We have been fighting the heat for several days as most of you have. Friday was hot as well and when we arrived at the hamfest site we learned that there would not be any electricity available. Not a problem for the hamfest as we could use the small generator to power the engraver and vacuum, but it will not handle the large AC in the motor home, we have to use the on board generator that takes a lot of fuel.
As it was so hot, we got parked and all leveled up and started the generator and let it run the AC until about 1pm when the temperature inside was in the low 70's and shut it down and off to bed. Early in the morning it was getting warm and in checking the thermometer it was in the low 60's outside and a nice breeze from the north, so we opened the windows and enjoyed a cool but moist mornings rest.
The morning was somewhat overcast with the same cool north breeze and overall it was a comfortable day to be outside. We worked under the awning on the motor home so it stayed cool.
We got packed up, took a nap and headed for a campground near Ft. Atkinson, WI where we will be tonight and tomorrow night. Monday we will head northwest toward North Dakota.
Hopefully this cooler weather will bring some rain as all of the country we have been in the past week have been very dry and if the corn does not get some rain it will not produce much corn.
