One Wet Dog!
Max, Herb and I started out the day with a walk. It wan't supposed to rain until later in the day but the weather person wasn't right. It started to rain, slowly at first, but then it picked up. Needless to say, we got wet. But it felt good! Poured a glass of wine and watched it rain.
It's really raining out!
The last couple of days have been warm again. I think Miami even broke a record for highest temp yesterday. With the rain it's cooled off and we can open the windows again. Still humid though. It's supposed to be cool all week. Low 70's then warming to the upper 70's by Wednesday.
We went out for dinner tonite for fish (it's Friday ya know!). I had the best fish sandwich ever. It was mahi mahi and very delish. Herb had a fish dinner, he think's it was the same fish, and his was just as good. Will have to go back to Hobo's before we leave.
Another repair this week. We tried using the washer/drier for the first time. There was no problem with the washer part but when the machine switched to drying, water was leaking all over in the garage (the underneath storage area). Herb did some searching on the internet and found the manual for the machine so then he could get it apart. Found out that one of the hoses was loose. Pushed it back on and ta da, fixed. Let's hope we're coming to the end of this.
Broken but now fixed washer/drier.
This place is starting to grow on me. I'm liking it a little better than when we got here. After my last post my friend Karen said I should just enjoy the fact that we were here and enjoy the weather. Then the next day I read the daily passage from The Book of Awakening. It has a reading for every day. The passage for that day was about greed, but not for money. It talked about the greed of time. About wanting to be in two places at once, not happy with where you are and what you are doing now. It was like whoa! What, a coincedence? I think not. So I've taken both of these to heart. Thanks Karen. You were right. It has really made a difference.
Last night, cause there was nothing on TV so we went to the Red Box and rented "How to train your dragon". If you get a chance rent it. It was very cute. Only $1 from a Red Box.
A coach pulled in the other day like ours. The owners came over yesterday to talk to us. They just bought it in December, like us. Theirs is a 1995 an 30 feet long. Ours is a 1997 and 40 feet long. They bought it from the original owners and said they were meticulous. We told them about the Safari chat group incase they have any problems. They went to Key West today so I hope to talk more with them tomorrow. They're right across the street from us. Hoping they will help to talk Herb into going as he doesn't want to go.
Oh so glad you got the washer/dryer fixed. Ours is different and is vented to the outside, not the water system drying type. We mostly just wash the clothes, then hang them on hangers to dry. I keep a portable folding clothes rack in the closet that can fit standing up in the bathtub/shower area or set outside with items draped over it to dry too. I do use the dryer part to fluff up the almost dry towels, with a few dryer sheets to boot.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are adjusting to the campground. In all our years of camping, only once did we find a site sooo distasteful that we had to move. (Kleinke park on the bay) The neighbor's raspy voice as she got drunker and drunker was too hard to ignore, then her son joined her with the SAME raspy loud voice. They just never shut up! It was all day and all night long! The next morning we asked the host if we could move, and we ended up with the recently vacated BEST site in the whole park! hahahahaha
But that is the only time we ever asked to move because we were about ready to say forget it and just leave and go home. Sigh.
