It has been over a month since I filled up the truck: 347 miles (Clarkdale to Phoenix and back, plus a few miles) over a pretty tall summit, 26.079 gallons, 13.3 MPG! And I just missed a significant odometer turnover…990 miles more until the next one, the big 155k!
For some color, a somewhat fuzzy view of our trailer and Subaru to the right of the tree. Thankfully Carplay is looking sharp!

We went out for a nice breakfast at the Black Bear Diner…still incredibly better than the one they tried to open in Great Falls!
This is the remains of the “Volcano”: 3 pancakes, 2 bacon strips, 2 sauage links, and 2 eggs. Not to mention the 3 little cups of syrup and >>5<< butter pats!
Both the Dailylife Wife and I liked our respective breakfasts (she had an omelet and a biscuit). But later in the day her’s seems to have caused some distress. A hurried roadtrip for some ginger ale:
and the return:

A sunny but cool, occasionally windy, day.
I am glad we have our heated waterhose on!

While sunny today, it remained pretty cold, particularly with that wind! So I decided to show a better view of my “office”.
Yesterday’s photo was out that window on the left.
A few more from this evening!:
Looking West after the sunset.
Looking East at the stars.
Another view of our street in panorama form, after dark. Click on it a couple times to see it bigger!

Lots of wind, rain and cold today. We didn’t go far. The furnace, which we had thought finally fixed, started its fugue again.
Here is a little of the rain and sun mixed out behind our trailer, in front of the clubhouse.

For Christmas Friends Robyn and Walter got me a big bag of chocolate flavored popcorn from the Popcorn Colonel. This isn’t that bag, but it is the popcorn! This was different popcorn I got, and the canister made a great container for the bag from the Popcorn Colonel. Filled it twice and then some.
Not much left now! Good stuff! Thanks, youse guys!
Tomorrow I will try top get some photos of our rainy day…

A couple of neighbors, on an Indian Roadmaster Trike
and an Indian Pursuit. She loves the Roadmaster, while he admits he is a Harley guy and will probably be getting another Harley.
My eBike all leashed up to the tailer.
Today was project day. #1 empty the tanks. #2: build the IKEA cart like we have in the bathroom at home, to hold more of the Dailylife Wife’s stuff in the scrapbook/sewing room.
#3 was to make me a chair for use in my office / dining table.
And the “office” is set up!
And just a little sunset color over the monitor top…

Just a few more to start the day off right!

Funny to at least some people…

A reminder of the first year we came down here…
I did take my first ride. It was about four miles roundtrip to Tuzigoot Nat’l Monument (five miles by the bike’s dash but it is off from my iPhone’s GPS a bit). I got a lock to “leash” it to the pet leash loops on the trailer, and a cover is on the way. Now if I only had the keys to the battery…
And finally, in my travels to Walmart I discovered…this…a whole room of claw machines. Most are two high! Dailylife Daughter #1 tells me on of the Walmarts in Great Falls has one too…
More tomorrow!
