After the school visit, I went over to the property. First thing's first, I need that burn pile that is right off the edge of the RV part to burn down and be down with it.  It took a while to get a fire going - everything still wet but some cardboard dry enough to get a nice fire going. 

Started feeding the fire wood versus trying to just let it burn everything. It won't happen that way, you have to keep dumping the wood on the fire, not hope that it will spread, cause' it won't.  Then it started raining.

That was almost shocking, for the forecast showed a 4% chance of rain today.  It stopped, after a short time and I went back to feeding the fire. Then it started raining again. Stop. Again. Stop - after that I went home.  For a day that wasn't supposed to have rain? It rained after that all day long.  

Now I'm finding out it's going to get down as low as 14 degrees overnight this coming week and that there is a chance of snow on Christmas.  Huh?  And I'm hoping people to come stay at the park? Lol.  14 degrees.....no thank you.  Lol. 16, 12, 23 19 starting on Thursday next week and going on the 3 days after for low temps.  

I don't wonder if I should just shut the water off at the meter at the street and drain the water out of the pipes.  Versus taking a chance of busted water lines. I have insulation around them but we're talking hard freeze, I don't think anything but heat tape will work.  I could just turn the water off, remove the connection, let the water drain out and not have to worry about it. It's that or open up all the valves to allow a drip. What's the point if no one is going to be there? 

Anyway. We went to the volunteer FF station for their Christmas party. Some fine food, good company, some awards handed out to various individuals. Home and now? I ate way too much food.  Like I wasn't even going to eat after the small lunch I had today, but it was too hard to turn down decent BBQ from a local restaurant.
