We've been fairly sedentary for the
past few weeks. Last Wednesday we took in the lunch buffet at The
2nd Street Bistro at the Double Tree in McAllen, turned out to be a
very good Tex Mex offering. It was 2 for 1 with 2 beverages, which
made it a fairly decent deal. We also have been hitting some of the
country and rock and roll jams at local parks. The weather is
forecast to be much better in the coming days, into the high 70's to
mid 80's.
Dale's been busy with crocheting
classes and Spanish classes, here in the park, seems to be enjoying
both. Also she has made a lot of headway on getting our tax records
sent off to our preparer of many years in Indiana. In the mean time,
I have been basically a slug doing only what needs to be done and
catching up on my sleep, which has been hit or miss about every other
night. Either waking up at 2:30-3:00 for the day or sleeping until
7:30.
This next weekend we have entertainment
at a local park by Adam Pope and The Rebel Roots. They are a 3 piece
rockabilly band fronted by Pope, who is a songwriter from Nashville,
Tennessee. This will be our 4th show with him performing
and we hope to not miss it.
Yesterday started off with the second
“dead” battery in the past week on the Flex aka Oster Toaster. I
used my compact jump start and it fired right up. I checked the
voltage at the battery while running and found 14.5v from the
alternator. After about an hour of running and charging, I turned it
off and found 10.43v at the battery terminals. At this point it was
off to the local Walmart for a new battery, This morning all is well
the Flex fired right up without any hesitation, but I had a low
battery alarm from our, Tire Pressure Monitoring System, driver's
side rear needed a new battery. So that interrupted my planned early
morning nap, as I replaced the battery which should make that sensor
good for a year, just have 19 more batteries to replace over the two
motorhomes and two toads.
I think Duchess and I will wait for
Dale's return from one of her classes at the patio table, take in
some sun, read some and more than likely, both doze off.
Until next time...Terry
