RV Chores

Before it got too hot today, I took the motorhome out to Gallup to get a few things done. It was a good thing that I did as it got to 90° this afternoon.

I took it to T & R Propane at the north end of town to get the propane tank filled. It took about 9 gallons of propane. Next to the propane station, they had sheep for sale for around $275 each. T & R is a family-owned business that includes "western wear, vet, tack, rope, saddles, trailers, fencing, pet supplies, toys, home decor, and much more. We finance trailers, saddles, and campers. We pawn tools, tractors, trailers, vehicles and more. We have two pawn shops, two gas stations, several tax offices, a propane department, a grocery store, truck accessory store, a toolshed, and a feedstore."

Following this, I headed back into town to a coin-operated car wash to wash the motorhome. It needed a good wash since the trip in April to Tombstone and Tucson.

After stopping for a few groceries, I headed back to Jamestown. But before heading home, I filled the gas tank to half at the Flying J. Gas was $3.679/gallon. With my Good Sam discount, the price was lowered to $3.629/gallon.

When I got home, I unfurled the awning to let it dry out from the car wash to prevent mildew. While letting it dry, I popped open an Alien Amber Ale and relaxed.

Unless I decide otherwise, the next camping trip will be next month to Ridgway, Colorado for this year's John Wayne Cancer Foundation's marathon. I volunteered to work a water station for the marathon runners.
