Weather: low 73 degrees, high 97 degrees, clear skies
This is a picture of some of the wildflowers we have in the Deerlick Creek COE Park.We continued working on our list of chores we want to get done while here. Since I plan to start putting some wax on the RV, I wiped most of the dirt off of it this morning. After that, I emptied our two gray water tanks, which should give us enough capacity for about a week. Carolyn continued doing her thing inside the RV.
About mid-morning, we went to the WalMart Mall to pick up a few items we need. Carolyn wants to clean the carpet in the truck, so we bought a spray-on carpet cleaner that makes wondrous claims about how good it works. We'll see. We also picked up a digital thermostat to replace the analog thermostat that came with the RV. As I wrote in an earlier post, the analog thermostat has too large a range when setting the temperature. If we set it on 78 degrees, it may go down to 73 degrees before shutting off. As the temperature warms up inside the RV, it may get up to 83 degrees before the air conditioner comes on. The plan is to swap the thermostats out in the morning before it gets so hot. From all the reports I have been able to find, the new thermostat should be a much better piece of equipment.
What about the way gas and diesel prices have been going up? The economy is way down and fuel supplies are more than adequate, yet the price keeps going up. Does it sound like some market manipulation is going on?
More later, be safe.
