Ranger Creek, WA – Wednesday September 2, 2015
Inside morning temp was 55 and outside temp 47, rained most of the night, mostly light however it dripped off the trees and made a lot of noise. We have used more water than normal so we will head home this morning.
When I went outside to start picking up this morning I found we had more water than we had yesterday. The MH has two 50 gallon water tanks and for some reason the front tank must have had some pressure in it yesterday so the two tanks could not equalize, I can only see the rear tank. We were down to 1/8 on the propane tank so we headed home. I need to rebuild the arbor on the front of the house before we head south on September 21st.

Thank TED Radio Hour on NPR.
One of the dates I have been looking for is when did the government change GPS system so we could actually use it. Before May 2, 2000 GPS’s had random calculation which would only give you a location within 3 football fields of your actual location. This is when turn by turn GPS systems became a reality for all of us.
I listen to TED Radio Hour on NPR where Guy Raz interviews people who have done TED Talks as a follow up to their talk and grouped together under a topic, I.e. “Making Mistakes”. 1984 was when the first TED Talk occurred, I didn’t know they had been around so long.

Tanya and Mike stopped by this afternoon. They have been camped on the other side of Mt. Rainier at Cougar Rock, They had significant rain the whole time they were at Cougar Rock, however with tarps and skill they still had a good time. It was amazing to see them today. They are both GREAT people.
