Saturday 4-20 Easter Egg Hunt

Just having fun

We had a outstanding day of sunshine and no wind. 

This morning we went to town so Larry could get the new Smart Door Lock re-keyed to match the rest of our doors. I waited in the car and I was surprised to see how busy the drive through was at the Mexican restaurant next door. There was a steady flow of cars.

Every third Saturday of the month Belton has Belton Market Days, vendors put up booths and sell their wares and food. While we were in town we decided to walk through Belton Market Days. There were a lot more vendors than normal and a lot of people walking around.

This morning the City of Belton had an Easter Egg Hunt for the children. The hunt had a great turn out. After the hunt there were a couple of people dressed up as an Easter Bunny and mothers were getting their childrens pictures taken with them. Some of the little girls were dressed up for Easter. The Easter Egg Hunt was probably why it was so busy. It was great to see everyone having fun.

The new Smart Door Lock has a solar panel to keep the batteries charged so it needs to get some sun. In the afternoon Larry moved the push button door lock from the front door to the garage door. Then he installed the Smart Door Lock on the front door. After installing it he had to watch a short video on how to program the lock. You can lock and unlock it three different ways, via your smart phone, via Alexa or by the keypad. The keypad has a cover with the solar panel mounted on it. the cover is a bit difficult to slide up but it has to be kept closed for the solar panel to charge the battery. The lock looks very nice and works great.

While Larry was doing this I did a little laundry. Well, I attempted to do laundry. I washed two loads and dried one. I started the second load in the dryer when the dryer stopped with a bang. The dryer just stopped turning. Larry got the owners manual out and started to trouble shoot the problem. When he couldn't figure the problem out he went to YouTube and watched a couple of videos. He ended up disassembling the dryer and found a pulley had failed, apparently this is a common problem with this dryer. He found the parts on Amazon, they should be here Monday. So I'll be back in business in a few days.
