Judy called Splendide. They emailed us easy to follow printed instructions on how to open the washing machine door with a screwdriver after the handle has been ripped off, so we can rescue the clothes while the replacement handle is in the mail to us. We’re not the first ones to break the handle. The laundry has been rescued. The new handle is on the way.
Things not to do while motorhoming
Don’t rip the handle off the door of your washing machine.
Question
My daughter has a question I’m unable to answer. Any help?

So,
I’ve been doing a lot of walking at night lately, and I’ve noticed that as I’m walking through my neighborhood, on a two mile or so walk, I’ll have an average of 3 or 4 streetlights go out as I walk under them. I’ve never thought that much about it – figured they were just flaky lights. However, two things happened recently that makes me wonder if it really is random. First, a friend of mine was telling me that her “husband puts out streetlights”. If she’s walking alone they stay lit, but if her husband is with her they go out. Second, I was walking along Isabelle Road last night, up where it is four lanes, and four of the big lights went out as I approached them. Each time, it happens when I’m around 5-10 yards away, and they will usually go back on right after I pass them. I was paying attention last night, and watching the lights for quite a distance ahead, and never saw one go out unless I was about to pass under it. These were big lights on a main road, and I think they’re supposed to be fairly reliable. It wasn’t every light either – two were in a row, and one earlier and one later.
So, why is this? Is it random? Do I give off “dark rays”? Would any of your friends know? Am I lying to get attention?
Have a good night.
Love,
Becky
Towcar update
I should clarify. That was not our towcar that disappeared from behind the motorhome a few weeks ago. I forwarded a report from a friend describing how they had lost their towcar. Some have wondered why it took so long to see in the rearview camera that the towcar was gone. In fact, they never noticed in the rearview camera that the towcar was gone. Things just didn’t look right when they stopped for fuel. Our towcar, the Jeep, remains intact, right behind the coach, right where it should be.
Glenwood springs
Wow. That was a cold one last night in Breckenridge. 33 degrees. Warm and comfy inside, though. Tiger Run would be a good place to beat the summer heat, next time there is summer heat. The high was only in the low eighties today in Glenwood. The forecast for tomorrow is in the seventies. Maybe next year. A field goal to win with no time left on the clock. The Broncos’ undefeated season continues. Tomorrow: a new job in Carbondale.
