The Kadizzlites landed in Denver to see our little bug Sylvie. In Denver we resupply groceries, and buy some of that $2.85 gasoline. The Commander plans to stock the camper with meat, liquor, and other items. Kadizzle is having a serious debate with himself about buying a location device from Delorme. The device would enable the Kadizzles to send an emergency message from any place via satellite. The question is are our lives worth $300 up front and $11 a month? Often we are miles from nowhere in some steep canyon or on some desolate cycle trail. If things go to hell and something breaks, or someone gets hurt help is hard to come by. The device is pretty nifty. You can send text messages and let people know where you are. Might be convincing myself.
Today we will head down to Chociti Lake. It is a Corp of Engineers campground and pretty nice. Already we are enjoying the warm weather. The drive down along the Eastern side of the Rockies is not bad. Since it is Saturday we may luck out and not have much traffic. The truck has been getting absolutely terrible gas mileage. With new tires at 80 psi one would think things would improve, but we are only getting between 7 and 8mpg. The good news is gas prices are low.
Sounds like Sylvie is up and time for Grandpa to go see the bug.
