Snow day 4......

7:32 am - Saturday - March 15th - TWW - 31° F, humidity 98%, wind 5 mph out of the west by northwest.....mostly sunny today with NO snow, and a forecast high of 47° F.  The view this morning.....

Got about an inch of snow overnight, but the skies are now clearing, 

and the snow melt has begun

 .....on this date in 2015 TLE and I were hiking near Sedona, AZ....

There was a lot of snow on the ground Friday morning, and the forecast showed a multi hour window with copious amounts of sun, so we were out early clearing snow off all the ground based solar panels, and even the panels on the roof of the Newell, which we never do.  However, we had only gotten our house batteries back to 64% on Thursday, and they were very low Friday morning, so we needed to expose them to the sun for as long as we could Friday before the clouds moved in again.....

....due to my left shoulder injury TLE would not let me do it by myself....what a woman!  We spent the better part of 90 minutes clearing snow, and scraping ice off the solar panels, and it paid off big time.  By 10 am our house batteries were back to 100%, as well as our Bluetti battery bank for the coach, and the big house battery bank.  I had to plug in the Honda EU200i to the Bluetti battery which powers the trailer as it was down to 27%.  We were able to shut off the Predator 5000 at 10 am for the rest of the day, which I was not expecting to be able to do.  We had sun until mid afternoon when the storm clouds for the next storm cell began to arrive.

We spent the rest of the day indoors watching the snow melt from the warm confines of the Newell salon, and watching round 2 of the Tournament Players Championship (TPC) at TPC Sawgrass in Florida.  There was one notable round of golf played Friday, and that was by Justin Thomas who went from +6 (over par) to -5 by the finish of the 17th hole....11 birdies in one round is a record for the TPC.  Regrettably he bogeyed the 18th hole to finish at 10 under par, and tied for the course record.  Had he been able to par 18 he would have held the new course record of 11 under par.

With so much snow we didn't get anything done Friday around TWW, but we have a week of sunshine coming, and much to get done in the last 4+ weeks of our sojourn here.

Thanks for stopping by!
