Freezing Out Butts Off ........................

in Washington! Last night the little electric heater was giving me problems.........or should I say yesterday afternoon. Finally got it running and let 'er rip all night long. Temp inside the M/H was a comfortable 68 when I woke up. Guess the outside temps dropped in the 30s last night and tonight doesn't look any better. We spend the day at Doug and Tami's and it might have reached 56 today. While Tami, Becky and the kids went shopping I watched John and Doug as they were working on my Rhino. I picked up a new clutch at Dragon Fire Racing in Lake Havasu when we were driving back North, some HI headlights and a horn. Today was installation day. We got to Dug's about 0930 and he and John were already working away on the clutch. It installed without much of a problem as did the horn. Ran into problems with the high intensity head lights...........this is the second set I've got that wouldn't fit. Guess I'll have to find some 06 head light housings to make them work...............or, send the damn things back again. At this rate I'll have to float a loan just to pay for the postage.

Apparently the other halves had a nice day shopping............Becky came home with a bunch of bags anyway. Tomorrow Doug and Tami are hosting a get together at the skate board park in Woodland..........about 5 or 6 miles away and are expecting about 18 or more people to attend. Hope it warms up..........guess it's no big deal since Becky and I are the only ones freezing. Anyway Tami and Becky stocked up on food and they spent the afternoon making stuff for tomorrow. We called in an order for Pizza.......it was delivered and they made an error. Tami called them back and they sent out the correct Pizza..........so we had a "free" pizza as we didn't offer to give them back the mistake.

Stopped at Home Depot to buy a new electric heater and even got 50 per cent off on it since it was left over from the winter season. Now we got a back up when the old heater decides to give it up for good.

That was about the extent of our day. More later. W&B
