Very warm overnight. As a matter of fact I got up at 2 am, it was 71 f outside 80F inside, so I opened our bedroom window and turned on our fantastic fan, Now a nice breeze coming across our bed to cool, things down.
Up and at it and now at 5 am 73f outside, gonna be a hot day, Our last one for this year according to the weather gods.
After some computing and coffees got a nice walkabout around this peaceful campground,
 |
Only 4 Geese here this morning by the pond ,
I am sure they will soon be heading south |
About 9am I took a nice country drive and stopped by the reserve, to top up our car with gas, and our extra gas can we carry. But before I left I secured our awning. Winds today supposed to have gusts to 37 mph. Even secred our awning may not survive.
 |
What a great deal only$110.1 a litre best price we have
seen this year |
Now back home to whip a tasty lunch, more soup of course. Then because it was such a nice day I decided a good time to vacuum our car, it has been a few months and was in dire need of a good cleanup. Wanted to get it done before the predicted rain today.

| no rain yet but did get the car vacxuumed |
Now because it was suppose to rain this afternoon I figured now I could hook up the remote for our new inverter I installed yesterday., mostly an inside job. Nice easy inside job maybe? Ok not so easy I have to drill a hole through the floor but to get there I have to drill through 2 heavy metal plates. I forgot about this, last time was 12 years ago. After over an hour and many drill bits I finally got a big enough hole for the wire. And finally hooked up our remote switch for the inverter. In our bedroom right beside our bed . so we can shut it off at night the we go to sleep. For those who do not know what an inverter does it converts our 12 volt battery power to 110 volts so that we can watch tv, charge our laptops and cell phones when are not hook-up to electricity on a campground. Something we do quite often. And we do have solar , 2 panels to charge our batteries, so we are always connected even when the campground has power outages.

This after noon we only got a few raishowers, much less than predicted. So when I was all done this install we relaxed outside enjoying the now sunny afternoon. Quite windy though, sure glad we secured our awning.
 |
| quite warm with a refreshing wind was nice |
 |
| the wind was blowing fiercely blowing the leaves off the trees, too early |
 |
| a very nice day afterall |
A nice happy hour , just the 2 of us and soon time for supper I whipped up a salad and grilled a couple of Turkey garlic sausage we enjoy.
 |
this sausage are so very tasty,
we love them |
 |
now we got to enjoy this meal, and can
relax outside for a while |
Supper done, dishes done and back outside finish this posting and read a bit more. Finished my last book and will soon begin a new one. Still a nice night at 8 Pm but if I need to put on warmer clothes other my shorts I will be heading inside for the night.
Got things done and enjoyed our last hot day that we will not see for a while.
Hope you enjoyed a good day as well and thanks for tagging along.

Where have we been this summer?
The inverter remote will be very handy. Mine has a light to remind me that it is turned on. I see yours does as well.
ReplyDeleteWith the leaves dropping, even with the winds help.....time to start thinking seriously about heading south!
We like the remote, our other inverter had one as well but no light.
DeleteWe are ready to head south. only 26 more days then we are putter here.
Maybe that wind will blow some Autumn your way. You have a newer inverter, I opened my old one up and soldered a couple wires to the on/off for my remote control :) a PIA,but cheap and it works.
ReplyDeleteThen wind sure did blow the first day of fall here, much cooler starting tomorrow, just like that.
DeleteHey nothing wrong with cheap as long as it works.
Glad you are all set for when you head south.
ReplyDeleteBe Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
We all ready to go just counting the days now.
DeleteA remote for your inverter ... I'm guessing that's a boon docking thing. I always have to leave mine on due to the fridge. So you're a short-timer now. Hope to see you down the road ... maybe in Q.
ReplyDeleteWe don't need our inverter on all the time especially overnight when we are boon docking we have a propane fridge. Yes in a short time, (26 days) we be back on the road making our way eventually to the southwest.
DeleteNice to get the inverter remote hooked up. What's a few holes here and there? Necessary evil. :)
ReplyDeleteWinds like that are never fun. Ours were 90 km/55 mph and although no trees near us to be concerned about, the car shelter was sure bouncing!
It was nice to get the this remote installed, and just had to drill a small hole to hook up the wire to it.
DeleteWe were protected from the wind pretty good and no trees right close to us either.
Hate the winds. Right now we're watching the rain because we're trying to be sure outside cushions aren't soaked just before we leave. Last thing we want is to store wet cushions over the winter. Take care and be safe.
ReplyDeleteThe winds sure v=can be brutal. Hopefully your cushions don't get wet and you will soon be back on the road again. Travel safe.
DeleteGood thing you brought your awning in for sure! What winds! Dinner looks wonderful as always!
ReplyDeleteYes it sure was , we always check on the winds and direction just to be safe.
DeleteDinner was very tasty.
