Day 2342

 I woke up at 7:30.  I had a terrible night.  My back woke me up in pain any time I moved.  At 7:30 I just gave up trying to sleep.  I played games for a while and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  I didn't want to leave until 9 to escape traffic.  We killed some time surfing and started to pack up at 8:30.

We were on the road a little after 9.  Traffic out of San Antonio wasn't bad.  There was a wait for the construction on 281, but it wasn't as long as when we came in last week.  Once we were past that it was clear sailing.  Most of the time the road was either 4 lanes, or two lanes with frequent passing lanes.

The route has a lot of little towns on it.  Of course we had to slow down for those.  They didn't slow us down much.  We arrived 6 minutes later than Google's estimate.

One thing happened that had never happened before.  The cats shit and pissed in the truck.  One of them shit on the console right beside me.  I road for 100 miles before I noticed.

Mileage was low - 8.7.  Part of that was a regen and part was a head wind.  At least the regen did well.  It reduced the ash to 9%.

We got to the park about 1:30.  We set up and then went out to explore and get fuel.  We drove through some small (pop < 500) towns just to look at them.  It's sad to see that they were once bustling places.  We filled up ($150 for 30 gallons).  Fuck Biden.  We also found a couple of interesting restaurants and a museum to go to.

We went back home and did some surfing.  My back continues to cause me great pain.  I ended up in the recliner.  Of course I went to sleep.

We were going to eat out, but my back was too painful.  Ellen fixed sausage and pancakes instead.

I'm going to hit the pain pills tonight.  I need to get a good night's sleep.
