MAY 6, 7, & 8 - TUCSON

It was a cool, breezy night with a nice rain shower. Mark is taking the Dodge in for an oil change and Julie is waiting for the local mobile repair service to replace a slide motor. Sue, Wayne. Linda & Randy are going sightseeing.

Cameron's Mobile Repair found our slide problem right away. Unfortunately, a new motor had to be ordered and overnight shipped. It looks like we may be here in Tucson an extra day!

Linda and Randy have two moochers hoping for a handout. LOL. Picture below.

A trip to the local Walmart found us with too many full grocery sacks and nowhere to put them except the truck bed. Randy offered to ride "Beaner Style" and keep an eye on our bags. Hahaha. After we got things stowed away, Randy started his chicken marinade. Julie discovered raw chicken in the kitchen sink next to clean dishes. By the time Randy finished, he had had to sterilize the entire kitchen. LOL. So Mark said, "Did you learn anything today Randy???". And Randy said, "Yeah I did. Don't marinate chicken when Julie's around!!!".

Tonight we're all going to a Greek restaurant in downtown Tucson. Update ... Athena's was very good ! We found our way back to Rincon RV and sat on the patio with the dogs. It cools off nicely at night this time of year.

MAY 7 ... Randy and Linda are doing laundry, Wayne on the Internet, Mark, Sue and I went browsing at a downtown artists' area. Sue bought a few items including a glicee chipmunk painting. The three of us went to Guadalajara Restaurant for lunch. Wayne, Linda and Randy went specialty food shopping!!! Looks like some feasts are ahead. LOL

Sue and I had to make reservation adjustments due to our slide motor repair. We will now be here in Tucson an extra night with a later than usual departure on Thursday. We discovered our Flagstaff reservation hadn't been booked ... or the KOA couldn't find it. So, back to the books.

Wayne's cooking chicken ... the rest of us are drinking wine and watching news. Dinner was great ... drank some wine and watched Dancing with the Stars, then went for a walk. A good day!

May 8 ... Mark cooked breakfast on the patio for Linda, Randy and us. Sue joined the gang and we drove to Hobby Lobby where Sue instantly found a piece of furniture for their cottage ! She has to measure available space ... Vetoed by Wayne ! Haha

All but me, Julie, have gone to Sabino Canyon for the afternoon. I pulled a rib muscle so stayed at the RV's and relaxed. Apparently, it was a great tour with wonderful mountain scenery!!!

Hallelujah ! Our slide part and repairman arrived, so we may be traveling in the morning!

  1. Looks like Mark pulled some sort of a muscle in that picture . Obviously not a rib muscle but it looks painful.
