Sunday

Went for an early morning bike ride with the new helmet on. Against my better judgement, for Charlene, a picture is attached.
This was a day of mixed emotions. Started the day with a trip to Camping World where I bought a power converter. We were still having the power problems last night, so bit the bullet and bought it. Took a step up, the old one was 55 amps, the new one is 70 amp. The service people said there had to be a reason the unit cratered, either power spikes or brown-outs. I'm thinking poor power at Shaws Point all summer long, so.... I also bought a hard wired surge protection device. By the time I got out of there it was over $700. Good thing we went to Total Wine yesterday or we would be forced to drink cheaper whiskey, LOL. When we got back to the park, I installed the converter & [fingers crossed] it's working perfectly. Surge protector tomorrow.
Visited around the park today for part of the afternoon & met a couple who used to live in Peace River and have a park model here. She thinks she may have gone to school with Richard Proulx, but wouldn't say any more. Might be a story there??
Ice cream social this evening, the first one of the year. As usual Marg served cake with 2 other ladies, while Gerry & I scooped ice cream. The big news is the new flavour of sugar free ice cream - bunny tracks. It got good reviews. We had a good turn-out for our first event, something like 70. It's a great opportunity to meet & chat with others in the park.
