Wednesday August 14th 2024

It was another beautiful day with lots of heat and only a little bit of rain, but once again I let the threat of rain control my day. The forecast in the early part of the day called for an elevated chance of rain shortly after noon and greater chance of rain in the late evening around nine or ten.

With that forecast, my plan was to visit one of the Disney Parks in the late afternoon into the evening. The heat climbed into the mid nineties during the day. An evening visit would have a little bit cooler temperatures. The early rain never arrived. As I was preparing to drive to Disney the sky started to rumble and the rain arrived shortly after. The forecast now called for a chance of rain until about seven. Time to change plans until another day. Of course, the rain stopped shortly after that, but it was too late to start an evening visit.

Today was a chores day. In addition to the usual cleaning and decluttering I found another splatter from yesterday’s fake butter incident. This one was inside one of the heater vents. I had to get out the tools to take the cover off before cleaning up more Country Crock fake butter.

Concern for the weather shortened my daily walk around the RV resort. The water level in the retention ponds is going down and there are fewer water birds. Today I saw a few in the trees getting a broader view of the situation from the relative safety of the high position.
