Day 3222

 I woke up about 7:45 and got up to feed the pets and let the dog out.  Then it was back to bed fora little while. Eventually I got up and had breakfast.

After breakfast I went outside to the shed.  I put new filters on the shop vac.  Then I took it out to the car port and connected the extension cord from the shed.  I told Ellen that the car cleaning stuff was ready and then started to get the trailer washing stuff out.

The new foamer for the wash and wax is great.  It made it easy to cover the trailer with foam.  It also used a lot less of the wash and wax.  It was still a lot of work to clean the rest of the trailer.  The two slideouts made the street side a pain and the front overhang of the trailer is a wet job.  I finished up just as Ellen finished the car interior.  Then she got the dog ready while I put everything away.

We left for Abby's walk at 10:30, pretty good time.  I wanted to get the trailer done before it started raining and I did.  We stopped at the clubhouse.  I told Dave when we were leaving and got the new gate code.  There were people shooting by then, so we only made it halfway around the course.  It started to sprinkle lightly just as we walked back to the trailer.

It was starting to rain more as we got in the car for errands.  We went to the pet store for dog food and Lowe's for Stabil and a new car wash pole.  The old one broke today.  That's OK, it was probably 15 years old at least.  Lowe's didn't have a pole.  Oh well.  We also stopped at DQ for lunch and Jone's Farm for pears.

By the time we got home it was raining hard.  I started to drain the tanks and retired to the trailer to watch videos.  That turned out to be expensive.  I ended up buying a short wave radio for $250.  I hope to listen to it on the trip.

It rained pretty hard until 7.  Dave used the opportunity to light the burn pile.  By 7:30 the sky was partly cloudy and we had to close the blinds to watch TV.

Hooch texted.  We'll go to his place tomorrow afternoon.
