1 bus to Grand Rapids MI, delivered

... spending the night at Waterloo IA ... 

No alarm. Up by 7 AM. Thought I slept good but my BP wouldn't go down. OK, but not down.

The only thing worth grabbing for breakfast was two donut sticks. Sugar high, just from one. BB ate leftovers from past stays.

When I checked out, still no computer, no receipt. Computers went out yesterday about 11 AM, no major storm in this area.

We watch the loadboard. Two no-tows for FL, rental cars are under $40 a day. But then the RV's are gone. Other things come and go.

No damage past Waterloo, in fact crops look as if they could use rain.

We stopped in Clear Lake at Pilot to use the restroom. Then on to Forest City.

Lots of action at Forest City lot, main lot is fairly full. People are hooking up their tow cars and getting ready to roll. Lots of RV sitting on the shippers side of the highway. We didn't talk to anyone, just moved our stuff from the rental car to ours.

After BB dropped the rental, we got a sandwich at Honey Baked. We were there a little after noon and we sat outside to eat. No one else came to the store in the 30-45 minutes we were there ... at noon.

I stopped to get blood work done. I guess they have always done it here, even under restriction where I had to go somewhere different. Had my BP checked too. They did it in urgent care. No one waiting at this location, a little different than my Dr's location which is usually full.

Once we were home I called and set up an dentist appointment for Sep ... and called about a new phone, but those appointments are for a few days out and we only plan on being in town a day. We hope.
