Hi all,
Thanks for organizing another great rally, There are to many individuals to name them all by name for making this such a great event but here are a few: Bob, Mike, Wendy, Betty, Terry, Frank and ...............
Unfortunately we had to leave early this morning because our doctors appointments on Monday. We also are sorry we missed the potluck dinner and are disappointed Betty that our prepared potluck food contributions was not appreciated
At least today I could have used those two grape fruits to quiet down my noisy stumack. This would have been the only food I would have had for the whole day.
We left at 7.30 this morning and arrived home at 7.30 tonight local time. When we came to Bakersfield it was to early to set up camp. So we decided to keep on rolling. We had heavy front winds and the mpg dropped down to 5.9. After Barstow we kept gaining mpg performance and time. In the mean time we remembered that we still had to dump. At the intersection of route 46 and I5 at The KOA Lost Hills we dumped. The KOA is closed and a run down campground. There were only 2 Fith wheels and a guy showed up and collected $ 10.
On the 152 we filled up with fuel. Mimi had her first meal of the day while I cleaned the windows and filled up the fuel tank. It was a a bargain price of $ 3.99 or $ 4.05 cash. What the hell did I do with all the cash I had stacked away? 93 gallons for $ 374.00
At home we quickly unloaded the valuables and I got my first drink of the day besides a glass of ice water while Mimi had dinner at the truck stop.
Well to morrow is unloading and cleaning so for now good night.
