ONE FLAT TIRE AND ONE DAY LATE
We had decided today that we would drive as far as Victoria which is about an hour away from our park. Then in the morning head to the park.
We felt pretty good by the time we got there and decided that we would stop and have dinner and then carry on the rest of the way, stay in the Wal Mart in Fulton and then go into the park in the morning. We needed a new B-B-Que and there was an Academy Sports there so while Colin went in and got the B-B-Que I took the dogs for a walk. On my return to the trailer I noticed that the back tire on the trailer was low. When Colin got back he tried to put air in it but it was leaking badly from the valve stem. We got enough in that we could drive it over to the Wal-Mart, in hopes that we could have it fixed in the morning.
As the place we had chosen for dinner was on the far end of town our choices had narrowed to either Popeye's Chicken or What-a-Burger. We decided on Chicken........well maybe not! We walked into the place and there was a giant dead Cockroach on the floor, then I looked at the guy behind the counter who looked like he had not changed his shirt all week.......YUK!!! We informed them that we were leaving because of the roach and made a quick exit. Okay.....What-A-Burger was much better.
First thing in the morning Colin set about taking the tire off, upon closer inspection we discovered a large rip on the inside........okay time to haul out the spare tire. By the time we were all done it was noon. We went over and had lunch in the Sam's Club and then hit the road for our last one hour drive.
We got to the park with the regular crowd awaiting our arrival. It was good to see our friends again and of course brag about our new Grand Daughter.
We will spend the next two week here and head out to the Valley.
