Captains Log September 6 – Happy Labor Day! Hope everyone was off work and grilling out wherever you are!
Since our drive to St. George is really short, I called the RV park to ask if we could get in early and also if we could leave late or park somewhere on the property. Luckily no one was on our site and no one is due in the day we leave.
The panel above the dash, below the cabinets was falling again. We had to repair it about 3-4 years ago. So, I got the towels and decided I needed some thicker screws if I wanted to use the same holes. Bill went to the Lowes just up the road and I went to work taking the old screws out that were no attached and I got out my drill and drilled 2 extra holes to alleviate the weight on the screws. It’s a metal so it took some stamina for me to drill up through the metal but I got it by the time Bill got back. He helped hold the panel up and I put the new screws in and once we cleaned up we were ready to close up the RV and get on the road.
The new park was new! It is out in the desert and laid out very nicely with all pull thru's plenty long. As it turned out there was someone in our spot so they put us in the spot next to it while he finished packing up. Once we got settled we had lunch and just did house chores!
We arrived at Mike and Darlene’s about 4. It’s just a couple of miles on the main road to a turnoff in to a sub-division on the same side of the road as the RV park. It’s great to see them as it’s been 2 years. The guys sat on the couch talking about who knows what and Darlene and I mostly hung in the kitchen and she gave me the grand tour or their new place. It’s a pretty large house and very well laid out. She and I caught up a lot of things and Mike put the burgers on at 6. Dinner was great and Darlene made an excellent potato salad.
After dinner we all visited and talked about their sub-division and a multitude of things. I’m not even sure what time we finally left but we certainly had a great visit.
