2708 to Go . . .
I spent the morning mapping out the rest of our travel year, or at least the part that ends up with us back at the Colorado River TT starting the 14th of August. We’ll be there for two weeks around the time of Landon’s birthday party on the 22nd, plus Jan has a follow-up doctor’s appointment on the 21st. No problem, just a regular checkup for her breast cancer last year. Then, after that, we don’t know yet. But we’ve got 2708 miles to go until we get there.
The only question mark for the trip are the two weeks from July 20th to August 2nd. We’re trying to decide on staying at the Cherokee Landing TT or Natchez Trace TT, both in Tennessee. The recommendations seem to lean toward Cherokee Landing, but we’re still thinking about it.
Some people have said to stay a week at both, and we may end up doing this, But part of me just wants to park for two weeks and kick back. So we’ll have to see.
About 6:30 we had our first real rain since we go here two weeks ago. We’ve had a couple of little showers a few nights, but nothing worthwhile. But the storms moved in tonight and it just poured, heavy enough to knock out our DirecTV for almost an hour
We’re also supposed to more thunderstorms over the next couple of days, and in fact, the high temp of Sunday is only supposed to be 95 degrees
Yeah, right. It gets cool just as we’re ready to leave.
Tomorrow we’re going to have lunch at La Fonda, then go into Cottonwood to Hog Wild BBQ to pick up some to take with us when we leave here on Monday. Sunday we’ll have dinner at Crusty’s Pizza down in Camp Verde, and while we’re there, we’ll pick up a couple of their Baked Spaghettis dinners to take with us. We’ll cut them in half, vacuum-seal them, and freeze them, again for later. Each one is big enough that half makes a meal for each of us.
