Monday June 27th 2016

I got a late start this morning. The quiet in the park after the noisy weekend allowed me to sleep late. I made it up to New Hampshire shortly before noon. It was already to hot to do much outside work so I continued picking through stuff inside. I think all of the draws in the living room, bedroom and most of the dinning room are now empty. I’ll look through the kitchen and bathroom one more time on the throw it all away pass. That means I could live with it if I miss anything that remains in those rooms.

Quick snapshot of the clouds ahead during a traffic slow down on the highway. The wispy clouds overhead turn into a solid bank at the horizon.

Returning to my RV home this afternoon, I was approaching a cloud bank. The wind blowing in off the ocean had moved a layer of clouds inland. I wasn’t certain if I’d get home to dry or wet conditions. As it turned out the clouds were still south and east of my camp site. Later in the evening they have moved over the area of the campground. A line of thunderstorms from the west is also forecast.

In preparation for the bad weather I’ve put the outside chairs into the basement and rolled the awning up. Heavy winds when I’m not around or asleep could cause havoc outside. It is really a piece of mind thing. I don’t want to worry about damage.

The remaining weekend residents have left the campground. New travelers and even a couple of rigs getting ready for the holiday have arrived. The motorhome in the site behind me has been replaced by a trailer from New Hampshire. While they were here when I got back, I think they have left for the night or longer.

One of the aromatic flowers around the laundry building.

On my walk around the campground tonight it was still enough that I could smell the flowers. There are several varieties in bloom around the laundry building. I think if I’d been paying attention last week the blooms would have been more impressive. The rose bushes have a few buds waiting to bloom, so all is not over.
