That was a lot.......

7:14 am - Tuesday - December 6th - GNHS - 51° F, 68% humidity, wind 4 mph out of the west by northwest.....partly cloudy today with a forecast high of 68° F.  On this date in 2017 TLE and I were visiting 'Hermits Rest' at the Grand Canyon NP......↴


When I look back upon Monday I am amazed at how many different things I did.  I took the VW sand rail off the blocks which were keeping the driver side elevated, I found the motor was still seized, TLE and I towed it back to the storage area, we practiced putting for about an hour on our new practice mat, I cleaned all the coach windows inside and out whilst TLE cleaned the many mirrors in our coach, as well as the front of the Dometic fridge, I fixed a flat tire on my Haibike MTB.....the rear (why is it always the rear?), which took way longer than I expected, and for the grand finale of my day I walked down to the hot springs a little after 4 pm to take a 30 minute soak in the big hot pool, and watch the sun set.....


....and it was a nice sunset. I love soaking on Mondays, or Tuesdays when I have everything all to myself.

After a taco salad dinner prepared by TLE (I grilled the carne asada on the Sea-B-Que), we played 'Phase 10', which was won by TLE on the final hand.  We both 'Phased' out, but I had accumulated more points than TLE giving her the victory.....too many points in 'Phase 10' like too many strokes in golf is not a winner.

To cap off the evening we watched another Hallmark Christmas movie, and were in bed before 10 pm.

Our Starlink 'dishy' continues to perform well providing us with anywhere from 15 mbps to over 100 mbps depending on the time of day.....we're not 'gamers', so even 10-15 mbps is fine for streaming TV programs.....the rest is overkill for us.  Not surprisingly, there are probably a dozen folks here at GNHS who have Starlink, and not a negative word is heard.  We both still remain asymptomatic to the Wuhan Flu almost 36 months after its birth in the Wuhan district of China.

Thanks for stopping by!
