Another cloudy / foggy northern California day. Seems this is the norm for this area at this time of year. We decided given the weather it would be “an at home day”
After breakfast I went outside and finished off washing down the trailer and truck, both look a lot better now; if only I could get Lyn to volunteer to wax them (don’t tell her I said that!).
Once that was done I went back to work on an issue we are having with part of our internet equipment. We have a small out door unit that sits on a mast above the trailer that receives and transmits our WiFi signal. Because it is outside it receives a stronger signal, and also transmits a stronger one, it doesn’t necessarily speed up the internet per se, but it does mean we have a better chance of getting a signal, and therefore a better service. I had managed to get the software in the unit working over the last couple of days so I put it back outside. After I had finished washing the trailer, it no longer worked. All I can think of was that water somehow affected the waterproof unit. Back to the drawing board!
We also lost power this morning, which was fixed by resetting the breaker on the supply box, none of out trailer breakers blew. This happened twice more later in the day, but unfortunately the office is now closed so there isn’t too much I can do about it.
After lunch we headed out of the park for a walk around the local area, there were also a couple of caches close by. At the road leading to one of the caches was a large sign proclaiming that a special event was taking place.
The special event was a craft sale!! Made someone happy. It was being held at a local Indian (First Nations) health centre / meeting place.

We carried on with the walk and found the two caches we were looking for. There is also a lot of flowers and bushes in bloom down here, some we recognised, some we didn’t. For the following pictures with ??? under them please identify!!!

We managed a 2 mile walk, which should help burn off some excess calories! When we got back to the park we found the internet had died!! It finally made a re-appearance a few hours later.
Hopefully tomorrow brings better weather and more well behave electrons.
