Still Not Much . . .
going on here with Jan gone.
In between rain showers I did get outside and installed the Wiper Huggies I mentioned yesterday. I may have a better understanding on why they don’t work very well for some users.
It’s very easy to install them upside down as the instructions are somewhat confusing. And of course if they’re upside down, they’re pulling the wiper blades away from the windshield, not toward it. Which kind of defeats the whole purpose. I’ll let you know how they work out.
I got my toad tow light test box working and it shows that there’s definitely a problem with my lights. And it’s an intermittent problem since they worked before we left Canyon Lake.
So now I’ll have to get under the truck and trace the wire harness from front to back to see where the problem is. More fun!
Tomorrow I’ll drive back over to Gina’s and pick up Jan. Then Sunday we’ll do some last minute grocery shopping, and then get ready to travel on Monday.
We’ll be heading about 350 miles out I-10 to Saddleback Mountain RV Park in Balmorhea, TX. There we’ll wait for Nick and Terry Russell to catch up with us before we head further west.
Jan’s coming home tomorrow.
Yay!

Not Much . . .
is pretty much what happened today.
Jan’s still staying with Gina, and will be until I pick her up on Saturday.
So it’s just me and the cats.
And the deer. So yes, I not only have to feed the cats while she’s gone, I have to feed the deer too. And she said no fair feeding her 9 pound cat to my 27 pound cat.
Darn. I could have killed two birds with one stone, or one cat . . .
Never mind. She’s probably reading this.
Yesterday, on our way up to Fredericksburg, we made a potty stop at a Love’s Truck Stop just off of I-10, and while wandering through the truck accessories area, I found these.
They’re called Wiper Huggies. They’re a pair of spring-loaded braces that are installed on your wiper arms and are supposed to increase the force pressing the wiper blades against the windshield.
The online reviews are mixed, but for $5 I thought I’d give them a try. I’ll let you know how they work out.
Later in the morning I drove down to the guard shack to pick up a package that had come in for me. I’m still ticked off at this $2.50 charge to hand me a box.
The rest of the afternoon I spent working on some of my projects around the rig. Slowly but surely, I’m making a dent in the list.
And tomorrow, pretty much the same as today.
