Harbinger of Autumn! : 08/13/2026
Yesterday’s change continued with blustery, cool overnight and day which felt like a day in early autumn.
I had windows open all day, no A/C and I think we all reveled in the clear, clean air and cool temperatures. High at the RV park was 69F! And the Air Quality index stayed at 33-34 all day. This is vs a high of 211 at the worst and maybe 120-140 as an average over the past week. Whatever the numbers mean, the breathing was easier.
In the cool, I took the opportunity to do a complete bedding change as well as a bit of overall inside cleaning.
I absolutely love my bedroom in Wild Thing II: aesthetic, light and comfort is top notch. And it is always nice to refresh everything. So nice, we had an after lunch nap :)
Since I had the camera out and since Margaret requested bathroom photos … bathroom photos were missing from my interior shots some posts ago, so here they are.
The bathroom is small and unlike the Winnebago which had shower, sink/vanity, commode separate … we are all in one. The saving grace is that the bathroom door opens and “locks” open making a bit of an en suite. It allows me to use the open hallway to bedroom for drying off after a shower and general bathroom maneuvering.
Commode … I really like this toilet’s operation. It’s downside is that it is VERY low so a bit challenging getting on/off … TMI ?? :)
So … a little tub! And I emphasize little. If at a campground, I “could” have a bath. I have actually used it for foot baths. The challenge is that it is plenty tall, and the shower head I added is wonderful with great pressure … but it is narrow.
I originally tried a shower curtain instead of the accordion thing but the curtain attacks me … the accordion allows the most room. But, it is a bit of mess to keep clean. And it doesn’t look great. I think I’d like to take it off and fix a shower curtain with weights/magnets that stayed in the track. Currently, it is working and I’m thinking.
The sink/vanity … again, very small but functional. Typical of the age of Wild Thing II and size/price point, it is a small “plastic” sink. Not a lot of room for “stuff” around it and it attracts dust/dirt/hair like no one’s business. I think in a small RV, it is silly to have a bathroom sink … no reason not to use kitchen sink and allow a bit more room, but this is what they do.
Ultimately, there is a toilet paper roll, toilet paper storage, other storage under the sink and the cabinet above holds all I need. Bottomline, it is a functional “dry bath” set up and as a solo human it is ok.
The leaves are not changing! They do a great job with landscaping in this RV park. There are a variety of trees and bushes that give shade as well as color. Today, with cool temps and wonderful breeze, it was especially nice to see the color.
Blue sky, clouds, mountains in detail … hard to describe how wonderful it is to have a few days of respite from smoke and heat.
