Living in an RV Henly RV Park Tuesday 04/23/2024

I had a strange night’s sleep but was awake enough to crawl out of bed around 8:30 am. The first thing was to raise all the blinds to let the new day in and then the usual morning ablutions. It did not include a shower as we are still without hot water, and I forgot to turn on the water heater which takes around 15 minutes. That is OK as the dogs smell worse than I do so they are not going to…

I got up at a very reasonable hour, for me that is, and the first thing was to bring out the feeders as it usually is. Both big ones were empty and needed filling, which I did before we went walking around the park. We covered a little over a mile on that first walk. It was a bit breezy, and the wind had a chill to it.  We met a couple of other dogs taking their master’s out walking just as…

Sitting and Waiting  I sat outside on the deck today waiting to see what might come my way truth to tell there was not much going on not even a bird singing its song a couple of birds did fly our way only for a minute did they stay as the bigger birds blocked their path and so it turned out they had to be last and wait their turn for the big birds to go I wonder why Nature planned it so in the…

We had a tremendous thunderstorm just after I went to bed, and I lay there watching the flashes of lightning and listening to the rumble of the thunder. At one point, the storm was directly overhead or at least seemed that way, it was so noisy and there was no time between the lightning and the thunder.  Me and the dogs snuggled up feeling safe in our environment and even with all that noise and…

I awoke late and it was almost 9:15 am before I crawled out of bed. I jumped in the shower and was surprised to find that the water was not very hot. Needless to say, I did not stay in it for long and quickly dried off and dressed for the day.  I went outside and checked the water heater but could not get the thing to work on the electric side. The propane side works fine so at least I have hot…

The massive oak tree we pass on our walks. I slept very well and was ready to get up instead of just lying in bed. That is a good sign, right? We harnessed up and went for a walk down the hill on the outside road and managed to cover 1.3 miles on that first walk.   Back in the RV, I fixed the dog’s breakfast and then cooked up some chicken nuggets. Unfortunately, when I tried to eat them, they…

After another late night, I was very reluctant to wake up let alone actually get out of bed. Finally, I managed to open my eyes enough to see that the clock said it was 9:15 am. It does not matter as we have nothing planned for the day, so a late start does not hurt anything except to give Daniel something else to kid me about.  I am still without hot water as Daniel has handed the job over to…

I awoke early and ready to get up and at ‘em. Amazing what a good night’s sleep can do. After the usual morning ablutions, it was time to go out for the first walk of the day. We must have been in a walking mood as we managed to cover1.2 miles on that first walk which was up to Hwy 290 and back. We did not see any exotics on the walk,  Back in the RV, I tied the dogs up to the table so they…

I slept pretty good without having any nasty dreams and woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed as the expression goes, ready to face the day. I always say that, but the truth is that I live an extremely comfortable and busy enough life along with my two little dogs. We do not want for anything as if we do, I go out and buy it. That plus I have a lot of friends here in the campground and we are…

I woke up early but delayed getting up due to my laziness and because it was so comfortable laying there cuddling my two dogs. We eventually made the move and crawled out and after the cold-water treatment, I was ready to go.   The first thing was the feeders as it usually is. I was lucky with only having to refill the two big ones, then we went out for the first walk just around the grounds. We…

Living in an RV Henly RV Park Wednesday 04/10/2024 I slept late and it was 9:30 am before I even woke up. I have no idea why although I was probably dreaming of scary monsters or maybe even re-living the eclipse and keeping myself awake. We had nothing planned so waking late did not matter that much. I slopped cold water on my face to help complete the wake-up process and then harnessed up the…

The Grackles waiting to eat at the bird feeders. They swoop in like one big cloud and the place is submerged in Grackles. The place was buzzing with excitement and preparations were going on to view the eclipse later today. The only drawback was that it was a cloudy day, and we may not get to see very much.   We harnessed up and went out walking, but we did not go far and when we got back,…

I awoke before 8:00 am and got up almost immediately to raise the blinds and let in a new day which, incidentally, was very cloudy. With the total eclipse scheduled for tomorrow, I hope the clouds help us out by moving on.  The very first thing after the usual morning ablutions was to bring out the feeders. That was after tying up the dogs so they could “help”. I was lucky that the only ones…

Bird Feeders

I have bird feeders hanging outside to feed the birds as the title implies not looking at any particular breed as all are welcome to eat the seed they fight and squabble as all birds do why they do it I have no clue as there are lots of feeders for them to eat all filled with seed their favorite treat the smaller birds all have learned keep one eye open and don’t get hurt by the bigger birds who…

I awoke early, for me, and crawled out of bed. The first thing was to open the blinds and let the daylight in after slopping cold water on my face to help the wake-up process. It was a nice sunny day although a bit windy and we harnessed up to go out walking. We barely covered a half mile, but it was enough to get the blood flowing.  I checked the Jeep but could not see any visible damage to it…

Are these “our” Zebras? If so, they have a new permanent home? Actually, I know they are not as I got to see our Zebra pair yesterday. I tossed and turned all night long and must have eventually dropped off to sleep as the bedside clock told me it was almost 9:00 am. I jumped out of bed straight into the shower to wake myself up. Cold water will do that pretty quick.  Then it was time to go out…
