Year 3 Day 162 – “Living the Dream”. Wednesday, 10/11/2023. Clifty Hill 2 – It was an early early cold dark morning Lowes run. We were at the store when it opened. Bought more Lumber and nails.
The Equinox was treated to a nice oil change and a child restraint recall fix.
We moved 28 pieces of Advantech at 85 pounds each using that harbor Freight winch from the ground up twenty feet to the attic floor. That means we moved 2,125 pounds. That’s over a ton of material. It would have been nearly impossible for Steve to carry those sheets up without that winch.
Under the last sheet was this little guy. He was staying out of the sun.
Lastly everyone got a haircut. Lol. At least I did and the pothos. Hope the pothos survives the deep trimming. FYI my haircut was actually yesterday afternoon.
Here’s today’s thoughts to ponder.
Today’s product recommendations are cruising essentials (paid links): 1) It is so nice not to have to worry about stapling your luggage tags to your luggage handles and to have them rip off. We have these plastic holders on our luggage and love them. We use them for Royal Caribbean cruises and also fold the MSC tags to fit in them when we travel with MSC cruise lines.

Here’s a link to it: https://amzn.to/3EO2Y4F 4) Packing cubes – I can’t say enough about them. I would never go on vacation without them again. Here’s a link: https://amzn.to/3Rxx8AA 5) You have to have a small purse for getting off at ports or for carrying a few things with you around the ship. Great for when you have no pockets to carry the cell phone. This one is beautiful. Here’s the link: https://amzn.to/3ETJNpS 6) Room Thermometer- I leave one of these packed in my bag. The temperature fluctuates so much, and I like to try and keep my room at a stable temperature. This keeps me honest with myself. Here’s a link: https://amzn.to/46tNoXH
