I had COVID-19 and was off work all last week, so I was a little bit weak when I started back to work at the Welcome Center yesterday. Today was my day to work at the Noble House and it was raining, so there were two possibilities for how my day might go. It could either be quiet because no one was out in the rain, or it could be busy because everyone wanted to do something indoors. I was hoping it would be quiet.

One more day on the road after this and we’ll be home! Mark can’t wait to get back to his Harley and BACA. I can’t wait to get back to more spacious living!

This morning at the Walmart we were parked at overnight, Mark took Tucson out to do her thing. When he came into the RV, he brought me something he had found on a tree nearby…

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.

When Mark had to take Tucson out to do her thing, she would be limping before walking very far.

We were thinking of pushing to get there tomorrow.

Last night, Mark and I invited our neighbor, Kiki, to a campfire as a last hurrah.

Mark had to have a procedure done at the VA hospital this morning. As we were walking into the building, I noticed a sign that pointed to a rose garden, so when they sent me away, I went looking for it.

Maybe the last time
Elaine had made arrangements to visit her sisters in Dallas, Oregon for lunch today and I told her I’d sit with Dad so she could go. It was four hours that I got to spend with Dad, perhaps for the last time since I’m flying back to Tucson tomorrow.
