Home

We headed for home this morning. I was hoping to stay at least a night at the RV park to kind of recover from the hectic show, but John wanted to head for home and not set up the trailer again. Here's Green Valley at dawn as we were hooking up the trailer.

We stopped at the Desert Diamond Casino for breakfast, but found all the restaurants were closed, the only place we could find open was a grill inside the casino and we had a mediocre breakfast there. It was a cool looking place, loved the fountain.

Charles was going to meet us there, but since it was so early when we finished breakfast and it was too smoky inside the casino to look around we called him and arraigned to meet at a shopping center just outside Tucson. Good thing we did, his brakes were having a problem and I wouldn't have wanted him to drive all the way to the casino to meet us! The distance markers on I 19 between Tucson and Green Valley are all metric, it feels like I'm in a foreign country!

We visited a Best Buy just for fun and Nikki had fun playing on an apple computer and creating these:

We had a good visit, too short, but good, then we headed for home and Charles headed to Checker Auto Parts to buy new brake shoes. We stopped for lunch at a DQ in Picacho, a short restroom break and made it home just before dark. Exhausted tonight.

Talked to Charles and Nikki, he got the new brake shoes installed and his pickup is sounding and braking much better now! Yea!
