SUNNY SUNDAY
Posted: Sun May 03, 2009 5:24 amGOOD MORNING ALL!
Looks as if it will be nice and Sunny today, and am hoping the winds of yesterday will calm down. It was way too windy to do any outside burning, although it was sunny and pretty after the morning rains quit. I cleaned up the old trailer yesterday and got ready to try to install new Pex plumbing in there. I bought all the piping and fixtures/connectors last year, and will try to see if I can get it ready for running water. It has a small holding tank for fresh water, as well as as a connection for shore water, and a pump, and a water heater, a kitchen sink, a shower, and an antiquated toilet. Most everything looks easy to get to, so we shall see! The amount of room in that old trailer is more than I have in my new trailer! I really love it. It's biggest problem is that it has some wood rot in its skirts, and some seam leaks, which I will try to re-caulk along the walls. The roof has been great since I put a rubber coating on it a couple of years ago. But it really should be taken apart and have the 'skirts' replaced. The floor seems sturdy enough, so far, and the steel frame appears to be in good shape. But there is something to be said for a brand new one as far as having no doubts as to its integrity. This old one would be fine for hauling short distances to local campgrounds, but I would never trust it on long hauls.
Coffee is Hazlenut Creme, and there might be some leftover goodies somewhere, which I have no desire to even look for!
I combined a couple of my spring peeper videos and pond sounds at night yesterday, and edited my thread on my first campout, for any of you who would like to see the new videos. I HAVE to learn to NOT try to focus the camera while taking videos, as it doesn't work! I was very noisy fiddling with the camera....sorry about that----next time I'll know better. The videos of the otter didn't come out at all, as it was too dark. I'll try to catch them again as the summer goes on.
Hope everyone has nice weather today so you can get outside and have fun! Let us all know what's up in your lives.

The last two she's brought me have been dead. Good cat! 
. *Sigh* Sat here for a bit and sure enough, at 6, she started a'brewin. I'm using my coffee cup for a bowl as I'm lazy and don't feel like moving coffeemaker and a heavy tote to get at the bowls in the tote under it.
Or as Echo would tell you, I could sleep all day long and not get up till midnite or 2 or 3 in the morning.
They sure were noisy yesterday/last nite. *Sigh* But they quieted down about 10 which is when quiet time starts.
I can just hear someone, some where saying, "Oh look at that dear, poor thing trying to get to the bathroom. I'm so glad we have our big RV with it's own bathroom." 
Hopefully a shower will improve my mood?
