I woke up at 7:30, played games, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast. After that it was surfing. We only had 64 miles to go today and checkin time was 1:00.
About 10:30 we started to hook up. Everything went smoothly except connecting the trailer. For some reason I'm having trouble with doing it this year. My first attempt failed because the hitch didn't fully latch. Fortunately I could pull the release and drive forward. I changed the height of the trailer and connected the second time.
We got on the road a little after 11. The trip was uneventful until the last 3 miles. They are totally rebuilding the stretch of I10 that parallels the park. The exits we use don't exist. We had to drive further towards town and the double back. We had to drive farther east than necessary because some of the cross streets were blocked. Eventually we got to the park. Event the road leading to the park is messed up by construction.
Everything went pretty well after that. We unhooked. Then I fed the animals while Ellen got the wash ready. I drove everything over to the laundromat. I ordered a gun case and a tire inflater from Amazon. The one I have won't inflate to 120 psi.
That was the end of anything useful today. I spent the rest of the afternoon and evening on-line shopping, watching videos, and napping.
I found a RC store in town. I'm sure that we'll get there. I think that we'll probably go shoot tomorrow.
