RV Life with DAISEE2 #174 Wednesday, August 12, 2026.

I have made it to Canyon Point near Payson today. Here is the sign:

These are the fees:  I got it half off because of the America The Beautiful Pass:  It took me 3 hours to get here.

I was having trouble with my STARLINK, and I had to reconfigure it even though it worked when I first put it out.  It was showing just “STARLINK” and I was able to rename it DAISEE2 with Metaxa123456! as the password.  I hope it will work all weekend.  I got the WAGGLE camera to work too.  There is a woman beside me in a Class B who is all alone and I think she may be interested in joining us.  I put the FLAG out and she asked about it.  Time will tell!  Look how level I am!  Very happy!

Shannon came in with her new truck and old trailer. We got her in her site in about 15 minutes. The man across from her did most of the work. But she is set and level too!

These were my temperatures when I got here at 11:30:

It is thundering now so I think it will rain soon. The couple down the way from me says it’s been raining ALOT! My site is pretty wet. I did put out my table cloth and seat covers:

The temps are 77 out, 75 in and it’s 4:15. Can’t wait to see how chilly it gets tonight when it’s bedtime. I have all of the windows open now. The campground is pretty quiet. This is my site with the RVW FLAG out: you can see how wet it is. Hiking may be difficult because of the rain. Kayaking may be in order instead. We’ll see.

WAGGLE connected very easily even though I don’t have Metaxa here any longer, I will still keep this camera so when we go with the baby kitties we’ll have it. I did find out from ChatGPT that the Waggle does color or black and white depending on how much light there is in the rig. It’s mostly dark in here at home so that is why it’s black and white. Here we are IN COLOR!

I’m right across from the water and the vault toilet. I like that. They were pretty clean last time. The flush toilets and showers aren’t all that clean, and you need coins for the water. They gave us 3 when we checked in. Not sure how to get more. I quickly read it and it looks like it’s CASH ONLY $7.00. The coins give you 10 minutes. I should have enough for a shower with 3 if I decide to take one. More will be revealed. It just started raining. SOUNDS SO COOL!!

These mushrooms are right by my site. I thought they were fake – you know clay or something, but they are REAL – so cool!

  • ChatGPT says they are fly agaric mushrooms.  They are toxic but very pretty.  They are common during monsoon season on the Mogollon Rim.  This is how high we are:

My new fridge minder is working great. SO HAPPY – it wasn’t working when I left but now it seems to be fine. I’m going to go turn off the propane soon – between showers. I have electric and it will keep the fridge cold.

We were here in June of 2024. We went out to dinner as a group;

Cindy was our leader – facilitator – that is me this time:

Marie tried to use the picture of Cindy for the Alert but it was too big. I thought it was cute!

We got a rainbow tonight!

I have a better picture of it:
