Squaw's Tit - Mesas on the Back Road to Farson

This was our Mixed Media meeting day and I had to cancel out on going. They had a nice get together and lunch at the seniors Rendezvous Pointe. We got up early and drove to Rock Springs for Joe's eye appointment at 11 a.m. I didn't want to postpone it because with surgery coming up was unsure when I would be able to bring him down for another appointment. He had a side-vision test. We were so disappointed that the eye dr. told him there was nothing more he could do for him. As they have said all along his declining vision is not his eyes, but what the stroke he had did to the part of the brain that processes what you see.

We got the oil changed at the Pennzoil place. The people who run it are quite gay and get gayer every time we go in. Two older men, one's name is Dawn and has long blond hair. The other has a nice perm and hard to describe whether he's a he or a she. But they are very efficient and do a good job - can't believe how quick they are. I'm really not sure if Joe has noticed the situation or not, he's never said a thing. We went to Applebee's for lunch and after waiting a long time to order, waited an hour for the food to come. I don't ever want to go back there again, because the food has really gone downhill too. They did give us about 30 percent off our meals for having to wait. Then I went and shopped at Walmart, more quickly than usual as I was tiring out. We also went to Home Depot to see if they had a smaller fan that would install over the new range, but they only carried the larger ones. We might find something that will fit better at an RV supplier.

If I remember right it was a pretty nice day with afternoon thunderstorms rolling across the landscape on the way home. We saw a few wild horses. We went down on the back road and home on the highway. We got back about 5:30. By now I was running on fumes, so I only put the perishables away, and worked on the rest the next day. I'm sure we had something easy for dinner. My notes say Betty and Beverly called.
