Thursday, July 9, 2026 - Long Beach Conservation Area & Bolerama,Wellfleet, Ontario, Canada, Day 2 - 0 Miles, 214.3 Miles For The Trip
A warm night. I shut of the AC and with the MAXX fan running and an outside temperature of 73°F down to 69°F by morning, the inside of the trailer stayed around 74°F.
After my morning walk I had breakfast & read both on the internet & my Kindle. Current book is The 1619 Project by Nikole Hannah-Jones. While it was still in the high 70's sitting outside, I turned on the AC around noon because the inside temperature was hitting 80°F, too warm for my meds.
I started a rack of baby back ribs around 1:30 and sat out in the shade of the Guido's awning for the afternoon.
The grill started acting weird - the flame adjustment wasn't working right. I thought the small tank might have been empty although it felt at least 1/2 full. I unhooked it to change to me spare 20 pounder & a gush of oil spewed out. The 20 pound tank also didn't work right so I think the hose and maybe the grill is filled with oil. I didn't get much further since the food was done. We ate at 5:00 and by 5:30 it started to rain. As I was unhooking the 20 pound tank from the grill hose a cloud of propane spewed from the hose. It is probably clogged with oil. I hope the grill isn't.
Dinner was ribs, a salad, applesauce and an ice cream cone.
Until Next Time -
