Back to Shorts

Another beautiful clear sunny morning / day. The heating still came on this morning but not for as long as it has done recently. We’re just past the halfway point of the trip; in three weeks we’ll be on the road heading north.

An executive decision was made, and shorts were donned for the first time in quite a while.

Monday was laundry day for Lyn, so I bravely stepped into the alien world of car cleaning. I figured that if I could wax the trailer then I should be able to do the same for the car. The outside was fine, but then I got carried away and started to clean/degrease/wax the areas inside the doors where all the grease collects. Next time I’ll work on the theory that grease provides as much protection as wax, it just doesn’t look so good!

This afternoon Lyn headed off to visit a few shops, my second executive decision of the day was made; stay at home. I did a little more cleaning of the trailer, the underside of the awning was dirty so I tried to give it a clean, it is not the easiest of jobs as there is very little tension in the awning fabric so it is hard to put enough pressure on the brush to clean it effectively. It’s a little better, but not as good as I’d like.

The final task of the day was to put together the inside of one of the storage cupboard where I had brought the wiring through for the rear camera, it was simple in theory, but difficult in practice.

Hopefully the warmth will continue, and we’ll head off to one of the trails tomorrow for some exercise and geocaching.
