Day 10

We did get up early and left the RV park ASAP.

Made it to Catalina State Park shortly after 9:00am.  We were third in line to get in if anything opened up.  Only took about 30 minutes and we had our site! Whew!  Now we can finally relax for awhile.  But, while I know the weather is shit back home, it's cold and raining here in Tucson.  Actually we are North of Tucson in Oro Valley.  It's a little higher in elevation and right next to the Catalina Mountains.  In fact, there is a chance of snow on the ground in the morning, although it won't get below freezing.  BUT - sunny and 60 by tomorrow afternoon and heading into the 70's by the weekend with nothing but blue sky.  Well, enough of that.  Don't want to piss anyone off.

Too cold and wet to do anything here today.  Ellen went to the grocery store and I did some computer "stuff".  Managed a short late afternoon dog walk after the rain stoped.  Yet another great dinner by Ellen - sauteed panko-crusted Hawaiian Opakapaka, sweet potatoes, and fresh green beans.  With Chalone Chardonnay.  She's nice to have along on these RV trips.

Pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I let Ellen trim my eyebrows while at Brantley Lake.  She had been drinking.  Big mistake by me!
