Not a lot of rain overnight, just enough to keep the dust down, no puddles to be found this morning. We both had a great sleep and as the sun was rising I headed out on a beautiful morning and got a nice 2 mile walk in. What great way to start the day. |
| another great desert sunrise |
 |
| Me and my shadow out for a nice walkabout |
After lunch puttered around for a while, Chatted with Ken and Shirley for a bit, Ken and Shirley wished we could stay longer. And they got their wish. Checked our tire pressures and oil, Then was going to secure our solar panel for travel and enjoyed reading in the warm afternoon sun at 68F, Yup this is pretty decent winter weather.
BUT !! just before I stored our solar panel Suzie got me to check the rattle we have heard the last few days in the wind under our coach. Crawled around under our coach AND a large heat shield between our exhaust pipe and propane tank and spare tire noticed the weld securing it had broken. Ah ha found the problem. Thinking about this for a bit and decided to go back to RV lifestyle styles again to see if they can weld this and we can give them some more money. Dennis said their welder is pretty busy this week maybe Friday, so he checked , I can squeeze you in Thursday morning at 10 AM. Perfect, so looks like we will be here for a few more days. No problem we like it here and enjoy the desert, our permit is good until Feb 11th.

Where have we been this Winter?
Wow, great that your plans remain flexible,you certainly do not want to lose that heat shield, and you have a comfortable place to stay. The desert is looking green, any early flowers coming out?
ReplyDeleteWe like to remain flexible with this lifestyle sure helps to keep it stress free. Very comfortable here but we have that hitch itch sitting in one place too long, we will be outta here soon, have not noticed any desert flowers yet but I will be taking a closer look.
DeleteSure glad Susie reminded you to check that out.
ReplyDeleteYes I am too, she could hear it much better than me.
DeleteX2--Suzie is on her toes! Don't even want to think about other alternatives.
ReplyDeleteYup she is my honey, the 2 of us make a good team.
DeleteGood to find that heat shield before you were traveling and it came off and did some damage maybe. And it's always good to find stuff while parked instead of on the road. You did good and Suzy too.
ReplyDeleteYes Bob glad I found the source of the noise and it could be the source of the vibration we have on the road, it is large heat shield about 6 inches by 5 feet, sure would have made a mess of our towed car if it came off.
DeletePerhaps Suzie's suggestion has discovered the root of the noise she has been hearing for a while and couldn't never figure out. That Jell-o needed to jiggle! You are happy there so what's another few days?
ReplyDeleteShirley's treats look good, that cauliflower crust pizza especially. :)
Glad we discovered the source of that noise she could hear, We like to be flexible , The treats were very tasty the pizza crust was actually spaghetti squash and wonderful similar to the cauliflower crust.
DeleteWe did get our wish, but didn't want to wish that on you :) Thanks for trying to help with the thermostat appreciate much! Luckily we're not in Nevada or we'd have to buy something to get us through. I have to say your hamburgers grilling smelled so good last night! I told Ken this am we're going to have to get some beef, I'm feeling a need to have a burger coming on thanks to you :)! Love Happy Hour with everyone! Thank you for the compliments on my not so conventional snacks...hahah
ReplyDeleteNo problem we can delay our departure hanging out with good friends. Hope you can get a new thermostat soon. The burgers were very tasty thanks and really enjoyed you wonderful healthy snacks.
DeleteFlexibility is the key to an uncomplicated life. Hope the repair is a simple one.
ReplyDeleteYes we are very flexible in our lifestyle, pretty stress free. The fix is an easy one for a welder.
DeleteWe are all happy the jello jiggled and you and Suzie will be staying for a couple more days.
ReplyDeleteThe snacks Shirley gifted us with were delicious.
The rain certainly does bring a beautiful green to the desert.
Thanks as much as we want to get going, it is a wonderful area to hang out with good friends Yes her snacks were very tasty. And nice to see the desert coming back to life.
DeleteGood catch before you got on the road. Lucky for you and Suzie you are in a nice spot and enjoy the company. Soon you'll be wheels rolling and heading out. The snacks looked and sounded wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWe are in a wonderful spot that we always enjoy. We will be rolling down the road again in a few days
DeleteThese snacks were excellent and very healthy as well.
Into every RV Life some rattles must fall. :cD
ReplyDeleteSo true not a big deal though we just take it all in stride, one day at a time.
DeleteSquash pizza??????
ReplyDeleteYes make the crust with spaghetti squash it is excellent.
DeleteWhat a fabulous sunset and you got great shots. Too bad about the RV repairs but better now than later somewhere down the road. Hopefully you share those recipes with your favorite readers:)
ReplyDeleteThanks Contessa int has be been fun times here, the repairs happen as you well know and life carries on, Nice to get the repairs taken care of and then move n down the road again.
