Saturday at Casini Ranch, we awoke to high fog in the trees but no wind!  It was pretty nice all in all.  I needed to go to the hardware store again.  This time it was to get some epoxy type sealant for our shower.  We were developing a crack in the fiberglass pan and I didn't want it to crack all the way through and start leaking to the wood subfloor.  We also could use a bag of ice and George was looking for a microswitch to repair his tongue jack.  His jack was working in one direction only.  The technician at the jack company said one of the limiter switches was bad and it was.

We got back and worked on his jack.  We did not find a switch and decided to bypass the limiter switch until he could find the right microswitch.  Success!  That started my repair list.  The next was to fix the crack.  I mixed up the epoxy solution and had 4 minutes to get it in place.  It took a bit of twisting to get in the right angle but I filled the crack within the time limit.  It had a wonderful aroma also.  On to the clock install.  We have an Airstream clock and I could not figure out a way to hang up.  I got some of those 3m removable velcro hooks.  That worked great!  Keep going.  Remove the water saving spigot from the kitchen sink, Roxie never liked it anyway.  I also replace the right screw of the step just for good measure.  We had lunch somewhere in that mess of things also.

A bit of rest then getting ready for the potluck at 6pm.  Roxie made a pan of brownies and cooked two tri-tips for it.  I took down one of our portable tables and looked around.  There were 12 tables that seated 8 each setup.  That is 96 people!  It was all packed!!  We have not been to one of these rallies with this many people.  It was great!  The food was good also.  We visited others around the trailers afterward and got some good ideas.  We are now back in the trailer and Roxie is snoring away!

Here are some pics that I took to day of the 33 trailers here!
 

How about this one?  Glad we weren't here in 1986!

We had a very good night's sleep as we normally do in our cocoon.  We got outside, Roxie and I went for a short walk around the campground.  We went down by the river and were very impressed with how pretty and lush this park is.  As we were walking I saw bird diving to the river.  We both saw it hit the water and take off with a fish in its' talons.  It went and landed in a tree and likely started to eat.  We found out later it was an Osprey.

Roxie had a voicemail and a call to make so she did so.  The only problem was she had to stand in the middle of the road to get 2 bars of signal!  We got back to the trailer and started talking with our friends.  This is one of the most fun aspects of getting together, a way to reconnect with old and new friends.  During this time I went into the trailer and the step broke.  Man!  A screw either broke or came loose.  It appeared to be a 'normal' screw and the rest of the parts looked good.

We headed into 'town' to get the part.  We decided to have lunch there also in Guerneville.  We ate at the River Inn Grill.  It was very good food but the booths must have been new since it took a herculean effort to slide into.  We then headed to the hardware store.  This was the most interesting store.  It was SOOO unlike a box store like Lowes.  This store snaked around all over, things were everywhere, even on the ceiling.  Very fun and they had the screw!  The step was fixed in about 10 minutes.

In the afternoon we went down the Russian River and sat by the river.  We watched ducks swim by, an Osprey in a tall tree (maybe the same one) and vultures soaring overhead.  Very idyllic.  We came back to the trailer and promptly fell asleep (well Roxie a bit more promptly than I).  Roxie told me later that I was snoring up a storm and since the door was open the whole park must have heard me.  I don't know how this happens since I don't snore!

Here is a picture of the Chen's trailer, the Morelli's trailer and ours:

Another shot of down the row with a few flags flying:

Around 6 the happy hour started.  I tried, unsuccessfully, to get Roxie to go with me but she was still tired so I went for a bit.  There were about 35 people there.  I talked to some people, some that I didn't know.  It was enjoyable but COLD!  I hung around the fire and watched some semblance of fog roll through the tall trees.  As I came back to the trailer I took a shot of our lights we hung up:

More to come tomorrow.
