Making Some RV Converts . . .
For our breakfast this morning, we had some more of Miss Terry’s great homemade bread. Buttered, sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar, and toasted until the edges are crunchy, it just can’t be beat.

Both yesterday and today, I had to make support calls to GoDaddy concerning the new blog. And on both days, when the support techs (a young lady yesterday, a young man today) looked at the blog, and then ask if this was us, and if this was, what we did.
My tech support problem only took a couple of minutes to resolve and then they spent the next 20-30 minutes quizzing me about RV’ing. I guess these guys aren’t rated on the time they spend with each caller like some companies do.

About 3pm I walked over to Nick and Terry’s to work on some blog stuff for Nick. And as usual, what started out to be a 5 minute job, turned into an hour or so, because we spend so much time talking.
A little before 6pm, we got a call from Orlyn, one of our fellow gate guards from last year. He and his wife were gate guarding a railroad crossing on the same ranch we were at for 3 months. He called to check in and tell me that they just left their gate, and that the couple that relieved them only stayed a few hours before they left. They were upset at how busy the gate was.
Based on what Orlyn said, they did about 200 sheets during the month which, depending on which sheets they were using, would be about 5000 vehicles, or about 165 vehicles per day.
We’ve heard of much busier gates, but that’s still pretty busy. Hopefully, whatever we get in August won’t be quite that busy.

My three more sets of the LED strips should be in tomorrow so I can finish replacing the other fluorescents.
We had a lot of storms move through today, but most of the heavy rain passed us by. All of this is getting us ready for the front coming through tomorrow, with a high in the low 70’s and lows in the low 50’s, and this should last for several days.
Nice.
