The fact that it was windy and cool outside caused us to revise our schedule a bit yesterday. Rather than than go outside to clean and reorganize our basement, we tackled some inside jobs that needed attention. There were several shelves in the rig that needed reinforcement so they were repaired. There also were some other minor things that needed attention so they were also done. The other major chore was taking the truck to the Ford dealer in town to have it serviced for the trip back east. Now, both vehicles have been serviced and are ready to go.
A couple changes have been made to the scheduled trip to begin on October 3. The first night will be spent in a town called Glendo, WY, which is north of Cheyenne and represents a total distance of 295 miles from Cody. The second night will be in North Platte, NE (329 miles for day 2), the third night in Grimes, IA (near Des Moines, and 406 miles for day 3), and finally arriving in Naperville on the 4th day (312 miles for day 4). The total trip is 1342 miles and the 4 days make for a comfortable journey. Two of the campgrounds are Camp Club USA campgrounds which provide a 50% discount to us as members, and the third one is a State Park - Glendo State Park - which is a low cost campground. There are no other membership campgrounds (that we belong to) going the way we are going on this trip. We should arrive in Naperville on Wednesday, Oct 6th, the way we now have it planned - I hope Patty is reading this.
We will begin working again today which begins our last 3 weeks here. There will be some minor changes in our work schedules, probably next week, to accommodate new business hours at the Village. It is also still windy this morning so it means that we still cannot do the basement thing again today. Josie will do laundry this morning and that about sums up our plans for today. Until tomorrow...
