Oh Me!

Thats what I said when we checked out at WalMart yesterday. Nancy said it just doesn't pay when both of us are in a buying mood. Well,we did need a few things since we hadn't really shopped for a while. We probably bought some things we could have done without,but sometimes you like to buy things that you want without needing them. Well yesterday was that day,I think we bought everything except toothpicks.
It was a very comfortable night last night I had the thermostat set on 68* and the furnace only kicked on one time early this morning. When we woke up it was 54* so not bad. At that temp out side we can usually not have heat on because the motorhome stays nice inside,it must be insulated pretty good. The sun is shining nice and bright and the temp going up to 75*. With a day like that I like to get out to do something and not sit around inside like someone that is getting old. We always find out that we feel much better if we get out and do something. So hopefully we can find something interesting to get into.
Being a fulltime RV'er is just almost like being a young kid again,(well most of the time)in that we like to be out and seeing what we can get into and seeing whats out there.
Watching the tv is ok for night time but the daylight hours are for the outside. Theres not much on tv anyway that is worth watching. I think we had better shows on when we were only getting 3 channels.
I can remember our first television set we got back in West Virginia. Being in the hills we couldn't just buy the tv and get a set of" rabbit ears" set them on top of the tv and watch. Not in the mountains. Well we got ours for Christmas when the snow was 6" deep. Was so excited that I had to set it up and get it going. What we had to do was take an antenna to the top of the mountain and set it in the right direction with a compass and pray that it was right. then you had to run 2 single copper coated wires through ensulators with screws that you put in them trees spaced about 6" apart all the way to the house. This worked good that is until a tree branch would fall,hit the wires and twist them together then you wouldn't have a picture on the tv. So off to find where this branch was causing the trouble. Many times I went plumb to the top of the mountain,couldn't see anything wrong only to find out that I didn't see the twig that was causing the trouble only a short distance from the house. Oh my and we say the "good old days" yeah they where but they were also the hard days at times.
