More rain again last night and this morning for a while. So no early morning walkabout in the rain. But we had a plan our last day here, was to laundry.
 |
| love this site but has not dried out in 3 weeks |
So Suzie sorted the laundry all including our sheets. I went to the laundry in to to get that done. only 2 machines here in the park and we needed more. Into town to get that done and let the machines do their magic. I can read in the car and when I thought it should be done I checked and hmm. The power was out for 20 minutes so it was delayed. Finally back home shortly after noon for a late lunch.
Next was on our list was to see if we could get our coach off this site. Too much rain and our rear tires were in deep mud. Talked to the friendly maintenance guys here John and Mark. They agreed to bring over some boards for us to pull out on.
 |
| with this mud I know from experience that we will be stuck |
I put more blocks under our jacks and raised the coach enough to put these boards under our rear tires.
 |
| this should do the trick and it did |
I pulled the coach out no problem now, Suzie taking our blocks out from under the jacks and we moved to another much drier site. We are leaving tomorrow morning. Nice to get this done today and now Suzie can have a good nights sleep. She has been worried about this for a while now.
 |
| digging our levelling blocks out of the mud |
 |
John and Mark put these boards down and I drove right out
thanks so much guys |
Only moved a few hundred feet to a much drier site, for the night, No more mud. We do like our site but with 3 weeks of rain it did not dry up like it usually does. And we have used this site fo 13 years now and never been this wet.
 |
| we were there beside the white trailer |
 |
| at least we are out of the mud a nice site |
We moved stuff over and got all set up, does not take long. Paul stopped by and helped us drag a few things over, he went for walk and came back to join us for Happy Hour.
 |
chatted with Paul for a while then
soon time for us to whip up supper |
 |
| here we are |
When I went to town today I picked up a couple of these breaded pork cutlets for supper tonight . We do enjoy these and usually make our own, But for a good price a quick easy tasty meal. I call it pork schnitzel.
Quickly fried in our pan with onions and mushrooms.
 |
| fried up nicely quick and easy |
 |
| added some mozzarella cheese to melt over it |
Then some Salsa to top it off and go with out salad.
 |
| this was very tasty and so tender |
Dishes done now back outside on our patio, to enjoy more of this wonderful weather. Still 65 F (18C) at 7:45pm . Sure is not hard to take at all we are liking this much nicer weather. No rain yet but should be overnight, maybe.
Heading out in the morning for some more family fun for a few days.
Want to thank y'all for dropping on by and hope you enjoyed a nice spring day again as well.

Where have we been this Summer ?
Nice that you were able to move to a dryer site. Not Fun when an RV gets stuck,
ReplyDeleteBe Safe and Enjoy your family fun.
It's about time.
It worked out perfectly now we will have no problems in the morning.
DeleteAlways enjoy the family times.
Well aren’t you smart!! I wouldn’t have thought to use the jacks to lift it up and put down boards. I’m going to remember that one!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOver the years we have used a few tricks when things like this happen, works pretty slick. I nice tip that works for motorhomes with jacks.
DeleteYou were really sitting in the mud!! Glad you got out before having to break camp!!! It’s also nice to have helpful folks around!!!
ReplyDeleteYes we were very lucky. Nice that the staff in this park is so friendly and helpful. Easy move and ready to go in the morning.
DeleteThe blanks work even better than the tractor did! Dinner looks great - Safe travels in the morning!
ReplyDeleteYes they did , had to this at the farm back in 2007and worked pretty slick.Diunner was yummy thanks.
DeleteI'm like Suzie. I worry and lose sleep over things like this. So glad you are in a better space and she can relax.
ReplyDeleteSusie does worry about things like that, I knew we would get out. She can relax tonight and we will head out in the morning.
DeleteI hope it drys out soon. That mud was terrible, nice to have help getting out. Have a safe drive to the family tomorrow
ReplyDeleteThanks JO.
DeleteIt should vibe drying out soon and no mu=ore mud whorl be nice.
I'm with Suzie, I would be worrying about it all night as well. Good job on getting it out ahead of time. It is no fun having to be towed out. It has happened to us twice, once in Mexico and the other was a few years ago when we were flooded. Safe travels today.
ReplyDeleteThanks Contessa.
DeleteGetting stuck is no fun, this is the 5th time for us..
It seems like it has been wet everywhere this year! We finally have some dry weather after 10 day so rain and snow, it is only 3 days but we will take it!
ReplyDeleteYes it has been wet pretty well everywhere , soon some nice warm sunny weather.
DeleteGood plan to move. We know from experience how wet and muddy it can be there. the jacks work on fifth wheels too. Bill lifts ours every spring to put boards under the tires after we are situated. First one side, then the next, works like a charm.
ReplyDeleteSafe travels for the short distance today.
It worked out well, with the boards . Some sites can get muddy especially with all the rain we have had, First time in 14 years we have had a issue here. but the rain has been relentless, Thanks Patsy we have about a 4 hour drive, but will be a fun weekend.
DeleteWow that was muddy glad you got moved with no issues! A nice day getting things done! Dinner looks awesome!! Travel safely today!
ReplyDeleteIt has been muddy with all this rain and was nice to get that taken care of yesterday. Dinner was very tasty thanks.
DeleteMud (or snow) these RVs sure get stuck easily! :cO
ReplyDeleteYou are right mud or snow is not a friend to these rigs.
DeleteSafe driving tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteThanks DStew it was a very good drive.
