No Internet No TV

 

Tuesday morning I woke up and notice that my head was stopped up again! I guess it is the humidity here or something. Sherri and I both have been having sinus problems for some time now. Sherri had to go to the doctor in Lafayette for a shot to get rid of hers but we still have the same problem as then. Maybe we will just have to wait out the pollen count?

Today we had planned on moving some more stuff in the barn. I guess it must be the retirement mode we are in but it seems less important now to get all of that done. The fact that the temps here have been in the 90’s might have something to do with that feeling we have also. We got our coffee and went out to the patio to drink it. The mornings are not too bad here….we have a breeze and it is rather decent. We looked through some of our campground books to see what is available in some of the areas that Sherri will be working in. We have decided that the COE campgrounds are going to be our best all around place to stay in our travels. With my pass and the 1/2 price I pay for camping we will do real good on that part of our budget.

While setting outside I noticed some dirt daubers flying around the front bay. Upon investigation in the bay I found where those little pest were making mud nest in and around my generator. Well this has to be corrected right now. If they build nest on some of the working parts of the generator it could ruin it. We took a closer look at where they were getting in and decided that we needed some steal wool to put in their entrances so they would have to find another place to build their home.  Wally World run seemed to be in order today and as long as we are in Canton we would have to eat at Chin’s Buffet. Funny how that all works out.

We finished our coffee…took showers…got dressed and then headed to Canton to buy our steal wool and some other supplies that we needed. We did eat at Chin’s when we got through and it was good as usual and I ate too much as usual! When we finished eating we left there and went to Jennifer’s new home to see them and Sherri was going to do a load of wash. While there I got on the Internet….I could get a good signal there….and sent some pictures by email. When the laundry was done we came on back home and worked on plugging all the holes to the front bay. I know as long as I am in Dauber country I will need to check for mud nest at least twice a week. You might keep that in mind when you are traveling to be on the lookout for these pest and keep the nest from getting built where they should not be. They sell screens for your heater exhaust and the Hot Water Heater door. Make sure you have them installed. You may not have that problem in your part of the country but you will if you come south and you will need to be ready for them.

That just about finished me off for the day. I was soaking wet by the time I got all that done. It was time for a cold shower clean clothes and  some hot dogs. When we got through eating we wanted to get on line so we had to drive out of the woods and out to the parking lot to get a clear sky. We used the Inverter for the first time in the truck. Sherri got on Yoville and I chatted for just a short time. Between the heat and the bugs on the screen I had to call it a night. Sorry I left so fast out of chat but I could not take it . I hope we have a better signal in Lewisville…time will tell.

We got back and ate some ice cream…I could get on line to read a journal or two and then it was time for bed. Another day in paradise gone. Tomorrow we hitch up for our move to Lewisville. We will be staying at Hickory Creek COE. I will post some pictures and detail then. Sherri and I will say so long for now…we will return…
