Today started out with some rain. We just sat and enjoyed our coffee with Ed and Lessie and watched the rain. We have a few chores for today but they can wait till later.
Once the rain stopped I got busy doing some fixing. Our outside Kwikki steps quit working and I have done most of the troubleshooting and it is either the door switch or the main brain of the steps that has given up the ghost. When we moved before, I had to go underneath and put a strap in place to hold them in the in position. Then whenever we stopped, we had to be part monkey to get in and out. So today I bypassed the brains and the switch and made a temporary fix to get us home. I am the master of duct tape and wire so now we just touch the right wires together in the MH and the steps go in or out. Not pretty but it works.
Speaking of duct tape one of the deficiencies that the Motorhome had when we bought it was the broken mount on the passenger mirror. The techs there duct taped it but it wasn't anywhere close to the right angle so I had to rip the tape off and redo it with some screws as well as a little bit of tape. Hope we can make it home where hopefully a new one will be waiting for us.
They were quite impressed. Sue played the peg game and got down to 1 peg first try. Dani battled away until she matched Gramma's feat!!
We all had fantastic suppers with biscuits as well.
Jack Sprat could eat no fat, his wife could eat no lean. And so between them both you see, they licked the platter clean!!!

Sheri pouted a wee bit because she didn't get chocolate milk.
This will be our last outing with Ed and Lessie this trip but we hope to continue the tradition next time. Good Nite!!!
