To Fern Lake with Chree and the dogs (Geisha & Shlomo) via an overnight stop at Frank & Fran’s (Chree’s parents) in Old Saybrook, CT, then a nice lunch with Alverta in South Burlington, and finally a call at Pete’s RV to retrieve Delores and our new Lifan Energy Storm 3600 inverter generator.  The RV repair bill was $500 less than expected.  That’s the good news.  The bad news is that someone (NOT me!) put Delores’ auxiliary battery switch into the O•F•F position during her stay at the repair shop, which cut  power to the refrigerator for a sufficient amount of time for everything in the freezer to thaw and spoil.  Nothing like the smell of rotten chicken mixed with rancid Ben & Jerry’s to give you that Welcome Home feeling!  That and the fact that vandals have once again made off with the Triangle Square Circle driveway sign.  At least they had to break the sign in order to steal it this time, as my anti-theft modifications worked at least somewhat.  Great consolation!
