Rest up day
Today I planned to hang around the van at camp in Queen Canyon on the Kofa.
I started out giving myself a haircut.![]()
After a break I checked the van’s engine fluids. ![]()
I added a bit of coolant to the radiator and the oil was fine.![]()
Checked out the noisy shock
Then I got some other tools out and checked out the shock that had a loose mount on the way in to see just how bad it was.
Here’s the bad shock covered in oil as it’s leaking.![]()
Personally I think this shock is a bit too long in the body and may be hitting.![]()
Here’s the bottom mount bolt that I tightened on the way in the other day. The rubbers don’t look good so I’m gong to take it apart to check it out.![]()
This rubber bushing doesn’t look good, but it’s the only one I have so I’ll have to put it back on for now.![]()
I put all the shock stuff back together as it will work for now.
Making bread dough
After cleaning up and taking a break I decided to make some bread type dough. I’ve had some flour and water making yeast for over a week now and it looks like it might work for bread so I used it in this dough.![]()
I used coconut oil to fry them up in my wok.![]()
I put the big rolls aside as I have plans for them. I ate all the little pieces which were good and the homemade yeast did well.![]()
I took it mostly easy the rest of the day doing some reading and watching this little guy checking my camp site for anything edible.![]()
Jelly rolls
Later in the evening I put my jelly rolls together. This is what happened to the rolls I made earlier today. I was saving some black berry jam Dominique gave me for Christmas for this. Yummmmmmmmmmmmm.![]()
That was my day.
