Awake: 6:30am Temp 35 sleep 6+00 sunny overnight @ Newell campsite.
We go outside early & say our goodbyes to “BIG JOHN” & Karen from
Puyallup, WA. + Rod & Mary from Melbourne, FL. Both leaving @ the same
time but going in different directions. John was quite the character; we
sure enjoyed him!
My daily check @ the Newell warehouse finally proves successful: our
plasma TV is gone & on it’s way to San Diego.
I spend some time getting to know our newly purchased Garmin 2720 portable
GPS for our tow car, while Kathy visits Wal-Mart & walks outside for 45
min for exercise. During her absence, the owner of “Wiley products”
returns Kathy’s earlier call: I question him about his published "Wal-Mart
Locator" book, then place an order. Having this book will make it easier
for us to dry camp in W-M. parking lots when driving cross-country just to
make distance & not be touring. Also, I get out our L-O-N-G vacuum hose &
clean the refrigerator coils + the galley heating supply vents.
7:25 dinner: Leftover filet steak, broccoli, fried whole wheat noodles,
salad & toast.
Evening movie via satellite: “Lenny” with Dustin Hoffman, Valerie Perrine,
Jan Minor, Stanley Beck, Gary Morton etc. Powerful biography of troubled
nightclub comic Lenny Bruce, whose hip humor & scatological dialogue made
him a controversial figure in the 1950’s. 1974. Another “not for children”
but highly recommended for us adults.
