Mystery Solved and Other Things

We've now had two people tell us that the steam/heat from the shower will set off a smoke alarm.  Since it is right outside the bathroom door that would explain it.  Learned something new.

Saturday was a day where we didn't do much sitting around.  After the walk and showers (no smoke alarms) I started cleaning inside the RV and Rog started on the outside.  I ended up doing a "deep clean" and even polishing all the woodwork.  Don't ask what got into me - it was like I was possessed or something.  I was even ready to take the vacuum to Maggie.  Roger got the front and the side of the RV with the windows washed.  It was so dirty he had to go over it twice.  It was great being able to see out the windows again without looking at mud splatter.  

Sunday we did the usual - groceries and laundry.  In addition we had to visit the Walmart for RV necessities - toilet paper and digester for the black tank.  While I was doing laundry Rog washed the back end and other side of the RV.  We are all set for the next rain - tomorrow night.  

Two long days and we were pooped last night.  Fortunately the PBS station here airs the shows an hour earlier than the regular time so I got to watch the final episode of Victoria and still be in bed by 9:30.  

Laundry story - a woman came in with two cushions that looked as if they were dining chair cushions.  She put them in the washer that is set aside for rugs/pet bedding.  She left.  Towards the end of the cycle the washer started going berserk and making all kinds of noises.  There was another woman in the laundry room and we just looked at each other.  We decided one of us should open the washer and redistribute the load.  I went over and opened it to find that the two cushions had pretty much disintegrated and the washer was full of polyester stuffing.  It was ugly.  We agreed that we hoped we were done and out of there before the woman came back to ger her cushions.  Luckily we were and so have no tales of the reaction when she opened up the washer.   

All's well here - glad we aren't at home for all the snow they are getting.
