Day 131, Thursday, February 26, 2026 - Gilbert Ray Campground, Tucson, AZ, Day 3 - 0 Miles, 4,306.4 Miles for the Trip.
57°F overnight, 63°F for my morning walk, 80°F at noon, and the high for the day was 80°F.
I shut of the AC, opened some windows and turned on the MAXX fan just after dinner when it got down to 75°F outside & inside the trailer. While the Houghton is much quieter than my old Domestic AC, it is nice to have the quiet of the MAXX fan.
I spent the morning sitting outside reading. I finished Dana Stabenow's A Taint In The Blood, so I'm back on the Kindle, reading The Final Twist by Jeffery Deaver.
After lunch I headed to the post office to mail a birthday card. The closest post office was in an Ace Hardware store, one of the largest I've seen, and only 4.5 miles from the campground.
After I got back to the trailer I sat outside in the shade and read.
Around 3:00 I headed into the trailer for a shower. It is only fair to rate it - at best, a C-. No shelf or drying room (unless you consider the rest of the trailer as the drying area), and a very small shower room with a toilet in the middle. Plenty of hot water but you do need to wipe down the entire thing after showering. As I said, a C- at best.
Back outside in the shade.
Dinner was a Healthy Choice Chicken Lo Mein Bowl.
Until Next Time -
