Who in their right mind would think that the lovely land of 10,000 lakes would be too warm? Please allow me to explain.
I have noticed over the past few weeks that the ice cream (three different kinds) has not been as frozen as it should have been. I blamed it on the extremely hot temperatures we have been having lately. Deep down I probably thought..."oh no, the freezer is on it's last leg". Anyway, Sue was getting some food out of the big white box to put in the camper after work today and she discovered that we had major melt going on in there. Of course it happened while it was full of food. I do think we caught it in time and the meat was still very cold, not frozen, but still preserved.
I guess we will know for sure after we consume the flesh this weekend. We transferred the items to other freezing devices here at Coyote Ridge so we should be okay until we get to the freezer store to purchase a new one.
That project will have to wait as we are pulling out tomorrow for a long weekend of camping and fishing at our favorite campground. If this weekend goes as planned, we may become seasonal residents. The campground is on a lake with VERY large sites and only 20 of them, so it is very quiet and laid back. That is just our style. I will get some pictures this weekend if we can strike a reasonable deal.
Since we are still among the ranks of working stiffs, we thought this would be more convenient and get us out of Dodge more often.
I will fill you in when we return.

I'm looking forward to pictures.
What a bummer, a freezer is a necessity, especially if you have a deer hunter in the family, my son & his friend's got three last fall, so we still have plenty of meat,we paid to have the first one done, but me and the boys butchered the other two. Last years does were really tasty. Have fun on you holiday. we are staying home and letting th amatuers have the campground this weekend. Be safe out there. Sam & Donna.
