Spokane and Coeur D' Alene
Onwards north to Spokane Washington on Sunday and spent the night in Camper World parking lot. On Monday the roof air was replaced and I purchased a surge protector and a new sewer hose. We left the RV there in the morning and drove into downtown Spokane and visited River Park, home of the 1974 World Expo. We took the sky ride over the falls, which was short but provided quite the view. ...

Well, today our plans didn't quite pan out like we wanted. We had thunderstorms with torrential rain from 3a-10a so hiking this morning was definitely out. Instead, we hopped in the car as soon as the rain let up and headed for downtown Cd'A. The downtown area is cute but it is only one row of shops ... that's it. So, we walked around downtown and through the marina then headed ...

Ahhh great... glad to hear your found some 220v fans...
I'm not sure i totally follow the first question... sorry about that... so i'll start with #2, and then come back to that one...
The material itself is a polystyrene insulation board. I used it as the insulation for the walls, floor and ceiling. I had some left over, so i used it to make a duct, or shaft for when the fans are on. The top chamber is generally warmer, and the bottom chamber is generally cooler, so for example, if the bottom chamber was getting a little too cool, the fan on the right hand side would blow the warmer air down the duct so the warm air came into the cool chamber at the bottom and would have a chance to rise. The same goes for the other one on the left to blow the cooler air up and out to the top. They very well may not be needed, but it seemed like a good idea at the time... or you could use actual air duct tubing too... :-)
Ok... now back to question #1.... i'll try and describe a few other things, and if i don't hit what you were asking, just let me know....
So for fans, there are 5 of them. 2 are for the purple boxes. 1 you can see on the right, and 1 you can't see on the left because it's on the ceiling of the lower chamber. The left blows up to cool the top when needed and the right blows down to warm the bottom when needed. The fan on the wall on the left is wired to the ceramic pet heater so that fan runs when the heater is on. That heater is the only heat source for the whole thing. The fan on the very top i think i have just running all the time to circulate the air in side. That was also the plan for the fan on the bottom then that photo was taken, back when i was only planning on 2 chambers. Shortly after that, i added a wall in the middle on the bottom to make 2 chambers on the bottom for 3 total. so i moved the fan on the bottom into the middle wall to transfer cold air from the lower chamber on the left, to the the lower chamber on the right when needed. The big device on the lower left is a window air conditioner that is used as the cooling source for the whole thing. It's hooked up to a CoolBot to fake out the air conditioner without having to rewire it. That thing is awesome! You can do the same thing without it if you know how to rewire it, but i just didn't want to mess with it and it works great. The cold side of my box is currently 35.8*F.
It's all being controlled by 2 Ranco Temp Controller. I used 2 stage Ranco's for heating and cooling... i'm not sure if the one in the link is 1 or 2 stage, but you get the idea.
If i missed anything, just let me know... I have been very happy with how the thing has worked.
Good luck!
Thank you very much for the detailed explanation. I think I understand everything now.
Regarding the Coolbot, I thought it was just a unit which you would plug in to a temp controller and it would handle the cooling. After your email I looked around and see it needs a air conditioner like you have installed. I don't quite get how the coolbot makes it cooler but I will read about it somewhere. I have a large fridge with a freezing box in the bottom and one idea I'm thinking about is having the lower part (where the freezer is) open into the box and have the fridge as the cooling unit. I'm not sure if it would handle it but it's worth the try.
I think the coolbot and the air conditioner would cost too much for me so I'm thinking about using the freezer for the same purpose.
Thanks for the detailed help.
Yea... the downside of going with the CoolBot with window AC for this particular application is definitely the price especially if you have some other options available to you. I was concerned that the compressor on a freezer may not be able to keep up with the demand on a larger area, so i went the CoolBot route, and have been very happy, but yea... Give it a shot with what you have available.
Oh, and yea... reynolds5520's description of how the CoolBot works is spot on. It's a slick little device.
Good luck with your build!

Henriette DeLille
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (October 2007)
|Henriette DeLille
[New Orleans]
Honored in
|Roman Catholic Church
Venerable[1] Henriette DeLille (1813–1862) founded the Catholic order of the Sisters of the Holy Family in New Orleans, which was composed of free women of color. The order provided nursing care and a home for orphans, later establishing schools as well. In 1989 the order formally opened its cause with the Vatican in the canonization of Henriette DeLille. She was declared venerable in 2010.
Early life[edit]
Henriette Delille was born in New Orleans, Louisiana in 1813. Her father Jean-Baptiste Lille Sarpy (var. de Lille) was born about 1758 in Fumel, Lot-et-Garonne, France.[2] Her mother, Marie-Josèphe "Pouponne" Díaz, a free quadroon, was a Creole of color of French, Spanish and African ancestry and born in New Orleans. Their union was a common-law marriage typical of the contemporary plaçage system.[3] Her maternal grandparents were Juan José (var. Jean-Joseph) Díaz, a Spanish merchant, and Henriette (Dubreuil) Laveau, a Créole of color. Her paternal grandparents were Charles Sarpy and Susanne Trenty.[4] Her maternal great-grandmother is said to be Cécile Marthe Basile Dubreuil; she is considered to be a daughter of Claude Villars Dubreuil, born in 1716, who came to Louisiana from France.
Trained by her mother in French literature, music, dancing, and nursing, Henriette was groomed to take her place in the plaçage system as the common-law wife of a wealthy white man. As a young woman, under the watchful eye of her mother, she attended many quadroon balls, a chief element of their social world.
Henriette was drawn instead to a strong religious belief in the teaching of the Catholic Church, and resisted the life her mother suggested. She became an outspoken opponent of the system of plaçage, on the grounds that it represented a violation of the Catholic sacrament of marriage.
In 1827, at the age of 14, the well-educated Henriette began teaching at the local Catholic school. Over the next several years, her devotion to caring for and education of the poor grew, causing conflict with her mother.
The Sisters of the Holy Family[edit]
In 1835, Henriette's mother suffered a nervous breakdown. Later that year, the court declared her incompetent, and granted Henriette control of her assets. After providing for her mother's care, Henriette sold all her remaining property. In 1836 she used the proceeds to found a small unrecognized congregation or order of nuns, the Sisters of the Presentation. The original members consisted of Henriette, seven young Créole women, and a young French woman.
Her brother Jean DeLille was strongly opposed to her activities. He, like other members of their family, could pass for white, as they were octoroons, seven-eighths European or white in ancestry. His sister's actions within the Créole community exposed his ancestry. Estranged from Henriette, Jean DeLille took his family and moved away from New Orleans to a small Créole community in Iberia Parish, Louisiana, called La Côte-aux-Puces, now known as Grand Marais. There Jean DeLille married Amelia Dubreuil-Olivier, the free quadroon daughter of Charles Olivier de Vézin, former major in the French brigades of the Louisiana colony. After Amelia died, he later married Adelaide Dubreuil, a free woman of color from New Orleans.
In 1837, Father Etienne Rousselon secured formal recognition of the new congregation from the Holy See. In 1842, the congregation changed its name to the Sisters of the Holy Family. Henriette DeLille continued a life of service to the poor of New Orleans. She died in 1862. Friends attributed her death to a life of service, poverty, and hard work.
At the time of her death, there were 12 members of the order. By 1909, it had grown to 150 members, and operated parochial schools in New Orleans that served 1,300 students. By 1950, membership in the order peaked at 400.
There is a street in New Orleans called Henriette Delille.
The order today[edit]
The Sisters of the Holy Family remain active today, with over 200 members who serve the poor by operating free schools for children, nursing homes, and retirement homes in New Orleans and Shreveport, Louisiana; Washington, D.C; Galveston, Texas; Little Rock, Arkansas; California; and the Central American country of Belize.
Film treatment[edit]
- In 2001, the Lifetime television channel premiered a movie based on the life of Henriette DeLille, The Courage to Love, which starred Vanessa L. Williams and Gil Bellows.

You know you can get fresh green chard at the Pacific Beach Tuesday Farmers' Market from Maciel Farms, JR Organics, Kawano Farms, Suzie's Farm and Gilbert Quintos. You know it's delicious when sauteed with garlic from Proios Family Farm and a little extra virgin oil from the California Olive. But did you know this? Chard is actually a form of beet; beets are chard that's been selectively bred to produce big, sweet, earthy flavored roots, while chard is beets bred to devote their energy into large, leafy greens. The stems of chard may be naturally green, red, or golden, depending on the variety, but rainbow chard is a man made creation - it's really different types of chard bundled together by the farmer to catch your eye! Check out this yummy chard-ravioli recipe, or pick up Italian eggplants at Suzie's Farm and mushrooms from the Kawano Farm stand to try this Swiss Chard Stuffed Eggplant. Chard's low in calories, high in fiber, and like other leafy green vegetables, can help reduce the risk of both cancer and heart disease as part of a healthy diet, so add something that's good and good for you to your shopping cart - it isn't chard to do!
The Pacific Beach Tuesday Farmers' Market is awash with summer squash in many varieties from your favorite local farms. Kids love flying saucer shaped pattypan squash from Kawano Farms; pick up fresh spinach for this kid-friendly stuffed squash recipe. Eight-ball squash from JR Organics are also super stuffers; fill them with a mixture of Nicolau Farms fresh chevre and diced red peppers and onions from Proios Family Farm. Zucchini from Maciel Farm is great for grilling. Slice it in half lengthwise, brush the cut side with Bistro Blends' Roasted Garlic Chardonnay marinade, then grill and top with grated Peppercorn Dry Jack cheese from Springhill Cheese Company. Stock up on summer squash at the Pacific Beach Tuesday Farmers' Market!
Nothing says summer like crisp, refreshing cucumbers from Maciel Farm, Kawano Farms, J.R. Organics and Suzie's Farm at the Pacific Beach Tuesday Farmers' Market. Cool as the other side of the pillow, fresh cucumbers add crunch to salads and sandwiches, gazpacho and salsas. Need a cool summer drink? Add a few slices of cucumber to your water pitcher, chill over night and be ready for an amazingly refreshing beverage the next day - add a squeeze of fresh lime from Paradise Valley if you like. A cool snack? Mix Springhill Cheese lemon quark with chopped parsley, basil and mint from Suzie's Farm and spread it on freshly sliced cucumbers. Cool soup? Puree cucumbers and fresh dill with a little yogurt for a crowd pleasing chilled number. Try a fresh fruity salad of cucumbers and cantaloupe from Kawano Farms. If you're hankering for homemade pickles, grab dill from Suzie's Farm or J.R. Organics and garlic and hot peppers if you like yours spicy. No time to make your own gazpacho? Pick up a container at One Fresh Meal and you're ready to go. You'd be a kook to miss out on cukes!
Celebrate Independence Day by supporting small family farms and local businesses at the Pacific Beach Tuesday Farmers' Market! Make a red, white and blue salad of red cherries,white peaches and blueberries from Smit Orchards or a slight variation, found here. If you're grilling on the Fourth, there's nothing more American than corn on the cob from Kawano or Maciel Farms. Spring onions from Gilbert Quintos, sweet peppers from Suzie's Farm, and summer squash from JR Organics are also great on the grill. Feeling red, white and bitchin'? Grab some spicy Bitchin' Sauce for a bit of fireworks in your mouth! Don't forget something cool to wash it all down - grab lemons from John Gilruth or Paradise Valley Ranch and honey from Mikolich Family Honey for an all-American lemonade. Happy Birthday America!
The season's first white and yellow peaches from Smit Orchards and Lone Oak Ranch sweeten up the Pacific Beach Farmers' Market this Tuesday. Fresh, juicy peaches are perfect on their own, or sliced and tossed with strawberries from Kawano Farms, blueberries from Smit Orchards and tangelos from John Gilruth.
Peaches are a grill's best friend; if you're firing up the barbecue tonight, start your dinner with this grilled peach and avocado salad with hass avocados from Mexico Lindo. We couldn't believe what grilling adds to peaches and avocados. Grab some early season tomatoes from JR Organics, thyme from Suzie's, fresh goat cheese from Nicolau Farms and citrus balsamic vinaigrette from Bistro Blends for this peach and heirloom tomato salad. For a unique and refreshing summer sipper, pick up lavander from Gilbert Quintos and honey from Mikolich for peach-lavander agua frescas.
Have a little more experience in the kitchen? Finish dinner with a flourish by bringing home pastured eggs from Paradise Valley for this sabayon with balsamic peaches. We'll see you at the Pacific Peach Tuesday Farmers' Market!
Loquats from Rancho Mexico Lindo are occupying prime real estate at the Pacific Beach Tuesday Farmers' Market just a couple of blocks from the ocean. Look for yellow-orange fruits about the size of a small lemon with an aroma of apricot and pineapple. They're most often enjoyed fresh just the way they come off the tree, or sliced into a salad with other fruits like navel oranges from Paradise Valley Ranch, the season's first white peaches from Lone Oak or Fuji apples from Smit Orchards.
Loquats also make great pies and cobblers, on their own or together with other fruits, and you can find more great ways to use them here. Loquat butter, mmmm. A native of Asia, the loquat is related to the apple but it is nicknamed the Japanese plum, probably because its flesh is similar in color and texture to a plum. They have a short life span once picked, so they're not often available in supermarkets; pick them up fresh at the farmers' market instead to enjoy the best loquation in the nation.
Pick up California grown raw, roasted, salted and flavored almonds from Smit Orchards and Hopkins AG at the Pacific Beach Tuesday Farmers' Market. Toss some in your backpack whether you're hiking Cowles Mountain or just taking the stairs to work, stash some in your desk drawer for the mid afternoon munchies, keep them on hand for a healthy snack for hungry kids.
A handful of almonds has almost half the fiber your body needs each day, twenty grams of protein and a healthy dose of monounsaturated fats, the ones that lower levels of harmful cholesterol. With fantastic flavors like Smit's wasabi or orange honey and Hopkins' peppered tomato or Mexican chocolate, there's a perfect almond for everyone in your family.
Sprinkle sliced almonds over stir-fried broccoli and mushrooms from Kawano Farms or a bowl of gazpacho from One Fresh Meal. Go totally nuts and top a dish of almond-based Bitchin Sauce with crunchy crushed almonds - don't forget celery and carrots from JR Organics for dipping. Spread some of Hopkins AG's awesome almond butter on a slice of freshly baked Belen Bakery Date Walnut bread. Crunch on!
Farmer Rodney Kawano is bringing the season's first fresh, sweet summer corn from the Imperial Valley to the Pacific Beach Farmers' Market this Tuesday. Toss a few ears on the grill and slather them with butter from Springhill Cheese Company for a hot summer snack. Slice off the kernels, blend them with a little soup stock and serve chilled for a cool corn soup; garnish with sprigs of fresh basil from Suzie's Farm. Sautee sweet corn in Hot Bistro Oil from Bistro Blends and add a handful of chopped epazote from Gilbert Quintos for a sizzling side dish. Mix corn with cilantro, green onion and Anaheim chiles from JR Organics for a sweet and spicy salsa. Pick up pastured eggs from Paradise Valley and organic cheddar cheese from Springhill for this fantastic corn pudding, or grab avocados from John Gilruth and tomatoes from JR for this avocado and grilled corn salad. Let us know what you like to do with fresh California grown corn, we'd love to hear your suggestions - in fact, we're all ears!
Feeling frail? Eat some kale! You'll find vibrant green, deep red and even bright purple kale from JR organics and Suzie's Farm at the Pacific Beach Tuesday Farmers' Market this week. Red Russian, curly green, black, blue Scotch, Lacinato and Red Monarch are a few of our favorites.
Curly green kale combines beautifully with shaved fennel from Suzie's, olive oil from The California Olive and balsamic vinegar from Bistro Blends, and spinach fettucine from Lisko Imports in this kale and fennel pasta recipe. Bake these tasty, crispy kale chips with Red Monarch kale - they're ideal for dipping in original Bitchin Sauce. Lacinato kale, also known as dinosaur kale (a much more fun name, we think!) is a traditional crop of Tuscany and an essential ingredient in an authentic minestrone. Red Russian kale seems to have a particular affinity for garlic, so sautee it with some as a side dish, or layer it with garlic jack cheese from Springhill Cheese Company and sourdough bread from Belen bakery for a healthy twist on grilled cheese sandwiches.
Speaking of health, there's growing body of evidence that kale is full of particularly potent source of nutrients that reduce the odds of developing several cancers. (But people taking commonly-prescribed blood thinners Warfarin should talk to their doctor before eating large amounts of kale.) A vegetable that's tasty, versatile, and super healthy. That's something to kalebrate!
Nicolau Farms is back at the Pacific Beach Tuesday Farmers' Market with their farmstead fresh chevre. If you've been missing their soft and creamy, tangy, tasty goat cheese lately, you're not alone. Their small herd of goats doesn't make much milk in the winter, so the cheese has been scarce, but with the warmer weather it's back!
For a winning breakfast, spread a generous spoonful of classic chevre over a thick slice of French toast made with Belen Bakery bread and pastured eggs from Paradise Valley Ranch. Top with early-season sliced strawberries from JR Organics or Kawano farms and a drizzle of local honey from Mikolich. Need an easy appetizer that's also delicious? Toss a handful of pitted black olives from Lisko Imports and a hunk of spicy red pepper chevre into a food processor, pulse a couple times and serve up a creamy take on tapenade. If it's a great salad you're craving, mix goat cheese with roasted beets and arrugula from Suzie's Farm, and make a blood orange vinaigrette with with citrus from Gilbert Qintos or Rancho Mexico Lindo and extra virgin oil from the California Olive Oil Company.
Nicolau Farms also has wonderful sun-dried tomato and goat cheese ravioli, which would be perfect with a spinach pesto made with Maciel Farm's spinach. If you saved room for dessert, try a slice of Nicolau's famous goat cheese cake topped with a smear of date jam from Morocco Gold, or one of the delicious goat cheese based Viva Pops that you'll find at the market. Missing out on any of these goat cheese treats would be a baaad idea!

Pick up a locally raised chicken from Da-Le Ranch and cilantro from Suzies Farm for this simply delicious cilantro-lime chicken (made in a slow cooker!) and serve on fresh-made tortillas from Don Tommy's, topped with salsa from Gourmet Tamales, or kick it up a notch by garnishing the dish with these spicy Indian lime pickles.
Use juicy limes and organic butter from Springhill Cheese Company to make these amazing key lime meltaways; garnish them with candied lime peels. Isn't it time you cooked with limes?

There's a touch of autumn in the air at the North Park Thursday Farmers' Market despite the recent warm days. Get in the Fall mood; buy fall squashes like butternut, acorn and spaghetti squash at African Sisters Farm (they are back today after a short hiatus), pick up fresh black eyed peas at Suzie's Farm, and enjoy crisp Gala apples and freshly pressed cider from Smit Farms. Try this butternut squash soup using squashes and apples from the market!
Choose bright red pomegranates from Atkins Nursery (sprinkle them on Ancient Secrets Greek yogurt, found at the Majestic Garlic booth, for a treat) and plump raisins from R&L Farms. J.R. Organics has deep red and bright golden beets that make a great fall salad or give this Beet and Beet Green Gratin a try! Valdivia Farms has late season corn so sweet they call it "peaches and cream." We're sure you'll fall for the flavors of autumn at the North Park Thursday Farmers' Market!
Dig out your blankets, it's time to light the fire and cozy up on the couch with a warm cup of stew made with ingredients found at the North Park Thursday farmers' market.
Fall veggies are plentiful at the market these days. Buy pumpkins and squash at Suzie's Farm to make your favorite comfort recipe. Buy 2-3 persimmons from Atkins Nursery and grab dates from Moroccan Gold Dates so you can try this Sweet Pumpkin Persimmon Soup.
Load up on pork shoulder from Da-Le Ranch for this hearty Rustic Winter Stew or gather root vegetables and make your own soup-er recipe. Not in the mood to cook? One Fresh Meal brings Vegan Black Bean Chili, Roasted Squash Soup and Parsnip and Apple Curry Soup to the market so you can take some home and enjoy it right away. No pots to clean!
The North Park Thursday farmers' market is open rain or shine and we are looking at a dry day to shop this week! Come out and support your local farmers and food purveyors... see you there from 3pm - 7pm!
It must be Fall, because we have been seeing vibrant red pomegranates at the Little Italy Mercato. Look for them at Heritage Farm, Lone Oak Ranch, Fancy Treats Farm and Tom King in the coming weeks. Often called a 'superfood' due to their antioxidant content, pomegranates add a splash of color and a bright, sweet-tart flavor to all sorts of sweet and savory dishes.
Sprinkle the seeds over a cheesecake made with Springhill Cheese Company organic quark, or stir into your Ancient Secrets Greek yogurt in the morning. Cook them together with their juice to make a sauce for roast duck from Da-Le Ranch, or pick up avocados from Paradise Valley Ranch or Gilbert Quintos Farm for pomegranate guacamole.
Fresh pomegranates are in season from now through the end of fall!
