Shortened

Slept in, read on the tablet till 10:30, did not get to Ethel M's until almost noon. It's not too far from the mobile home park, a bit farther from the motel.

Very small factory, may just be for demo purposes. The cactus farm is massive, but they have annoyingly placed cheap valentine's day things among the plants. Hearts X and O. Very tacky. And most of the plants are strung with little lights. It may look better at night, but I doubt it. The whole concept of a garden to purify the water for the factory is completely gone.

Many photos on the Nikon but I don't have the right USB connector with me. Maybe tomorrow probably Monday.

Sciatica in my right side made for a painful visit, and shortness of breath from the altitude, too much hydration and low BP so I canceled my plans for the rest of the day, stopped at albertson's and got caffeine free diet Coke, bananas, pre-made salads (fork included) and more glasses wipes. Totally forgot the dental floss.

Back to the motel, caught my breath, drank some cola, ate two Ethel M dark chocolate mini bars,emailed the house inspector and the insurance agent. Watched the XFL game, phoned middle sister. And here I am at 6:30,a salad in my future.

Need to pack, maybe call youngest sister.

Plans for tomorrow:
Up early
Check out of motel by 8
Return car
catch my 11 am flight home
give Spook some treats
unpack
upload photos
