A bit warmer, sunny day, laundry done and ready to hit the road again.

Where are we today ?
Clic a pic to enlarge it
      It was bit warmer last night 32 F outside at 5 am, cozy inside great for sleeping 54F  this morning just fired up our blue flame heater and in no time a comfortable 72 F inside.
     Did get a few nice walkabouts in the warm morning sunshine. Really love this place so comfortable here and the weather amazing.
another nice sunrise to start our day
          Puttered around a bit and when Suzie had the laundry sorted I headed to the nice laundry they have here, 5 washers and 2 dryers. But they have a couple of clothes lines and clothes pins= perfect!
garden by the laundry
nice clean laundry here
only 2 dryers but..
     We did 3 loads, one for the sheets. Nothing like hanging your sheets on a clothes line to dry in the wind, They smell so fresh.  32 minutes for the clothes in the dryers cost a buck and the sheets on the line, done about the same time, With a nice breeze, sunshine and dry air here does not take long
nice clothes lines and pins here
sheets dry in no time
       While this was happening I finished a Patterson book and dived into a J.A. Dance that I enjoy.
another page turner
      When the dryers were done I folded the clothes and home by 11 am so we could enjoy another light tasty lunch. Then back to grab the sheets.
      That was done we can enjoy sitting outside enjoying our e-readers, And between chapters Suzie washed the floors and I check our tires, put our Weber Q away for travelling in the morning.
really love the views here
the quiet places and friendly people
a perfect day we enjoyed
          For supper tonight  we had a 1.5 lb pork loin roast to do and choose to do it in our pressure cooker for a change, Added a sweet potato, mushrooms, onions, celery, carrots and in 25 minutes we had a perfect meal so moist and tender.  Made a bit of gravy and we had a feast of course more leftovers , but that was planned. Added some apple sauce just because apple sauce just goes with roast pork at least in my books.
love this pressure cooker, on the stove no need for electricity
sure does a wonderful job
    I was so into watching for the sunset I did not take any pictures of tonights supper, But no big deal you have seen so many meals what's the big deal anyway?
sunset shining on the hills behind us
looking the other way was nice too
the end of another amazing desert day
         The day just flew on by got a few things done, enjoyed this wonderful weather and ready to hit the road in the morning . Slowly making our way east and north back to Ontario, Travel a bit , rest a bit, ,maybe  explore a bit and soon we be back home, hopefully warmer that it is right now.
      Thanks again for dropping by to check us out. And hope you enjoyed your day as well.

  2. That is a really nice campground. I love the way the mountains change with the flow of the sun all day but best of all when the sun starts to set.

    Safe travels

  7. No dryers when I was a kid so clothes always dried on a line and I always preferred them that way.

  9. Crazy how the weather has been so cool where it is supposed to be much warmer. Like everyone else I love sleeping in sheets that have been line dried. Here on the Isla they guy at the lavenderia does this so we are spoiled for the 4/5 months that we are here.

  11. The Tombstone Territory RV Park also had cloth lines to use if you wanted, but the dryers were very cheap, I think about 75 cents per load all dry. They also provided an ironing board with steam iron complimentary. I figured that you would also use a pressure cooker. The best invention of all time. That book you read: 'A Last Goodbye" has a picture of a long haired Dachshund on it. Is the story about a dog? I'll be intrigued to download it.

  13. Looking like the weather is great there. Bet you're sorry to leave. Can't believe it's time to start heading home already.

    Been a wonderful winter this year in the southwest. Little warm at times, but warm is better than cold.

    Safe travels today wherever you're heading.

  14. Wonderful nice weather and clear skies. Why is such a great place. Winter is over here on the East Coast for now. No snow, just a bit under the freezing mark at night but mild and often sunny during the days.
