Day 3100

 The alarm woke us up at 7.  After breakfast it was hook up and leave.  We left about 8.

Overall the trip was nice.  We made 11.5 mpg and beat the par arrival time by 9 minutes (we got to the club at 11).  The only bad parts was a 20 mile stretch following a slow truck and the nasty curves in the road coming down from the summit.  I'd forgotten about them.

It wasn't raining when we got to the club.  Yeah.  Setting up was more work than usual.  I needed to put the tire covers on.  I also had to string the new water hose.  Hooking it up to the hose carrier and unraveling it was a pain.  We also had to clean up the car port a little.  For some reason everything was in disarray.

After the trailer was finished it was time to do the other "arrival" things.  I unloaded the back of the truck and took the cover off the car.  It seemed to be OK and started right up.  I put the cover away  and put the old water hoses in the back of the car.

I drove to the clubhouse and put the hoses in the dumpster.  We spent a few minutes saying hi to everyone and then left to pick up the mail.  There wasn't as much as I expected.  The big disappointment was that a couple of Amazon purchases that should have been there weren't.  That means I won't get them for three days.  We went to Woodburn for fuel and lunch.  Then we stopped at Baumann's on the way back. They had strawberries.  Yeah.

We stopped at the club for a short time and then went back to the trailer.  I sat down to videos.  That quickly turned into a nap.

When we woke up Ellen took Abby outside without a lead.  I had hopped that she would obey us without a lead or collar.  Not so.  She ran to the clubhouse to play with dogs and beg for food.  She walked all the way back on two legs.  When she got back we made her lay in her bed.  There was no treat either.

The rest of the evening was videos and a early bed time.
