Good morning!!!!

[hawkeye08]

Always enjoy catching up Monday after being off the computers over the weekend..

We have a half beef being cut and wrapped this week, so asked daughter when we could get freezer we are borrowing from them, they are both working 6 days a week right now, so they went and got it (it was at their property) and delivered it Saturday after they got off work.. very nice of them.

Short week this week as I have some vacation to use up.. looking forward to being mostly off.

Stay safe, prayers for those in need.

Good morning to all! Low went to 20, only going up to 34 here today. No rain or snow, but an hour north, got 16-20 inches of snow. We just got the wind. It woke me up a couple of times last night, alternating waking up wifey, which in turn woke me up.... not a good nights sleeping at all!

Wind is really gusting, tree branches down, windows rattling..... joy....

Jay, have a safe and uneventful trip home....back to reality...cold, snow, rain. But look on the bright side... no monkeys or amorous lizards:thumbsup:

Randy, it is great to hear of your improvements and speedy recovery! Check out local golf courses for info about the cart canopies. They can usually be found for cheap.

Rick, yes I will be painting it LS blue. I initially was thinking white, but that would get really dirty looking. I still have the paint formula you had posted a year or two ago (at least I think it was you), so going to do that.

Ron, nice feeder pics. They reminded me that I have to go retrieve our feeder from the old house and get it filled.

Wng, maybe PePe moved on now that he knows you are looking for him:thumbsup: the coffee roasting sounds delicious!

Thomas, any other winter visitors since BooBoo is sleeping?

BEF, take care going to work.... seems that when it is only a couple of inches, people forget to use caution. Hopefully you are getting back into the swing of work without too much difficulty.

Drew, good luck on confirming your reservations. Some day, I will just do one of those “ play it as it goes “ RV trips.... just head N, S, E, or W.... see what transpires or where we would end up. It would be interesting at least.

Errands on the to do list today, need to get all the hairs cut today... I am really scruffy... hair cut about a month and a half past due, also let the beard grow, only trimmed that to shape one time.... I wouldn’t want to meet me in a dark alley.....

Everyone have a great day! Prayers sent.

“ That canopy looks like it was made for your LS, Ted. Is that a kit anyone can buy, or a one off you put together yourself? If the latter, perhaps you've stumbled onto a new business idea. I could be your first customer... “ —— RNG

No it wasn’t a kit. There is one golf cart repair shop in Albuquerque. Husband and wife team. They will get the old / broken carts from the golf courses and fix them up for sale. They have a “ golf cart junkyard “ out back. The wife told me $50 for a roof. When I went outside with the husband, he said $40 for the canopy, 2 different types / sets of the mounting brackets, and a golf bag carrier / basket. He kept trying to give me other stuff too....

I am not sure how much shipping would cost, but I am sure it would be a bunch due to the size, unfortunately.

Here is a link to the best priced canopies I have found. The site needs a bit of navigating, but they have some neat features. Reviews are pretty good too!

I just got back from the shop. I kinda thought the Dodge was cranking over slower than it should. It was, the battery was getting weak. I don't think it would have lasted the winter, when we get colder. 1 Duracell battery later = $324.88 cdn

68°F and .08 inches rain.

Still not really light yet this morning, not sure what’s on agenda.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Randy, if you get a real hard to resist urge to get you some hay, you might have to move to either Colorado or Canada.

"Rick, yes I will be painting it LS blue. I initially was thinking white, but that would get really dirty looking. I still have the paint formula you had posted a year or two ago (at least I think it was you), so going to do that. "

I still have the formula ... let me know if you need it again. You'll need to research prep / primer for the plastic though ... to get a good, long lasting, result.





The Rustoleum is white, I believe, so may be difficult to see on your white canopy. I'm thinking, the PlastiKote is gray which may be easier to confirm coverage.

Do any of the campgrounds you've reserved have criteria for age and condition of the motorhomes they accept?
Yes, all of them reserve right to deny based on condition while a few say no rv's over ten years old, and one "motorcoach resort" only
allowed Class A and C+, basically nothing under 35 feet.

lovely day out 65 and sunny. Nice while it lasts.

RNG, do you have an intake air temp sensor? Those were a problem on 90s Dodge Magnum engines, caused cold start and warm up issues.

When we traveled with RV. Unless it was a special campground. Never made a reservation before noon. Nice to have someone sitting beside you to make the calls
