
double checking The Weather Network
as well as our Amazon orders.
Even though it seems that we have lost our warmer temperatures for a
few days it looks like we’ll be getting additional Rain
starting tomorrow afternoon. That will be the perfect time to go into
Quartzsite
to get our Amazon orders
at Quiet Times where we have our
packages sent.
I
had planned on just having Soup for lunch but Kathy knew that
I would be working this afternoon so she added a Sandwich and
Yogurt Cup to go along with it.
Looking
outside while we ate we watched the Sun disappeared behind
the Clouds and Ken’s Flags started waving more
steadily.
It
is amazing how handy checking our Blog can be. It tells us
when we go places or do chores and I was surprised to find that it
has been Sixteen Days since the last time I emptied our Waste
Tanks. If you just gasped at the length of time it had been so
did we. When other chores or errands need to be done that gets put
aside.
Luckily
we have not had a lot of Hot Days that in this area would have
cause a lot of evaporation in the Tanks. We are also lucky
that I no longer use a Blue Boy but a Waste Barrel in
the bed of the Truck. Those Two Facts meant that I was
able to back flush the Black Tank using the contents of the
Grey Water Tanks to do it. By the time I finished my chore I
had disposed of Two Barrels of Waste adding up to over a
Hundred Gallons. We’ll be paying more attention to that in
the future.
Once
I was cleaned up Kathy had me grilling a Pork Roast on our
Weber Q. After warming it up I was able to bring the Flame
nice and Low. Putting the Grill Mat down I simply
closed the cover.
Kathy
went for another walk around a small section of the LTVA
just north of where we are parked. She does a faster pace
then my Knees will take in an effort to get her Heart-Rate
up. She was only gone for Fifteen Minutes and when she got
back we sat outside for a while for her to relax.
Once
the Roast had been cooking for Forty-Five Minutes I
turned it over. Ken came over to talk for a bit. We learned more
things that he has done just like he learned about us.
After
another Thirty Minutes I used the Temperature Probe to
verify that the Roast was perfectly cooked. Kathy had made a
Salad as our side. Everything was delicious and there’s more
for another meal.
After
doing the dishes we sat back to watch the movie “Road To
Perdition” starring Tom Hanks as a Depression Era
Gangster. He would have been the person you didn’t want to
cross back then. Very Convincing as he is in all his movies.
We both gave it Two Thumbs Up.
With
a few more days of changing weather we’ll try to get out exploring
as well as getting a few things around here accomplished. Thank
you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be
Safe and Enjoy!
It’s
about time.
