go

We quickly finished getting the motorhome ready to move.  Backing out was a bit tricky, we had people watching the operation.  It didn't take long and we didn't hit anything.  We stopped by the office to tell the manager goodbye and were off to "Eddies" to get the motorhome oil changed.  On the way our tire indicator beeped that the motorhome front driver's side tire was loosing air although it was maintaining the same, but lower than normal pressure.  So we had Eddies look at that as well.  They said they could see nothing wrong with the tire and check the air.

After leaving the motorhome at Eddies we went for breakfast at Morningside and then to Menards, K Mart, Target and down town Rapid City where they sell watch batteries cheap AND install them.  Then lunch at Culvers and our motorhome was ready.  We got on the road about 1:30 and drove to Mitchell, about 2/3 of the way across SD.  We had no more tire problems.  It was a hot day and we were tired.  We pulled into a small campground in Mitchell, it was as clean and neat as a campground can be and just 1/4 miles off the Interstate highway it was surprisingly quiet.

Ready, set

We spent a lot of the day getting the motorhome ready to move tomorrow.  We really get things spread out after 2 months in one place.  In the evening the manager had a pizza and ice cream party for all workers.  It was a good time to say goodbye.

Lasts, at least for awhile

I wanted to eat again at Mongolian Grill, so we ate there Monday night.  Always so good, I will miss this place as we move along.

Don wanted to eat again at Alpine Inn, we ate there tonight.  Again - always good and we will miss this place as well.

We worked today for what was the official last day in the office.  Don has been doing some woodwork replacing site numbers that have gotten bad or dissipated all together.  I will miss not working during the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, it is always a fun time.

Nice Sunday

Quiet Sunday - at breakfast at IHOP.  Didn't even go to Menards, just came straight home.  We are having beautiful weather and want all the time possible to enjoy.  I talked to our daughters in the evening.

I need a dog.

Quaker Steak and Lube

Some friends stopped by to look at our "new" blinds and then we made arrangements to go out to eat in the evening.  We went to Quaker Steak and Lube.  We had never been there - it was an interesting place with good food and decent prices.  We had a great visit with our friends although our server was probably glad to see us finally leave.

Pink Party

We went to a "Eat, Drink and Wear Pink" party this evening at the nearby Hart Ranch RV Park.  We have friends that work there and other friends from around the Black Hills that were there.  Fun to see everyone again!

It has been in the 90's the last couple of days and humid (for this area).
