And She's OFF!!!

Almost anyway.  I had firmly made up my mind to make the drive to Southern California in one day, even though I wasn't feeling good about poor Jonathan having to be under so much stress.  Birds don't handle stress well ... they tend to die!!  I just didn't want to deal with 21 degree temperatures in Boron, where we usually stay, in spite of the scary atmosphere!!  

Lo' and behold, RV friend Dave Burdick reminded me of the park in Bakersfield that's right on the way.  PERFECT!!  That would cut four hours off the second day's drive.

I called last night for reservations, but they were closed.  Hopefully they will get back to me this morning.  I have plenty of time to finish packing and will leave about noon.
That also means I'll be able to take my time on Wednesday for the second leg of the trip.  Nancy's a happy camper!!  She'd be happier if she wasn't still sick.  A trip to an urgent care in So Cal may be in order.

The second great suggestion I got was to hit Mexico while down there for some antibiotics in case this happens again ... which we all know it WILL!!

Lots to do, so I'm OFF!!!

  2. The next time you are feeling a cold coming on start taking 2-vit. C every 3 hours. Vit. C is the active ingredient in Airborne. This is what we do and has greatly shortened the colds legenth tremendously. (We don't wake up in the middle of the night to take this!) Safe travels and hope you are feeling much better soon. Diane

    1. Aha!! Another good tip. I will definitely do that! I didn't know Airborne had so much Vit C. For now, I'm eating oranges like crazy (see todays blog)!!
