Beautiful Sunrise Saturday morning
Saturday afternoon, we had a talk on fire safety. (By the
way I got the fridge extinguisher installed.)
He talked about the different
types of smoke alarms and CO detectors. After his lecture, he took everyone
outside and showed the difference in fire extinguishers. The different types
really made a lot of difference in how well they worked and some wouldn't let
the fire restart, while some, you got the fire out and it would restart. At the
conclusion of his demonstration, he sprayed himself with a foam spray to show
that the one he recommended was not harmful to people or pets. This also showed that if you couldn't get out, you could spray yourself and make a run for it. At least you would have a better chance. Cindy has one of them by our bed! There is also one in the kitchen and and one in the truck.
Sunday morning they fed us breakfast. They then had a talk
on tire safety. It also, was quite informative. After that they had all the
instructors sit in front and field questions from the attendees. Again it was a
good learning experience. And then last, but not least, we were given our Boot
Camp graduation badges or pins.
When that was over, we drove up to meet Al and Kelly (and
don’t forget Pheebs). They have a nice home and we had a nice visit. This
afternoon there is a Super bowl Party at the Activity Center.
Today, thanks to Mike MCFall, I got some comments on our
blog. Thanks everyone.
Isn't that Mac just fabulous. We ended up buying five extinguishers from him and we're hoping never to have to use them. Where are you headed next?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments. We are staying at North Ranch until next Monday(11th). We will head to Ed's birthday party at Lake Havasu with some of the people we met at Boomerville and watch the fireworks. After that????
DeleteNice to meet you folks yesterday. That Boot Camp sounded like a great idea for folks. Always so many questions need to be answered when folks slide into an entirely different lifestyle. Sounds like you two are well on your way to doing things right. Keep up the good work & many happy trails to you....:))
ReplyDeleteIt was also good to meet you. Tell Kelly thanks again for showing me the Wilson antenna booster.
DeleteIt was so nice to meet you in Boomerville - you came to look at my small quilt collection. We left early as I had a teaching session set up. Glad to hear you are having fun at North Ranch. I was sorry we did not have longer to visit.
ReplyDeleteMaybe our path will cross somewhere. Thanks for the comment.
DeleteNice that you got to meet Al, Kelly and Pheebs and see their new house. The Boot camp and seminars are great for everyone to attend. And individual wheel weights are a must for safe RVing
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment. Maybe we will get to meet you sometime.
DeleteGlad you met "Mac" the fire guy...Better safe than sorry!! Same with Tire pressure Monitors as you know!!
ReplyDeleteNow you need to get weighed, if you haven't already,,,,,,:-)
Ray and Cindy,
ReplyDeleteGlad to meet you via a blog from The Bayfield Bunch, Al and Kelly. We too are getting ready to start our RV dreams soon. Will be following you and your adventures. We hope to meet you out there on the road.
I too found you from Mike McFall's blog. We are currently in the Rio Grande valley in Texas and also hope to meet you some day on the road. Good luck and safe travels.
