This Did Not Post For Some Reason

And I was too pissed at the crappy Internet connection to notice: The Headline Was: Cold. Rainy. Went To The Beach and I’m gonna post it now. Last Sunday:

After our morning absolutions (and me making a run to Walmart on the other side of Aberdeen to get some tools to fix a leak) we headed out.

Took 101 North to some podunk road that headed towards Pacific Beach. Rained all the way.  Drove out onto the actual beach and parked for a bit. Got out and walked the Dog around. He tried to eat every shell he sniffed out. Dipshit. But, holy shit, it was cold and windy and somewhat rainy and after about 10 minutes I’d had enough. Back in the truck for me!

Followed the road back to Aberdeen (another stop at Walmart) and back to the campground. Tried fixing that damned leak (back of the toilet. Fresh water leak) but tightening everything up and putting one of those hose clamps on (which you CANNOT tighten up enough!) hasn’t worked. So, we’ll just have to continue being frugal with water and making sure we check how full the catch bowl is.

Raining like crazy off and on. Sucks. Nice to be out with SWMBO though. So nice that I made Thrive-Spaghetti for dinner. (It was okay. Wouldn’t want a steady diet of it and next time I’ll be adding more spices and stuff to it.)

Anywho, that’s really about all there is. We’ll be heading home tomorrow.

Well, It just Ain’t Gonna Work!

image2We be at the Hoquiam RV Park (in Hoquiam, WA) and I’ve been trying to log in to their Wi-Fi. Ain’t working. SAYS it’s connected and secured; just won’t bring up any sites I try to go to. Looks like I’ll have to turn my phone hot spot on.

So, yeah, I’m on my laptop. I’ll try my new tablet later. Or the LG. Which has started going TU on me. Which is why I had to buy another tablet. Forgot though: the LG has 4G on it to let me do things even when there is no Wi-Fi available. New tablet doesn’t so I have to turn my phone hot spot on. Ain’t modern life a kick!

SWMBO got home right on time and we took off to come here. Was a nice ride even if it did rain about 3/4 the way. She made it nice. Even when she started bugging me about having to make a “rest” stop. I actually had to pass someone! Pretty bad when a guy pulling a trailer passes your ass!

Caravan is working okay except I have a leak from the back of the toilet. Looks like where the hose attaches. Will look for an open hardware store in our travels tomorrow. Really flooded out the head though! At least it was clean water. And the furnace worked just fine once I remembered to turn on the gas. (Funny how that works.)

And that’s really about it. Dog’s doing okay on this trip. I think he’ll work out as a travel dog. Which is good since we’d prefer it that way.

I’m tired. That pizza we had delivered (camping out!) has filled me up and made me sleepy. Think I’ll lay down and read a bit.
