Driving, Driving, Driving Keep Them Trucks a Driving
When we went to the Western Horizon spiel the previous day each couple was given a cheque for $50 (the pamphlet indicated that but we didn’t expect it, we were just happy getting 3 nights free). As we don’t have US bank accounts we searched the internet for a branch of Western Horizon’s bank that was on our route. We found one in a small town in New Mexico. Margaret and I were amazed at how easy it was to cash our cheques — two pieces of ID (one of them picture ID) and a thumb print. Does this mean we are in database somewhere and can be tracked?
We also saw one unusual thing while we were driving — a man walking on the side of the highway carrying a large cross. Does anyone know what that’s about?
The Wal-Mart RV park was fine and I was actually surprised at the number of RV’s in the lot for the night. Ed was not a happy camper though as he noticed the right front tire on the truck was low — taking a closer look he found a nail in it. As he had some tire goop he put it in the tire and it appeared to do the trick.
