A New Heater

Living in an RV can be a challenge in the winter.  It is tougher to stay warm and we have tried a few different heaters to supplement the furnace in the RV.  I think we have finally found a winner.  When we were at Costco, about a week ago,  we walked passed this one end cap and felt the heat.  Tim discovered that not only was it a great heat source but also costs 1/2 as much to run it.  Now, I am warm ALL the time and we are saving money while running it.  Thanks Tim & Costco!

The Flu! How Are You?

I don't know about your area of the country but here in eastern Tennessee the flu is running wild.  Schools are closed due to the flu.  Luckily here at the farm we are all good; knock on wood.  However, we have friends and family members suffering through it.  It does not sound fun.  The lastest victim is my sister Pam.  I hope you feel better soon.  As for me, I got a flu shot and I hope to stay flu free.  It does help that we are away from the population and when we do go out we wash our hands constantly.  Go away flu!

Super Bowl Movie Party

Here at the farm none of us were interested in the Super Bowl and at first we were going to watch it just for the commercials but after hearing that NBC would broadcast players kneeling during the National Anthem we decided to skip it all together. (I know no one kneeled). We decided instead of watching the game we would watch a movie.  We still had all the great food; wings, dips, crackers, cheese, sausage balls, veggies, etc.  We used my air fryer for both the wings and boneless wings and it worked out well.  We watched the movie "Geostorm" which was the perfect movie to watch because you did not have to pay that much attention too so the food could be enjoyed.  All in all, we had a great time and did not care about the game. I saw the last two minutes of the game (congrats Eagles) because I was waiting for " This a Is Us" to start.  Great show!

Our Surround Sound Is Back!

One of the great "extras" in our RV was the surround sound system that came with it. There are seven speakers through out the RV along with a woofer and then Tim added a sound bar.  We had it for a few years then after having to replace our second receiver we gave it up for awhile.  Well Tim used his Amazon gift cards that he received for Christmas and bought a new receiver.  After spending the day setting it up I am happy to say we have sound again.  It is amazing what a difference it makes while watching movies and everything else.  Tim had to do some rearranging which also meant our media cabinet had to be emptied but that just allowed me to get rid of things and reorganize my DVDs and blu Rays.  So what started Friday afternoon was finishe Saturday morning.  Thanks Tim
( & George)' it sounds great and looks good too!

The Count Was Not Rigged

There has been some questioning of the tally of the voting for which sign was better.  Some even are calling it the "Fair Vote".  Well, it was fair AND can be documented!  The facts or votes are all there for anyone to see.  So, challenge accepted to prove the votes.  Why do I feel like this is the 2000 Presidential election and I am back in Florida?  Hahaha.  There were five votes commented on either this blog of Facebook.  Three for the left sign and two for the right sign.  I didn't even need to vote so to the naysayer questioning the "fair vote", go and count the votes.  The left sign still wins!
With that said I will post some pictures of the snow we received.  It is a lot more interesting!

The Left Sign Wins

After tallying up the votes the sign on the left wins.  Sorry guys but moving the sings to the side does not allow the arrows to be seen from the top of the road when you need the direction.  With this said I am in serious doubt that is will be changed anytime since the votes for the right sign were also the ones that changed the sign.  I may need to be the one who has yo change it back.  Time will tell.  The important thing is, the left sign won!
Snow Update- we got a dusting of snow so the weather people are 2 for 3 and 100% so far.

The " MASH" Sign Was Changed

The "MASH" sign I created has been changed and I need your help in convincing a few people that it needs to be changed back.  The sign is suppose to let visitors to Quail Way which way to go once the summit has been reached.  Well sometime last week a couple of the signs were changed and now its guidance, in my opinion, is lost.  You cannot see the signs that were changed until you are right next to them.  So here is where I need your help.  Please let me know which sign makes sense.  The winning sign will be either changed or it will stay.  (I get to decide on a tie.).  Please comment below your choice and thanks for your help!
