Where did September go? We were headed back to Livingston, TX, the last time I posted. Now it is almost mid-October?? What happened?
We returned safely to our little cottage in the pine trees. We quickly discovered the house central air conditioning had failed back in July or August. The first thing we had to face was replacing the system…at the cost of a small used vehicle.
Next we moved back into the house and cleaned out the camper. I waited for the cooler times of the days--there was a reason we immediately replaced the air conditioning system. It was hot and humid for a few weeks. Now we are enjoying the wonderful, cool, drier weather of early fall. It is so invigorating! I finally feel like getting some of the chores done.
I am looking forward to having some time to do some pottery and pottery firing. Larry ordered a new element for the kiln.
Larry’s medical tests have shown he is in a good holding pattern, so we will stay here until December. At that time, I will resume blogging as we head west to Quartzsite, AZ, to spend two or three months boondocking the in desert—camping without hook-ups. We had the solar system rewired in Eugene, OR last summer (AM Solar) in order to get a bit more from our two solar panels.
Check back around the middle of December to see what is happening in the Shoe Box! In the mean time, enjoy your fall weather; it is such a great time of the year.
