Someone worked hard today!

This morning I was going to wake up and get going ay 8 o'clock, so I could dump tanks before the 11 - 1 timeline given me for JB's arrival to fix my septic pipes.  Woke up at 6:30 did a little blog reading and then decided to rest till 8.  The next thing I knew it was after 9 o'clock, my usual wake up time.😩 

No coffee, no crackers this morning!😰  Maybe later.  We left around 10 o'clock and went to the Pima Fairgrounds about 8 miles west of here.  Great place.  $5 for dump and water and there were trash bins.  We were overloaded with trash.  Great price and very convenient.

Started gabbing to a guy in a Class C while dumping and unloading trash and lost track of time.  Nick reminded me that it was 11 o'clock and we had better get back before JB shows up. 

JB didn't show until 12:45 and I was getting a little worried.  The parts looked great and he started to work, expecting to be done and out of here before Nancy arrives.  

His two hour job lasted till 5 o'clock!  He had to run into town around 3 o'clock to replace a 90 degree elbow with a 45 degree.  While he was gone, Nancy arrived and Nick and I moved our vehicles out of the driveway so she could get her 5th wheel parked under its cover.

We all sat out in the driveway chatting for about an hour until JB needed my help to hold things and Nancy had to make a run over to her friend's house.

JB hard at work.
By the time JB was done it was dusk and cooling off so once Nancy returned we had a short chat before everyone called it a night.  It has been a long, but successful day! 😀

We're packed and ready to head towards Yuma tomorrow morning sometime, but no real hurry.  It's about a four hour drive from here.  Going to have my breakfast for dinner and a little dessert and call it a night.

Thanks for stopping by.

  1. That's great to get that taken care of and all ready to head out in the morning. Think Nick is ready for some long term boondocking? Have a safe trip towards Yuma!
