I haven’t had pain medication since yesterday afternoon, and I’ve had no pain most of the day. My ankle is a bit sore this evening, but I’m icing it. I’ve been much more alert today.

Mark’s birthday
Traditionally, we have gone to Tombstone for Mark’s birthday, but yesterday (Friday the 14th) the weather was unseasonably cold. The report said it would be snowy in Tombstone, so we decided to do some indoor things here in Tucson. I put together a treasure map for Mark.

Yesterday I posted a blog about the weather here in Tucson vs the weather in southern Oregon. I asked if you had pictures of your weather last week or could at least tell me what it was like…

Mark and I were eager to get out of the RV park at the casino this morning. I don’t think this was the case when we were there many years ago, but there were prickly things about the size of pea gravel all over the ground. If we went out with our shoes on, the shoe soles would be covered in them when we got back to the RV. We would try to clean off the soles of our shoes and still, some would get tracked into the RV, and if we stepped on them with bare feet, it was very painful. When Mark had to take Tucson out to do her thing, she would be limping before walking very far. I’m sure that the Grand Sierra Resort is a great place to stay if you’re in the hotel, but I don’t recommend it if you have pets in the RV parking lot.

Today I dressed a little cooler than I did yesterday, and wouldn’t you know it, it was only in the 70’s! We also got a little later start this morning than we did yesterday, but fortunately, my sister reminded me that we don’t have to be in Oregon until Wednesday. We were thinking of pushing to get there tomorrow.
