SUNDAY / OCT 5 / RETURN HOME

SUNDAY

OCTOBER 5 2025

Lots of traffic on the road. I seemed to wake up everytime a car went past. Then I was hurting for a while. (I dreamed that I could wake up and take a hot bath to relieve the pain!) 

Hubby had gotten up real early to potty, but crawled back into bed. 

Up at 6AM with the dogs. Got dressed and walked them everywhere. We walked them thru the camping area. They pottied. PBJR refused to poop. She is a home-pooper.

Hubby started the generator to warm up egg breakfast for dogs and so I could make hot tea for me, and a hot latte for him.

After the dogs were fed, we put everything away. 

We got packed up and Hubby put away the generator after it cooled for a while. Picked up all the van packs and shook them out, then folded them.

Hubby put away the wood buckets. 

PACKING UP TO LEAVE CAMP

We loaded dogs and turned on the heater in the Dually. 

STOP SIGN LEAVING CAMP

Drove to Kanab. Stopped to get burritos and a croissant sandwich before a 2 large buses of Asian tourists pulled in. Hubby said their hot case was LOADED and asked the cashier-she said they get large groups of tourists this time of year, so they are prepared.

Hubby had to have another latte, so we drove to the Taro Coffee Bar where we got lattes before. It was very busy. Hubby had to have them re-make his drink 3 times as the first time, it was just hot water, then somebody stole his drink, so they had to make a third drink for him.

I sat in the truck wondering why a latte took 30 minutes to make!

Hubby finally got into the truck and we started driving. 

In Fredonia, there were MANY cop cars patrolling. Hubby slowed WAY down. One cop had to chase a car thru the whole town before they stopped. 

We drove to Hurricane. Lots of traffic. Driving stupid in bunches. Lots of cars passing on double yellow lines and passing in turn lanes. Lots of Harley Davidson motorcycles driving like idiots. 

Drive thru St George on the Southern Parkway from Hurricane. Much faster and not much traffic. They are starting to widen it to 4-lane in places.

We arrived home at 3PM. 

Hubby unloaded everything. I let dogs out for potty. Then gave them treats. They were all very tired and took naps. Gave Tater a painkiller for his limping left leg. Also gave a painkiller to PBJR for her injured left rear paw. 

We watched TV. 

I took a long nap. I hurt everywhere. I was very tired.

Hubby made steaks on the grille, baked carrots and potatoes in the oven.

I got up about 7PM. Real groggy. Took another nap. Just hurt everywhere. Had to take another Nitro pill.

I had another hot bath for the pain.

I had some dinner. Went to bed at 10PM.
