Today gonna be another wonderful day. Very warm overnight windows open and we had a wonderful sleep.
First walkabout at 7 am up by the pond watching the Canada Geese family fishing in the pond. Mom and Pop Geese doing the heads down this morning showing the Kids how to do it. Soon they will be teaching them to fly and they be gone.

Now if you read yesterday's posting you will see than the plug on our surge protecter was fried. Not good. so we hooked up to power without out it for now.

| both connectors no good now |
Both the male plug on our surge protector was toast as well as female plug on our 25 foo 30 amp cord. So about 9 am I went down to talk to Rob, (the vice president of this park). Now he is very mechanically inclined and has all the tools to fix things. He said heck it is no good like this let's take a look. Well I followed him around, checking his tool boxes looking for "security" Torx wrenches needed to take this thing apart. We found them and he set to work taking it apart. Success! He gave me some parts to clean up and I cut off the Male end of our 30 amp cord that was good.

Like he said it's broken and expensive to replace, can;t hurt it now. So with all this in place and all the proper tools in no time it was all put back together, just like new ! I hooked it up and works perfectly. Sure beats buying a new surge protector for over $300.00 here in Canada. Now how is that for taking care of your members here in this park, what amazing customer service ! Now I did purchase a new 25 foot 30 amp cable for $45.00 right here, that I needed anyway. much less than buying new ends for the now shorter cable. Thanks Rob for your amazing help much more than I expected.

After a light lunch headed into Arkona to check out the grocery store and chatted with a friend we have no seen since last year. Suzie sent me a text and wanted me home to roll up our awning. So quickly home that was done and the clouds mostly moved on by. A few rain sprinkles a couple of times but the storm mostly went by just north of us.

Skies cleared again, so chairs back out and enjoyed some nice reading out side. Chat with a few people that walked by (that Happens when we sit outside).
Then Suzie noticed that Gerry was home and wanted to visit Tucker. After 3 months with them and Tucker in the southwest she wanted a Tucker fix, ok we chatted with Gerry as well. Melinda still working too hard.
