Lots of Things to Like on Thursday #166

 I have been MIA the past couple of weeks.  Working a lot, traveling to see my family, and back to work and I added a teenager.  Lots of things to like and love which I will share through several weeks. 

The first couple of hot days we had in June I held out turning the A/C on, but when I finally said uncle....nothing....nada.....sigh.  I didn't want to pay for the A/C repairman to come so I decided to hold out until I get home.  Upon arriving home on Monday the 5th the temperature was in the 90's early.  I decided to try my hand at repair.  I remember the last time the repairman came he showed me where the fuse box for the A/C was, and how it worked.  He told me if it quit working the first thing I should do is check the fuses.  These are Buss fuses.  

I opened the fuse box and pulled these out.  

I needed to clean it out too since many bugs seemed to have taken up residence.  I ran to the local hardware store, and bought 2 new fuses.  Came home, put the fuses in and viola'!  I had A/C.  I was so stinkin' proud of myself!  I fixed it!

I love my little travel companion.  

Except for this trip she was much more demanding with the heat.  If it got above 85 she started panting, and practically demanded the A/C on.  I think next trip I will get some of those window shades for the side window. 

Bobbin was also not always happy with the pet accommodations in some states.

 I don't know if you see it, but it says rattlesnakes are native to this area.  In Nevada it was usually a dirt and rock packed area, and one sign actually warned of rattlesnakes, and scorpions.  

We camped one night since we could not find a motel.  We found a campground near a rest area.  We car camped.  It was a nice spot.

Except for this sign on the picnic table. 

I love this little tree frog that was in a bathroom in Northern California.  The tile was about 2 inches square so you can tell how big it was.

I am not too sure if I have shared this before, but this is the road to where Jeff is buried in my family cemetery.  

It is not easy to tell it, but this road is just a wee bit wider than my car.  On the right side of the car the drop off goes to the river and it is at least a 50-100 foot. 

I finished a quilt top finally.

I am very pleased with how it turned out.  Now to choose the next UFO to finish up.

Now head over to LeeAnna's at Not Afraid of Color and check out the other I like Thursday posts.
