Sat. May 14th Cool again

Join us as we travel North America in our 

Holiday Rambler Vacationer, since August 2006

       After friday was so hot and humid it was a shock today to be overcast, cool, damp and drizzly. Morning coffees, computing and walkabouts between rain drops. We puttered around with a few things, tidied up inside and sorted thru our reading box getting rid of old magazines etc..

       Mike and Trish are here for the summer now and they had bought a new gas BBQ, to keep here. So while Trish came to visit Suzie with her mini dog Maggie, I went for some male bonding with Mike to see if we could assemble the big box full of parts to the point where we could fire it up without having it explode.

        We thought we were following the instructions pretty good until page 10,(installing the side burner). It turns out the side supports went on backwards so we completely dissembled back to page two and started over again but with my electric screw diver this time. Much better now all done and working, time to celebrate with a beverage.

       Then we sat outside a bit more for happy hour under the awning and out of the drizzle until it was time to start supper and go inside to take off the chill. On the menu tonight is a tasty Garlic Shrimp pasta with a salad and fresh french bread.

       The weather forecast for the next 4-5 days appears to be around the same with anywhere from 10 to 60 percent chance of sunshine, so maybe get some computing and reading done, even some time in the pool and hot tub after the weekend crowds leave.
