He attached a water spigot and an electrical connection to it. They'd get out in the mountains camping with us and friends and he would set that thing out, hook the water hose and power cord to it. It was comical the funny looks and comments he would get over that. Not a power line within 50 miles, but it looked like he was hooked up to power and water. What do you know, I found the picture. My sister gave the "hook ups" away after dad passed. Yep, she's still in the dog house.


That is Funny........

Your Dad must have been a fun person !!

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 45.5, overcast and wet. Hasn't rained in a while, but it isn't drying out either.

He certainly had his moments!

He and mother have both been inducted into the National Appaloosa Hall of Fame.

Very nice looking spot Roy! I see a meter (on the utility tree)? Do they charge by usage or is it like most out here and just a nightly/weekly rate?

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Another long boring day of recovery. Plan on getting a little more active tomorrow as long as the Warden doesn't slap me down. She can get awful bossy if she doesn't think I am not only following the doc or nurses orders, but following the "between the line" instructions as well. Have a post op visit with the powers to be at 0900 on Tuesday.

Good morning Patriots.........
The rain quit and we have clear blue skies. No wind and 52*F / 11*C....... Need a little wind for a perfect fall day.
Today's main attraction is school time and a Vet visit for Lynn's Cat.......
With the weather in mind....... Wed & Thur we go into Philly. Saturday, and maybe Friday we travel to historical points in the area........
