Beautify Alaska

After hitting the road before 4:30 a.m. two mornings in a row; Paul decide we needed a day of sleeping in. After a late breakfast, we drove back down to Soldotna to shop the Fred Meyer. We found all the groceries we needed, but they were out of Blue Ray Players.

So off we went to WalMart. We were tired of the skipping our old system produced and hope to fix the issue with a purchase of their ‘Top of the Line’ LG.

Unfortunately, it did not do the trick. After, a process of elimination, Paul discovered our ROKU Speakers were the culprit. We will have to bring our recent purchase back for a refund.

As we were watching our now well-functioning television; Paul jumped up quickly. His eagle eyes spotted out new neighbor (a family in a rented RV) about to unplug our hook-ups! He was of the belief that our utility pole belonged to his site.

I will never understand it – why not knock on our door before unplugging us? After a brief argument, Paul prevailed. Sadly, the neighbor did not have a long enough hose to hook up his water. They left in the morning.

Tip: If you are going to rent a Recreational Vehicle, please learn camping etiquette. (Several fellow campers have ignored out boundaries by walking through and/or using our space. Even had a child who would stand right by our steps to look inside our RV – parents of course said nothing.)

Wildlife Spotted: Eagles and other birds only
