Another hot one!











Not sure why I waited until 5pm to turn on the AC yesterday. It was 94 degrees, inside & out! Since I grew up in a trailer without AC, that may have something to do with it. Plus camping with the kids & no AC was fine, too. But not today! I'm on a porch at the village, sipping a cold beer with a fan whirling overhead. Life is good!
Except: no scooter, no TV = no US Open, not World Cup Soccer, no riding the roads.
Made a big batch of gazpacho yesterday morning. What was I thinking? Before I had help eating it, but not this time. It's good for me, though.
Skyped with daughter Barbara at the lodge yesterday & that was a nice Father's Day surprise. It saved her writing me an e-mail about their trip to Disney World. The pics they took are terrific & it's obvious they all had a very good time. I'm glad the travel gene is alive & well!
Got some new neighbors yesterday. A Cadillac sedan pulling a utility trailer full of camping gear. There's an older man, a younger man & 3 kids. They talk loud & a lot & seem to be hyperactive, except for the older gent. And I'm pretty sure they're from the north.
Finally talk a long walk yesterday, the first in quite a while. My knee has been hurting a lot & I thought walking it out might help. It was sore later, but I do think it helped.
I've stayed at 10 different RV places since last September and so far, this is the worst. Serves me right for not reading the reviews first. Also, I want to start writing reviews again, as they are very helpful.
Today's Pics: a view from the lobby; a neat war poster; the dam; my trailer from the top of the dam (big white spot on left)

  1. I don't see any photos.... Sorry you don't like your new location. Do you have to stay? Aren't you a gypsy? Just pick up that trailer, stop and get the Vespa on the way and say "adios"!

  2. Go back and look at some of your waterfall pix. Maybe that will help you cool off.

  3. Sorry the pics had to come later. Poor signal caused me to have to move to another location to get them to download. Would love to be under a waterfall right now!

  4. Fred, I love gazpacho! I need to get my food processor out and make a batch myself....and it is so good for you! I agree with your friend Zoe...perhaps you should pick up and go! (swing back by SC and pick up Flip...he hasn't been taking those good walks since you left...he needs your company! :)
