Today we rode our bikes for the first time in a long time, about six miles out to the lighthouse and back. Scavenging the beach for driftwood on which to mount some bird wings that we found last week, we noticed the blue light was flashing, so we brought home two pieces of driftwood for the price of one! Attention K-Mart shoppers! Take two, they are small!
After lunch, I did some maintenance, since the weather was so nice. The rain gutters on the Ship had become plugged with leafy material. That meant I had to pull a ladder out of the truck to ream the organic material out from under the bolts holding the awning to the top edge of the trailer. That didn’t take long. Then, the battery cables on the truck needed to be cleaned of corrosion. There are two batteries on a diesel, so four connections to clean; not a big deal. It is not all fun and games out here on the road!
