Got word from Laura that the part I need for the Jeep is legitimately expensive and necessary. Once it is fixed, I really hope this is the last of the issues til I get to California and then some. That said, I have decided to cut my trip short and just head from here straight to San Diego. Between the financial aspect and the fact that both me and Lola are both stressed out and tired, I think it is the best way to go for now. I can always take time later to take a trip north up the coast to Oregon, etc. I also think that once I get settled into a new home down there, I will downsize to a smaller camper that is more manageable for shorter jaunts.
Martha, am thinking of you and Harold. Please take time for yourself when you can and get help for Harold when needed. You will be able to take better care of him if you take care of yourself too. It is a big change for both of you.
The only thing I have to do today is laundry. Not much else to do around here. Last night I had to run my fan (on the AC) all night to drown out the sound of the trains next to here. I have a freeway on one side and a train track on the other side. The trains blow their horn when coming thru here and are very frequent. They also stop, change tracks, hitch and unhitch engines, etc, so there is a lot of banging, booming, etc. The fan luckily drowned all that out. The freeway noise doesn't bother me tho. Otherwise it is a nice campground.
I will have to start cooking in here since I can't eat out this week! I have lots of food but it has just been easier to eat out altho, with all the stress, I haven't been very hungry.
Hope you all have a good day!
, ok so we're all waiting for pics and more info . Hope Linda's doing well.
