How Cold Does it Get in Mariposa at Night?
Compared to Wisconsin, where we used to live for most of our life, not very cold. Lots of rain and very little snow.
However, we’re having sticker shock over our first propane heating bill (about $200 for 15 days and on course for double that for the next bill). On the other hand, we are heating about 1,500 square feet as opposed to a 400 square foot RV.

It’s Been About a Month
Since we moved into our Mariposa house, and here’s what we’ve been doing . . .
*** WARNING: Incredibly Domestic Material Follows. ***
REPLACED A BATHROOM SHOWER LIGHT
Seriously, reach up in the shower and zzzzap!
PUT UP OUR WEATHER STATION
PUT UP A HUGE TV
HAD OUR FURNACE REPAIRED ONE COLD NIGHT
It was night. Our furnace wouldn’t start. It was getting colder and colder.
DISCOVERED LOTS OF WALKING TRAILS
INSTALLED A KITCHEN TV
INSTALLED A PULL UP / PULL DOWN CELLULAR BLINDS
We just ordered one to see if we like it. We do. Ordered three more blinds for the living room.
TRASHED A NEW WALL OVEN
Actually, the shippers damaged the oven, not us. The top control panel should be straight up, not bent back, and not shattered either. We got our money refunded. Next stop, Lowes.
DEMOLISHED THE SHED
Our big, ugly backyard 8′ x 10′ metal shed that was blocking what little light we get . . .
THAT DOGGIE IN THE WINDOW

They Sang to Us!
Tomorrow will be our 3-week anniversary in Mariposa. We’ll have an update soon of what we’ve been up to, but we had to post this video. Magic. Pure magic.
