The Bloody Doors Off

We made it to Minden, despite our best efforts.

That was a joke.

Laugh?

We got a late jump, and a packed car. The four of us arrived and got luggage and food inside moments before we were hit with a torrential downpour.

I thought I hadn’t packed a diabetes medication. Thankfully Marlo had put it in the suitcase.

On the way, we stopped at a Tim Hortons for lunch. It took me 40 minutes to eat my sandwich. At least the dentures stayed in this time.

Learning curve.

If only I hadn’t bitten my tongue earlier.

This place has 3 levels. Top level are two bedrooms and a 2-piece bathroom.

On the main floor, a third bedroom with bunk beds, a 4-piece bath, kitchen, dining room and family room.

There’s a lower floor, but you can only access it from outside.

We haven’t ventured there yet.

It could be a nice getaway.

Plus a back deck with barbecue.

We face the river, and there’s a small dock at the edge with 2 Adirondack chairs.

It’s expected to be brutally hot all week.

We have a mobile air conditioner in the family room, and fans in the bedrooms.

Maddy’s room has a window-mounted a/c unit..

It’s comfortable now; granted, I have a small fan aimed at me, and I’m shirtless.

Wasn’t doing so well when we arrived.

Think I was overheated and dehydrated.

Feeling a bit better now.

But extremely tired.

Maybe I’ll turn in early tonight.
