We Forgot

Adventure Location: Rockport, TX

According to his records the OFM got over his bad cold eight days ago. Then why is he still hacking and coughing fairly frequently? That was his concern as he sat next to the dining room window this afternoon. Yep is was certainly wet inside and outside.-------- inside. Why is it wet inside????



All the water on that window is inside the Castle. He suddenly realized he had been noticing more and more water inside the Castle on the aluminum window frames. Why this year????? Just think of all the mold and mildew that is lingering inside!
KABLAMMMMMM The thought hit him upside the head like a sledge hammer. Where is the dehumidifier we normally, since 2007, have had running? OHH YEH we got rid of it after last winter. The winter of 2007/2008 taught us that at dehumidifier is needed when this close to the coast.

Since the solution had been identified, it was action time. The Rockport Walmart was out of smaller de-humidifiers so off to Aransas Pass Walmart we headed. They had the next to smallest model in stock. The OFM grabbed one and away we went. Back at the Castle the dehumidifier was quickly unpacked and put to work.


It has been a bit over two hours now and the Teams can really feel the difference. Why did we forget? We can only guess it is old age senility. Having drier air to breath will definitely enhance our ability for trying to have tooooo much fun.
