This morning we spent cleaning up and starting to prepare to move to Holtville after the mail drop. Also on the list was getting clothes together to take to wash, refilling propane, etc.
This afternoon on the way to town we stopped and talked to the Camp Host’s wife. Finally we found out that the amount of people here was normal for this time of year. After Christmas the snowbirds will start coming in and things will pick up.
First on our list is a trip to Big O Tires for a rotation, alignment and check tire pressure. There has been one tire that looks slightly low so they will check that out.
Good thing we took the truck in for a check up. The low tire had a nail in it. They patched it and completed the other work.
Next is to fill up the propane. It’s 5pm and can’t get back to the cheaper place so fill up at the closest station at $2.19 per lb. All three tanks are filled and hopefully we will be good for a while. Last year it was really high in CA.
The laundry we chose was new to us. It was right off of 4th Ave & 7th Street. You got what you paid for here. The hot water was hot and the dryers took 2-3 runs at $0.25 per run. The only bad thing is that it is right behind a restaurant and we are hungry. One of the other patrons said the restaurant made us smell it so that we would all come in and eat. Ha,ha,ha it almost worked on us!
Back at the trailer, we unpacked, put things away and ate supper. Good night to all.

ReplyDeleteTeresa, Are you still in Holtville? We are there right now in the 14 day area off the south side. Would like to meet up with you if you are. Brona
ReplyDeleteHi Brona - ya funny! yup we are here til Feb. We were in the 14 day south side but our time was up (they are strict here) but didn't want to leave so we are in north LTVA.
