We had another very warm day but this time with high winds blowing out of the south-east. After some brief shopping I went out to our trailer to get the fridge started. The plan was to have it cold and ready for our moving tomorrow. Also I wanted to connect the solar panel to my batteries. For that I had taken a ladder along to get on the roof. As soon as I entered the roof and connected the power cable I heard a big bang. Turning around I saw my ladder on the ground – flat on the ground that is. A storm cast had blown it over. I looked around – but there was nobody to help me getting the ladder back up. Several times I considered to jump, but it seemed too dangerous. So then I pulled out my phone and called the site owner who was somewhere else on the large property. But he was busy with a customer and it took about 15 minutes until someone else popped up. Sitting on that roof was a bit hilarious for me. Had enough opportunity to contemplate things. The wind was indeed so strong that the entire area looked more like a dust storm around Yuma,AZ. It was pretty bad. With the fridge running on propane I left for home. Tomorrow we will leave this great place where we have been very comfortable most of this winter. |

Well that was a fine how do you do. Glad you weren't up there longer than you were. Sill made me smile though while I was reading it to Joe.
ReplyDeleteGood thing that there was someone close by and that you had your cell phone, you could have been up there a very long time.
ReplyDeleteI am betting next time you will have a rope on the ladder with the end with you all the time:)
