Basement Cleaned

We started the day yesterday with a buffet breakfast at the Sunset House in Cody. We had been there before for breakfast but the last time we ate from the menu and it was on a day other than Sunday. The Sunday buffet is excellent and for $8.99 per person is a very good value. We drove the truck to breakfast so we could get it washed and ready for our trip.

When we arrived back at the rig the big objective for the rest of the morning was to get the basement emptied, sorted and re-packed. We did get it cleaned although we didn't really eliminate a whole lot of stuff but it is reorganized and ready to go on Saturday. The inside of the fifth wheel is the only remaining big housekeeping chore before we depart.

The weather has been spectacular the last 2 days and the forecast is for it to continue through the weekend. As a result of the nice weather, we are rethinking the route to Illinois and may change it to go the original route we planned that would take us through South Dakota and Mount Rushmore. If we do go that way, we would stay a full day in or near Rapid City and still arrive at Patty's on Wednesday next week. We'll get another forecast update on Wednesday, and if it holds, we will go that way.

This morning is our meeting with payroll to review our bonuses. As indicated yesterday, it is no big deal, so we will get that out of the way. Other than that, with only 4 work days left, we are counting down to the end of the season...
