Another day at the Stuplich RV Resort and Convalescent Center

And another glorious day of weather too!   I failed to mention our wonderful weather in Wisconsin (after all of that complaining I did during the hot horrid humid days)...   we are in the mid 70's during the days and down into the 40's at night.  Last night we did kick in the furnace a few times to take out the chill, and we slept with the electric mattress pad on too.  Very comfortable.

Monday was a busy day again for Steve and Mel.  They did some configuring and confabulation, some comparisons and considerations, and then some complaining too... what about?  Their repair bills!


They were sitting side by side, with their cases of paperwork, with manuals, warranties, instruction books and repair bills!  LOL   They were checking how much they were charged for what part number, what procedure or what service at various places.  I think they came to conclusion that motorhome ownership is just plain old EXPENSIVE!!!!    

We took the "Tour of Wausau" yesterday with Mel and Paula, seeing all the sights, places they had lived, and scoped out some places we need to get to in the next few days.  Of course, the guys needed a stop at Harbor Freight. and we also stopped at a small town style meat market for some great steaks for supper. 

The guys were working on changing the oil in Mel's generator, and Paula rinsed out the washable filter.  She also got the grease outta Steve's good shorts!  Thanks Paula! 

We ended the evening again with a few bottles of beverages around the canned propane campfire.  The Stuplich RV Resort and Convalescent Center is located within city limits and you are not allowed to have a campfire, so this portable propane one of Mel's just fits the bill perfectly.   It even gives off heat, but not smoke or ash. 



Today's schedule holds a few more projects, including washing all my motorhome windows inside and out.  This is our view this morning as we raise our powered windshield shade (you can't quite see all of the bugs but they are there) 



Steveio's knee is doing great.  The doc office called yesterday to check on him, told him to get up and around and move it.  He has the bandage off and is able to take a shower.  Then put on smaller bandages to keep the dirt off.  He is walking around pretty good, and getting almost full range of motion already.

Time to perk up another pot of coffee, and head on over to the side porch of the Stuplich RV Resort!  I heard she has some great Mocha Bars for breakfast.....

  4. I noticed in the picture that Steve had his knees bent, and wondered that he could do that already! Great progress.

  5. WOW! Great progress on the knee.

    I hate to say it, but I wish we had to turn or furnace on. LOL At least it is cooling down into the 70s at night.

    Love your blog.
