We have made our way back to Yuma and yes it's HOT! We came back to get Peggy's eyes done later in the mouth. It's nice to be back. We got a swamp cooler to keep it cool outside. Inside the air conditioners run most of the time.
We had a little problem with our water softener while we were gone. It got a crack in the side and made it leak. So we had to get a new one. I put the old one in our trash bin, but when the truck tried to pick it up it couldn't make it all the way into the top of the truck. He tried 3 times but couldn't make it. So I called them and they will pick it up next week for $13 bucks. Had to tip the bin over to get it out. It's heavy!
Our swamp cooler. Fill it full of water and it cools you down. You have to sit pretty close to it. It's only going to get to 103 today!
We get up early in the morning to get outside and get stuff done before it gets too hot out. I got up at 4:30 am to make a 6:00 am tee time. We played 18 holes and I was pretty whipped out after that.
We stopped in Hurricane, UT on our way back. This was our lot and the satellite did not work at all.
But Starlink did! Starlink worked great everywhere we went!
We went to Zion N.P. for a little Brewery stop. The laws in Utah are pretty weird. In most places you have to buy food before they will serve you a beer. So we got chips and salsa to get past that stupid law. At least they got rid of the 3.2 beer law. But that was only because the big beer brewers stopped making 3.2 beer.
This is a beautiful drive on I 15 in the Virgin River Gorge. Peggy shot this video.
Driving, I cannot see the sky, the walls are so high. Fun drive.
On our way we stopped at this automatic truck wash to get the motor home and car washed. It worked pretty well. The motor home was pretty dirty from all the rain we had on this trip.
We had a road runner hunting in our yard. I didn't see him get anything.

Welcome back. You need to crank up that swamp cooler and stay close to it. 🤗
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment. See you Sunday for Bloody Mary breakfast 🍺🍹
ReplyDeleteIf you wait until October I know where you can dump that tank for free! 😜
ReplyDeleteSorry you had to return to the desert early, but it looks like you’ve made a smart move with the swamp cooler. At least you had a great trip (enjoyed the video), and like it or not, we can’t escape the medical issues as we “mature.” Stay cool, y’all!
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it back safely. Good luck Peggy with your eye surgery
ReplyDeleteSee you two the end of Oct. Can't wait to get there
