Wednesday, December 29/2010

It was a generally miserable day again today. Rainy and windy. It was a day to stay inside and catch up on housework (yea, right) and read a good book. Well, guess which one I chose.
John and Larry headed into town as the inverter had arrived and John was anxious to get started on installing that.
Once they returned, he started trying to figure all the million and one cables and wires coming out of and going into the old one. Well maybe it wasn't a million, okay, maybe it was only a couple!! Anyway, John knows how to do the job and will finish it tomorrow as the light is fading. One more night with the generator running will not make any difference anyway. Larry says that it is not that noisy from where he is camping so that is a good thing. He can hear it, but it is not bothersome.
The rain and the wind continue throughout the night with some steady and often nasty blowing. The motorhome was rocking and at about 3:30 in the morning John got up and put the satellite dish down so that there would be no chance of any wind damage to it. I wondered how poor old Ben was doing up on the hill with all this rain and the wind. When John returned to bed I asked if he saw Ben, and his tent blowing by!! It really wasn't funny. I can't imagine being in a tent in this lousy weather. The cold and damp alone would kill me.
Rain, rain go away, and take this bloody wind with you.
