Safford day today. Laundry, golf course, market. I have a big bag of laundry plus my linen. One laundromat in town. It’s big and clean. Big 5-load washers and they use a debit card! Sweet, I won’t have to use my quarters. Except they don’t take debit cards but a special “money card”. Which I don’t have. I’m standing there with the bag over my shoulder and the linen tucked under my arm while I’m figuring this all out. I get in a huddle with two women (who actually pointed out the 5-load washer) and both have cards and yada,yada. They were very nice and helpful and I might of looked a little befuddled. The washerwoman/owner sees the huddle and proceeds to get me squared up. Done and updated the blog while I waited!
Went by Big 5 and looked at kayaks and bought a bag of tees. Next, Mt. Graham Golf Course and hit a bucket. Hitting golf balls doesn’t seem to effect my knee. Decided to play 18. $27.00 to walk. Wasn’t going to keep score, just get my exercise in. The course is short but the greens are nice! If you stay in the fairway, the grass is good. I get to six, -1. Two birdies in a row. Driving well but my short irons were lasers. Easy 3′ and 18″ putts. And then the group in front decides to let me play thru….. Good-bye.
Eighteen holes in 2:58 hours, walking. My knee ached the last six holes. I hit some good shots, I lost some balls but boys you would of needed to earn it today.
Quick stop at the market and a Guacamole Burger at Carl’s Jr. It’s pushing 6pm by the time I’m on my way back to Riverside. Didn’t pay this morning but I’m sure it’s not going to be a problem. Got the LAST site! WITW? The internet is the scourge of good campsites. Traveler’s Observation: SxS utv have added to the strain. LOTS and LOTS of them out here. Most of the time it effects the dispersal camping areas and not necessarily the campground. That being said, four of the thirteen sites here have SxS tonight.
I’m thinking a small SxS in Bill’s bed and a 20-24′ travel trailer might be the ticket. We’ll see. Busy day, good night.
