| sunrise this morning before I headed out |
Wow slept pretty well right through the night and woke up raring to go at 4:30. hmm, well I have some computing to do and a pot of coffee to make. Now as the sun was rising at 7 am I whipped into Blythe California for some needed supplies. Nice that the grocery stores open at 5am (6am arizona time. ) Back home by 9am to enjoy the rest of this sunny day.

| this be our new inverter |
I had picked up a couple of 20 amp mini fuses on the way, because the other were all blowing when I plugged in our 100 amp inverter in the car. So today a test. New fuse and plugged in our Brake Buddy. No problem. So now we know the inverter is defective. We use it all the time here in the desert when in the car charging our phone, I-pad and even our computers. So after a light lunch I went back to town, traffic was not too bad, better than yesterday. Over to Rv lifestyles to see if they have one. Not what I wanted she sent me to Love's truck stop down the street. They had a nice 175 watt one there for 40 bucks, 3 outlets plus 2 usb outlets, I plugged it and and works wonderfully. We back in business again yahoo!

heading down Kuehn street the local traffic
lots of these atv's |
Now enjoy the warm afternoon sun reading our page turners for a while . Then I took our Roadmaster tow bar off to take to the service truck to be serviced and checked out. We both had long hot showers and me a shave. will go to the dump station early in the morning to dump our sewage and top up our fresh water tank before it gets too busy. And if I am done in good time will get our tow bar serviced, if not another day.

Where have we been this Winter?
I just took my groud turkey out of the freezer to make meatloaf tomorrow. Maybe I will try making on the grill like you did.
ReplyDeleteIt was tasty on the grill we always enjoy a good meatloaf.
DeleteLooks busy in town, don't miss that traffic! We do however miss all our friends!
ReplyDeleteNot as busy as we have seen it, only a some traffic for a block or 2 the desert and our friends is always nice though.
DeleteHa!!! Meatloaf ... I love it!! I'm making one today. Think I'll try the barbecue.
ReplyDeleteThere ya go nothing quite like a tasty meatloaf. Enjoy.
DeleteOh my goodness that meatloaf looks awesome! Looks like another great day in the desert for you all. Love the sunset pics!
ReplyDeleteThe meatloaf was excellent thanks. It was a decent day and more wonderful skies off and on.
DeleteWe must have passed you going east while we were on our way west to Blythe this morning...wave...:)
ReplyDeleteWe had some nice sun this afternoon but once the clouds took over a little chilly but still a nice Happy Hour.
You probably did pass me on you way west.
DeleteWe did get some nice sunshine but chilly when the clouds arrived.
We too make turkey meatloaf and cook it on the grill. It just gives it a wonderful flavour. I sometimes put a hard boiled egg in the middle just to give it a funky look when you cut it. Tasty too.
ReplyDeleteHopefully you manage to get everything accomplished in one day. Water, dump, tow bar service. Instead of having to do it on separate days.
Keep on enjoying those happy hours.
I have done the meatloaf like that too, it does make it kind of funky.
DeleteGot everything done this morning by 9:15 now we can enjoy the rest of day doing whatever.
Looks like you had about the same luck with the eclipse we did. The moon just faded away above the clouds. Great looking dinner!
ReplyDeleteYes it was nit great for viewing, but needed up a pretty bright night after all.
DeleteLoved the meatloaf, very tasty.
It was another great day, we just learn to adjust schedules. We need to start H.H. sooner!
ReplyDeleteMeat loaf does look good, we've never bought ground turkey but it would be a nice change.
The ground turkey has been our favourite for years and really enjoy it, my system digests it beef than beef. Suzie like it too.
DeleteWe usually like to start HH at 3 pm even at home, thereby 4:30 we can go home and start dinner.
