Awake: 6:20am Temp 64 sleep 6+12 sunny overcast sky
overnight @ Maple Grove, MN.
This 1st official day of summer is off to a great start here in Minnesota,
it’s beautiful this morning. We leave the KOA of Maple Grove @ 9:49am. A
lot of fast moving traffic on I-94 …..I-494…..& I-35W. A mere 40 min
later, we are out of the city & looking @ farm country again. Kathy has
the sleepies today but does an excellent job of selecting good music,
weather information + news & providing my ½ flat bread sandwich to snack
on while I drive. We make (1) comfort stop en route, arriving @ the main
parking area of HWH Corporation near Moscow, Iowa @ 4:50pm.
Today’s travel: 7:08 time 385.4 miles 42.3 gal 9.12 mpg
56.1 avg speed.
The HWH Company specializes in making the leveling systems & slide-out
mechanisms, all hydraulic, for many different models & makes of motor
homes. Our motorhome uses the HWH system & so far, all is well. I have
very little information on these systems in my files & have been wanting
to learn more…..thus the reason for this visit. They have 10 parking sites
with electric only for people like us.
While Kathy prepares dinner, I take a casual walk thru (1) of (4) large
buildings that make up the HWH Corporation, but I don’t really know what I
am looking at. Since we arrived just as the day shift was shutting down,
we’ll go to the office & introduce ourselves tomorrow. They are running
(2) working shifts but the evening shift is a fraction of the day shift as
witnessed by the number of cars.
7:20pm dinner: Tuna steaks, brown & wild rice, broccoli with roasted red
pepper & toast.
Evening time: Watch some news & miscellaneous programs via satellite.
High today=81 Lights out: 11:30pm
