Here We Sit at an RV Park.............

close to the Geocaching Event that actually starts tomorrow. The camp hosts are the people sponsoring the event. We arrived about 1100, shot the breeze with some folks we have met before and then set up my MTV and internet dish. Had a dickens of a time getting the TV dish working. I finally had to change the LNB and BINGO........had it up and running in no time flat. The old LNB had fallen over so many times, it's cracked and duct taped together, that I couldn't get it properly lined up. Took the LNB off our dish in Yuma before we left so glad I did that. The internet dish was a breeze after messing with the DISH dish. Nice little RV park here, they have electricity and water; but, no sewer or dump station. Good thing we're here for only two days or we'd be overflowing.

The NUVI was dinging like crazy when we drove in as it picks up geocaches that are within 500 feet. Will try to hike to a bunch of them along the trails tomorrow...........probably won't be able to walk on Sunday. Sunday at least 15 new caches are going to be placed in the area. Should be fun looking for them.

Didn't realize it when we signed up for the event but Corning is having their annual "Show and Shine" this weekend. There'll be a bunch of Classic Cars in town, plus some "junk" in progress. Tonight is the free hot dog mixer at the Ford dealership; but, we'll probably miss that. It's only a 20 minute drive back to Corning and mixer starts in an hour....... decisions, decisions.

We've found three caches on our way to KFC..........we had coupons for their "free grilled chicken"; but when we arrived they had a big sign on the door that said we could turn in our coupons and a "raincheck" will be mailed to us. Guess KFC stepped on the end of their crank when they offered "free chicken". We turned in our coupons and they said the rainchecks will be mailed to us.............yeah right. We left and went across the street to MacBurger.

It's starting to get warm..........guess we'll survive since we have electricity so gonna make good use of the A/C as long as we're paying for it.

More later, maybe with pics. W&B
