Lowe's

We started out to walk around the park, but it was chilly and windy. At Bentsen Palm Village we used to go to the exercise room and walk on the treadmills, but Green Gate Grove has no exercise room. Another option we've used is to walk around a mall or large store. We decided to go walk at Lowe's. We wanted to go there to check out wardrobes and propane grills.

Our plan worked well, especially in the building supplies end of the store, where the aisles are wide and there are fewer customers. The only difficulty is that I have to restrain myself from stopping to look at things. After we walked around Lowe's we went to Home Depot and then on to Walmart, all good places to walk around.

When we got home, we noticed it was chilly. We had run out of propane in the outer tank. Ken turned on the inner tank, and the water heater started up easily, as did the stove. The furnaces refused to come on. After a bit we remembered to try removing the fuse from the thermostat. That worked like a charm.
