Good Morning Everyone;
Had a good drive to Salt Lake. Got here at 7 pm. Just under 12 hours travel time.

Tim - before you put in the new pump check to see if you are getting enough power. If the house batteries are not being charged it may be the issue. I believe the house batteries power the pump. Surprised that the 4 gpm is only 40 lbs. Should be 50 - 55. But it will definitely give you more water.

Take pictures while you are out in the rocks. Lloyd will probably like to see the fun Deb's truck is having while he is recuperating.

P.S. - Tim the gas gauge could also use some replacement.

Did I mention it is cooler here in Salt Lake? Yup. it is. Just below freezing. Big snow storm predicted for tomorrow. Then sun for a few days.

Lazy day today.

Have a great day.

Feeling better today! Boy, this has been horrible. Between Deb and I we have been down over a week.

Some how while I was sick the Jeep got dirty????

Gordon, glad you are there safe and sound. Hopefully you get a nice covering of powder to play in.

While healing,,,, I missed a ton of neighborhood project/repairs. Well I am sure there will be more I can contribute to.

Have a great day all!

Glad you are feeling better Lloyd.

Popeye - how does that dreaming about something work? I dream about great golf games but when I get to the course reality hits.

Good morning all!

66% chance of rain here today, 61° at the moment. No sign of the sun.

Went to the Araby Acres Jeep club pot luck dinner last night,,,, great food and fun people!!! Got home soon as the sun went down Deb and I are still recovering from whatever ya call the crud we had.

No jeep run today, there is one scheduled for Thursday instead,,,, and the usual Wednesday event.

There is a big Jeep Rally this weekend near the Saltan Sea, I think we are going to drive up there and check it out Saturday. Supposed to be over 100 vendors. Jeep jewelry and such...

Popeye, I dreamed the Jeep was clean and today it is,,,, but $13 is missing from my wallet!!!

Lloyd
I wasn't talking (writing?) about it happened in a dream.
I meant you took it out while you were asleep !!!!
The missing money proves I was right . Ya dunnit again!
It really happened , no dreams about it .

A game cam will give evidence of your nocturnal wanderings.....
You can post the vid link here , we won't tell anyone .

Lloyd and Deb, hope you get over the "Crud" quickly! When it rains in the desert, the smell after is worth the inconvenience! Also the desert comes alive after a nice rain!

Gordon, hope the skiing is good,, enjoy!

Still nothing from geocritter, (Steve)? Starting to worry a bit! Hope everything is OK?

Everyone have a great day! Rail!

Good Evening;
Ski report - Day 1. Lots of snow. Road going up was restricted to chains or 4x4. Even then it was slippery. At the hill. 9 inches overnight and another 6 inches by the time we got there. Snowed all day. Probably over 2 feet. Waiting for the snow report for the day. Supposed to snow another 1 -3 inches tomorrow. Just finished waxing the skis.

Had dinner, waxed skis, writing the thread, going to bed. 8:43 is well past my bedtime today.

Hi all.

Been keeping things going at the S&B. Getting a new garage door, with all the new gear, with Wi-Fi enabled for remote access from were ever we are as long as we have Internet access, etc.

It is amazing what needs to be upgraded after 20 yrs or so... More about that later.

Loyd, hope you both get to feeling good again. I enjoy the adventure updates.

I hope everyone else has better health, better living, and overall enjoyment of life.

Ted

Man I love this RV life. Yesterday we left Albuquerque and spent the night in Crosbyton Texas. Crosbyton is one of those Texas county seats that has a town square with two of the sides residential, two options for prepared food, DQ or home town restauarant. And they have some full hookups for RV parking at the city park, free for two nights and $10.00 per night after that.

400 miles with only one stretch stop about halfway and it was easy peasy. And according to GG girl (Garmin) we should be home mid afternoon, just three hundred miles, day early. Five weeks on the road and the thought of home is reassuring-scarey. It will be nice to take a shower in the big shower but then there is the reality of a ton of projects we have to get done before we take off for the big trip come end of April.

Coffee was/is good this morning. Doser the monster weeny dawg loves this place, we're the only ones here so that means no leash. If in the next couple of weeks best thing about me gets a clean bill of health we're going to have the summer to remember.

Jane (coach) is a true pleasure this trip. Our first two were nightmares of things going wrong but this one we've only had a hiccup with the new radiator that was fixed with a little tightening of the hose clamp. And last night we lost the fluorescent lights in the bedroom, LED's will be the fix.

I hope all of y'all are only having ten times the fun I am.

Morning all !

55° here, mostly sunny. Puddles every where. It rained until after 9pm last night.

Deb and I are feeling better, not 100%, but much better. Thanks for all the well wishes!

That looks like a ice TT Rail. They will enjoy that for sure.

Harvy, glad you'all enjoyed yourselves. Safe travels back to the house, and give Dozer a pet for me!

Jeff. pictures of the new project please. We need to track these things.

Ted, yes houses are changing quickly now, and new house buyes expect much more than just a roof and walls.

Have a great day all!
