Having
left the Blue Flame Heater on the lowest heat setting all
night it was still cool enough this morning that I immediately put my
Housecoat on to stop myself from shaking uncontrollably. Going
downstairs and approaching the Heater I was surprised to see
that the Burner was lit even at that low of a setting in an
attempt to keep the room moderately warm. As soon as I checked The
Weather Network it was understandable. The outside
temperature was 39 F (4 C) feeling like 32 F (0
C).
With
the Sun shining brightly by the time Kathy joined me
downstairs it was no surprise to see the temperature on the rise.
Looking outside while we had breakfast we watched residents walking
around the Park wearing Toques,
Gloves and Coats in order to keep warm. Reading other
Fulltime RV Blogs from others nearby it was not a shock to see
we are all experiencing the same kind of weather. It made me smile to
see the temperature in Quartzsite
was 90 F (32 C) at 7:00 Arizona Time.
Our
daughter Karen called wanting to make a date to celebrate Kathy’s
Birthday next week. Rather then having them travel half way
across the city Kathy opted to meet them at the Michigan
Diner on Manning Road
after Karen gets home from work.
By
11:00 our Charge Controller and Battery Capacity Meter
were both showing our Batteries as fully charged. After doing
our normal inside chores I needed to do a quick check of which
Medications and Vitamins will be needed for when I do
the Pill Doucettes in another Ten Days.
Kathy
was busy going through the latest batch of Mail we collected
just the other day so I started putting lunch together. It was simple
enough just warming some Chicken Tenders in the Microwave
and mixing up a Kale Salad.
After
cleaning up the Dishes we worked together to wrap a Special
Gift that I’m certain would be well appreciated at this time.
Looking outside the sky was completely filled with Clouds.
Rechecking the forecast it had completely changed since this morning.
The outside temperature was at its high of 52 F (11 C)
for the day but we can expect up to an Inch of Mixed Precipitation
overnight. That took away any ambition we might have had of working
outside.
We
looked at a number of things On-Line until we had a lite
supper after 6:30. Kathy made some Pasta Shells with Cheese
and we topped that off with a Fruit Cup for dessert.
The
Rain started coming down quite steady by 7:00 so we decided to
watch the movie “Arrival” starring Amy Adams, Jeremy
Renner and Forest Whitaker. We’re not into SiFis but this
one was moderate and gave us lots to think about.
Finally
back on the Computer
with a Coffee/Tea
to warm us
up
I noticed the temperature in Quartzsite
was only
97 F
(36
C).
Like here no happy medium. Thank
you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be
Safe and Enjoy!
It’s
about time.

Such a mixed bag of weather again. It was 95 here today and some really nasty gusts of wind.
ReplyDeleteSnow here so you fared better than us with your 52F. We didn't go above 40F. At least the wind died around supper time, no more 39 mph winds we hope!
ReplyDeleteThe sun will come out again ..... sometime!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am sorry you are experiencing such cold temperatures and like you mention there does not seem to be a happy medium in Canada or the United States.
ReplyDeleteHad to admit I had no idea what a Toques was so had to Google it.
