I woke up about 8:15 and played games for about half an hour. Then it was up for pet stuff and breakfast. I didn't want to go anywhere because the truck is about to regen. Also, Ellen was still coughing and sniffling. We surfed for a while, but eventually we needed to go out for drugs, groceries, and fuel.
We went to Walgreen's to get Ellen some drugs. They said that it would take "a day or two" to transfer the prescription. Crap. CVS does it immediately. Fortunately she has enough to last until we get to Salem. Then we went to Albertson's and go some groceries. We'll be spending the next week in the hinterlands.
The final sop was fuel. When we drove in a brand new Denali SUV pulled in behind us. The driver beckoned me over. Like an idiot I went. He we from the middle east. His wife next to him had on traditional brightly colored dress. He had on several heavy gold chains and rings.
His story was he'd forgotten his wallet. He wanted to offer me a "gold" ring if I would pay to fill his tank. The ring was obviously fake. I said thank you and walked away. He immediately left. I filled up and we went home. I sill have a couple of percent before the regen starts.
We spent the rest of the afternoon on surfing, TV, and naps. Ellen fixed steak for dinner. After dinner it was more surfing and TV.
