Let There Be Light

 

Let there be light.  Paul's goal today - begin installing the six overhead lights in the garage.  With LED lights Paul will be able to work easily!

                           To minimize time on the ladder, Paul prepped the electrical wire and boxes.

                                                One of the two completed runs of wire for install.

                                Three outlets installed for the lights in the back half of the garage.
                      (Only two pictured because I did not realize there was one above the camper.)
                            Three more additional outlets will be installed on the front half.

                                                Our "new" kerosene heater did the trick today
                                                 keeping the garage warm enough to work.
                                                The high today - 47 degrees.  


                              In 1991 our "old" kerosene heater at work while we installed the kitchen.

Blast from the past:  October 23, 2022:  Hollywood, Florida;  Why Not? Restaurant

Word of the day - effulgence.  Meaning radiant splendor, giving off light.

How quickly the week flew by!  Hard to believe tomorrow we will be "wrapping" it up and preparing to head back to RI on Sunday.  Meanwhile I intend to spend one last night soaking in the jacuzzi and enjoying the warmth of the wood stove!

Newlyweds

 I am so, so happy for these guys!   Love you all!  The photos capture the happiness and love perfectly!  And that kid - how adorable and enchanting and priceless!  A simple ceremony in Maine including snow - doesn't get much better than that! Meanwhile Paul and I are still at the marina dock.  Last night I mentioned breaking the washing machine.  Then I thought I broke the toilet (or forgot how to use a marine toilet).  Turns out the water pump died causing the washer to become confused and the toilet not to fill properly.  Ugh.  We have a foot pump for water at the kitchen sink so we made do last night and then went to bed. This morning Paul switched out the pump for the spare we had on board.  Another spare has been ordered and we will grab from Marc's when we get to Palm Beach. (Thank you Marc for being our Amazon drop!) I managed a couple batches laundry and tried to dry some outside but despite being super windy, everythi...

Welcome Home Charlotte

 Welcome home Charlotte!                                               Charlotte dressed for the season! My plan today - spend a couple hours finishing laundry, horse care and dishes at Megan and TJ's.  First task - check in with Mark, the farrier.  Though neither horse has shoes, their hooves still grow and require trimming every 7-8 weeks.  Both horses are easy and Mark was done quick.  Thank you Rebecca for completing morning care and field mucking.   I moved to the house where I found the dishes done  (Thank you again Rebecca!).  Okay, I'll make a quick batch of pineapple salsa and toss in a quick load of laundry.  That's when my day turned in to something I never would have imagined.  There was no water!  I ran out to the barn to check the water hadn't been running continuously and the...
