Default Goin to find some cold water

End of summer with no real trips so we are gonna go up to NC to Deep
Creek near Boone for some whitewater tubing. Camper is still about
two weeks from completion so will be using the tent (this is tent #4
and is almost worn out).

You could do some whitewater tubing at WDW in Orlando, and stay in a
nice, well-furnished room with a full bath at night, cheapskate.

You're a funny guy. If it weren't for the touristas in Florida, the
entire state would have dried up and blown away years ago, and you'd be
floating one of those doggy boats of yours up a dry creek, paddle
unnecessary.

I take a trip up that way once or twice a year. I like going to Flat
Rock/Hendersonville area. If you are going up I-85 from GA into SC,
there's a really nice ride on a little state road going up into the
mountains. It's state route 11, the first exit in SC after crossing Lake
Hartwell.

My wife is taking me to California and I hear the water in Tahoe is
pretty cold. I don't plan on jumping in anyway.


I experienced some cold water this evening.

the water heater in the garage quit last week so until I get a new
heating element, after work showers are a bit nippy.

I bought one of those tankless water heaters and still have it in the
box. It's tiny and mounts on the wall so I will gain some space in the
garage. My conventional unit is 12 years old and could die any day.
The problem is the wiring. I have to get a nice, non-union, electrician
to run some fat wires about 15 feet to run it. I don't mess with
anything above 120V.

a contributor here in reek.boats and I were talking about those a few
days ago.

His is operated with gas, though.

I'm investigating the on-demand heaters though. sounds better than
cooking water 24/7
