Had the camper out 5 times. Helping my friend (behind the scenes) who sells at a Farmers Market. She gives me all the produce I can handle in exchange so I’ve froze & canned quite a bit.
I sew quilts for charity and just made & delivered 30 tote bags to Child Protection Services so they have something other than plastic grocery bags when they remove children from an unsafe place.

I'm just binge watching all day since I got nothing else to do. I think I'm gonna cook delicious dinner for my family using our Cook N Home cookware.

oh yea ...lots of fun LOL
9/29 UPDATE:
Project got postponed due to out of stock shower pan
Finally got it yesterday
Old tub/surround and tile OUT (Sawzall is my friend)
Had to redo/reroute hot/cold water lines. During build of house floor jockey plumber stubbed them up thru FLOOR 3" outside of wall (old tub fit over top of them)
Low profile shower pan would NOT....thanks to 'sharkbite' fittings they are now inside the wall and connected to single lever shower control valve.
Had to level subfloor ...it was off level 1/4 bubble AWAY from drain
Had to redo/reroute drain line to match up with pan drain hole
**every project REQUIRES at least 1x trip back to hardware store
Got pan set, control valve plumbed in and drain hooked up yesterday
Today I set the surround walls, installed 2 grab bars (1 at entry & 1 in center of back wall), installed the double sliding doors, installed trim around exterior of walls/control valve trim-control lever, shower arm-hand held shower and 2 matching towel rings
Cleaned up.....not near as messy as I had thought it would be
Demo and install went very well....HAD FUN doing it
Tomorrow......HOT Shower time YEAH!!

Recently completed a garden pond with waterfall in backyard, it certainly drew the frogs....had to train our Border collie to stay out of it.
Wife is planning youngest daughters wedding.
We have made up lost ground in the camping department. Just spent a week on a beautiful lake in southern VA " philpott " where I caught my biggest bass of the year.
First full year of retirement has been very nice to say the least.

I lived there for ten years. Since it is by law to remain undisturbed it is every bit as beautiful. As is the North Boundary area. "Ferdinand" the East Gate NP parks employee let me through at least a 100 times free because I repaired broken down RVs on site with zero noise and disruption of ambiance. Tuolomne Meadowns campground. When LIMBO my Malamute gave Ferdinand a kiss on the cheek the deal was sealed.
