Today's low was 55 and the high was 78. It was breezy most of the day again.
It must have been a planetary line up or something but I was out of bed at 8:15 today AND I did three laps today with Larry.
I spent some time waiting for the light to get right and then set up and photographed the ten scarves I have ready to get posted on the website. Then I had to spend time editing the photos and I still have to re size them and I have to come up with descriptions for each scarf and prices.
Later we took a walk and I left a pile of books up at the clubhouse library and Larry walked on to check the mail. He came back with our electric bill for the past month. It is WAY expensive down here...they charge the highest price for electricity we have seen in almost five years of traveling the country. Three years ago we were here for three months and paid 98 dollars for our electricity. Our one month here was $50 for electricity. We average about a dollar a day, so these prices are ridiculous. Somehow they are charging more for electricity in here than the power company actually charges, hmmm. We haven't used our electric heater here at all and we always turn our hot water heater off at night, for our month in Pahrump with running our little heater day and night because it was sooo cold our electricity cost $66. Here we are paying a lot more and using less.
The one thing that makes staying in this park (that I seem to complain about a lot) tolerable is our Canadian friends. They are all just a super bunch of people. Tonight we went over for a good old fashioned weanie-roast on long forks over the campfire. We feel honored to be included. Everyone brings their chairs and drinks and whatever they have to add to the table of food...starvation is never an issue with this group! It is amazing how quick they all can throw a gathering together. It is fun being able to sit out under the stars in February and not have icicles hanging off of the trees and body parts.
