The drive from Tucson to Lake Havasu yesterday was pretty routine, and with a lot less traffic than when we drove to Tucson 2 days before Christmas. Marc stopped by the fairgrounds on his way to work, and it was nice to see him again before we left.
The distance from the Pima County Fairgrounds to our home is just under 350 miles, and it usually takes us the better part of a day to make the drive. Our only stop was at the ZIP travel center on Interstate 10 @ Vicksburg Rd. (Exit 45). The diesel prices all along I10 at the truck stops like Flying J & Pilot were $3.82 - $3.84 a gallon. At the ZIP (huge American Flag), it was $3.75 ($3.77 for trucks) and has been a regular stop for us, not only for diesel, but for propane. I suspect due to the low fuel prices, it's always a busy place, and a wait is sometimes necessary.
When we arrived back at the house, our routine of emptying the fridge, & unpacking everything else is a process that we have down to a science. In 30 minutes or so, all of the stuff that needs to come out of the motor home is in the house, and after a day behind the wheel, I was ready to catch up on some of the TV shows that had been recorded. What in the heck did we ever do without a DVR?
Patty has an appointment with the eye Doc today for her 1 week checkup. The redo of her right eye went well as far as the surgery, but the vision improvement is still questionable. As she puts it, "it may just be as good as it gets". It can take up to 3 weeks for the full effect of cataract surgery to be implemented, so perhaps there will still be improvement in the next couple of weeks.
