Day 3076

 I woke up about 4:30 and turned over to go back to sleep.  I woke up about every hour until 7:30 and did the same thing.  Then it was up for breakfast.  After that it was time to hook up the trailer.  All of that went fine.

As expected a regen started about 30 miles into the trip.  What wasn't expected was the attack of diarrhea that I suffered about 12 miles into the regen.  There weren't any exits, so I had to pull off on the shoulder and take a shit in the trailer.   The regen restarted but it didn't finish well.  The end ash level was 36%.

We drove another half hour and the diarrhea started acting up again.  This time there was a truck stop to stop at.  I pulled into their dirt parking lot.  It had huge pot holes that I hadn't seen.  The trailer legs scraped twice before I could escape it.  I parked on the pavement and took another shit.  After that y asshole quit giving me trouble.

The rest of the trip went fine.  Melissa called and we had a long conversation with her.  We got to the park a little after noon.  That's because we gained another hour because Arizona doesn't believe in DST.

We unhooked without drama and fed the pets.  Then we went to In-n-Out for lunch.  After that we went to Wally World and bought another weather radio.  The one we had in the trailer is too hard to use. 

Fuel here is $4/gal.  We used 25 gallons (11 mpg) on the way here.  It was $100 to fill up.  Fuck Biden.

We went home.  Ellen did the wash and I hid out in the trailer.  It was 92 degrees.  I surfed for a while and then switched to videos.

The Bronco guy sent me an email.  Dan picked up the Bronco today.

Abby is really dragging her ass.  She doesn't understand why she is feeling so crappy.  It hasn't hurt her appetite though.

The park is re-modelling the showers.  That means that we have to shower in the trailer.  That's a pain because we hang the wet clothes there.  Also it means I'll have to drain the tanks before we leave.   I was going to wait until Mesa to do that.  I think that they should give us a discount.

Dinner was frozen followed by more videos.  Tomorrow we'll go shooting.
