What's New With Us
Well, another summer month is in the books and not a whole lot to report. With this virus thing still around, we have stuck pretty close to the RV Park and limited our contacts. With Anne's compromised immune system, it seems the prudent thing to do.

Practiced my cooking skills this month with a little freshly picked Blackberry Pie

Anyway, luckily, besides picking Blackberries & baking pies, I've had a ton to keep me busy. Beyond my regular RV repairs, mods, and maintenance, I've been working through the various RV products that Lippert Components sent out this summer. I've pretty well installed most of the items, and I'm now starting to put out updates on how they have worked out for us.

Many people have been asking me if we will be heading, or can we even head south, as usual, this fall. And the short answer is no. So far, the border remains closed to non-essential travelers, and with Anne's condition, it would take a drastic turn around in the way things currently are for us to consider it.
So we have booked an RV site here on Vancouver Island, BC, and will spend the fall and winter at least and reevaluated things come 2021. That means I get to learn all about cold weather west coast camping. :)
I already have ordered myself a quality dehumidifier, and I'm researching skirting for the rig, heated hoses, etc. So, stay tuned for more about that as we get into the fall months.

At least we will have a pretty view for storm watching!

We are, of course, sad to not be back in the desert this winter and will be missing all our fellow snowbirds and American pals. :( But, it will be interesting to see what the estuary and Campbell River area is like in the opposite season.
I'm sure we will get out and visit the surrounding forests, parks, and lakes, or do some boondocking Vancouver Island style, especially once the summer camping throngs subside a bit. This has been an extremely busy camping season in these parts.
