Back Home . . .
As great as sleeping in late in our own bed for the first time in 5 days was, Jan still woke up with a migraine. Of course, taking her Sumatriptan damps the migraine down fairly quickly, but she’ll still feel kind of washed out the rest of the day.
And then of course, there may be the 2nd and 3rd day rebound headaches. We’ll see how it goes.
In the latest example of extreme global warming, the high here in Elkhart today was 74 with an expected low tonight of 53, and tomorrow, 71/47. And that goes on for next several days.
Because it was so nice, Mister spent most of the afternoon outside sitting in one our chairs. He’ll stay out for several hours and then come and bang on the screen door. When we let him in, he’ll visit the litter box, grab a snack and some water, and then bang on the screen to be let out again.
Smart Cat.
About 4:30 we all headed out for one last visit to Flipping Cow, our new favorite burger place here in Elkhart.
I debated having the Hunka Hunka Burger Love this time. It has two steak burger patties, peanut butter, jalapeno jelly, smoked bacon, and pepper jack cheese on a toasted pretzel bun, but I ended up going with the same one I got last time, The Stella Moo.
It has two steak burger patties topped with smoked beef brisket, jalapeno bacon, onion straws, pepper jack cheese, and Alehouse BBQ sauce on a toasted wheat brioche bun. Then I added tomatoes, jalapenos, spicy mayo, and sweet heat pickles, And this time I got the ‘Cow Chips’ instead of Fries.
It’s easy to see (and taste) why this burger was voted the best burger in Elkhart County, and is one of two finalist for the best burger in the Michiana area. I know which one got my vote.
We had talked about making a DQ run after dinner, but everyone was too full of burgers, so we put it off for another time.

Thought for the Day:
The CEO of Target recently asked customers to not bring guns into Target stores.
So you name your store ‘Target’ and you don’t like guns?
How’s that work?

After the continental breakfast at the motel, I was at the windshield repair place at 8am to hand over the gasket that Jan and I picked up from American Coach yesterday afternoon. Then I headed back to the motel for a few hours, since it was more comfortable there. About 11 we checked out from the motel, and Jan and I loaded up the truck with all our motel stuff and headed over to the repair shop to wait for our rig.
When we got there they had the the driver’s side glass installed and were working on the new glass on the passenger side.
While we were waiting, we read our Kindles in the nice air-conditioned truck, rather than stay inside the hot rig.
Mister, of course, had his own way of dealing with the wait.
Josh said that, unlike the generic gasket that was too loose, this one was very tight, and they had to really struggle to get the glass in, especially the second one. He said a couple of times they were afraid they were going to break it trying to get the gasket over the edge.
After that, we just had to wait a while for the urethane sealant to set up for a while before we finally headed back to our spot at the Elkhart Campground about 3:30.
So we went from this,

to this.
And in only FIVE Days.
After we got mostly set up, we headed out to Mancino’s Pizza with Nick and Terry, for what is probably our last visit this year.
Tomorrow will definitely be a sleep-in morning after all these days of getting up at 7am.
