Overcast but still very warm, and got a few things done today to.

Where are we today ?

Quartzsite Arizona

      Today is supposed to be the warmest day of the week as long as the cloud cover goes away. Not great for charging our solar. Did not get a full charge all day even with our inverter shut off and nothing turned on. Got close today 13.8 but need 14.01 for a full charge. 

mostly cloudy all day

        While I was in town for some parts Suzie saw an ultra light over head the 2 pics below she took with her I-phone.

             With all our electronic devices, 2 computers, I-phone, I pad, etc we have a back up that works. yes we could run our genny but don't like to.
            When I go to town my computer is plugged into the small 300 watt inverter we have in the car. Our first one we got about 20 years ago, still works like a charm.  When I come home my Mac is charged , then Suzie charges her computer, then the I-phone and i-pad in the car works pretty slick.

our 300 watt inverter for the car

       I had picked up a new connector for our towed and got it wired in and works better, but still having an issue with the lights in the car. So checking, testing all the connections and bulbs I have narrowed it down to a problem in our coach.

thats done but still have a problem

           4 hours checking things out getting too hot so gonna call it a day and think about it some more.
          Time to relax a bit and take my mind off it, get some reading done. Tomorrow is another day. Mostly overcast, when the clouds are gone the sun is blutal,  clouds cover it gets chilly, that's the desert that we love.

no awning today

       As the sun sets in the west we cooking supper, 1/2 a chicken on our Weber Q 100 and a salad tonight.

you guessed it we love chicken

        Have a few neighbors around with lotsa solar panels and batteries, they have Christmas lights all lit up. Looks so nice here in the desert darkness. So peaceful too.

they are a long way away

      That was it for a productive day for us, putter around enjoying this great weather, cold weather coming going to be in the 60's f but thats ok as long as the sun is shining it's still very warm.

       Glad that you took the time to stop by here at "desert dirt"  sure is wonderful.
