Woke up to a high overcast but cool and dry morning. There was only one main thing we had to do today and that was to go shopping for a new hair-dryer. I had been using it with no problem, but as soon as Lyn turned it on it started to cough splutter and smoke, not necessarily in that order, before giving up the ghost. I took a quick look at it and condemned it to the garbage. A little later Lyn felt something in her hair, it turned out to be a small piece of metal ejected from the hairdryer.
Once the hairdryer excitement died down it was time to perform a service on Lyn’s sewing machine, not the one that was repaired last week but the OTHER one. Most trailers don’t even have one sewing machine, this one has two.
The promised rain had still not made an appearance, so we headed off to get a new hairdryer. I was also going to try my luck at getting a US credit card to avoid the pain of buying gas on my Canadian one. Over drinks last night two of the couples had said that they were able to get one with no problem from Bank of America. I went into the bank, but the waiting time was going to be too long, so we’ll try that another day.
Lyn was given some Jo-An fabrics discount coupons which expired today, and she couldn’t possibly let them go to waste, so guess what…………
Driving home we got a few splashes of rain but that was it.
After lunch we took the GPS out, not for geocahing this time, but to measure how far we walked. Up and down all of the “aisles” in the resort comes out at 1.3 miles (2.1 Km).
Still no rain, and the skies started clearing. I should have been a weather forecaster, you only have to be right some of the time.
