Time to try this again....Randy woke me up at 6:30 this morning, to get ready to go get the tire fixed. He's letting me sleep in, compared to the recent 4:30 and 3:00 wake-up calls! The tire place is about a mile from the RV park so we got there by 7 am. They checked and aired the tire, put it back on, removed all the valve stem extenders, and we left by 8:30.
It's about 300 miles between Las Vegas and Vista. To our surprise we didn't run into any construction or traffic back-ups. Usually we take a few breaks along the way but this time we were afraid of missing the "no-backup" window of opportunity. So we only stopped for fuel and cruised on into Vista at 2:30.
Then we found that our spot was already occupied! Cousin Jack is at the Museum for a week and his view is that he has had dibs on that particular spot for the last two months. Since he was already parked there, he won. We moved to another area that is not used for parking, although it has water and electrical hookups. Surprise, surprise - the electric box has no place to plug in. Randy took a quick trip to the hardware store with Dan, got the right stuff, and created a plug-in. He gets to create plug-ins a lot - he's already done it at Mom's and at Jack's!
We settled in, then joined Dan and Ashley, plus Jack, for Randy's 50/50 burgers and Dan's grilled corn-on-the-cob. It's good to be back!
