Last day

We had a good last day.  We were having a problem with one of the power adapters for our computers, it was overheating enough we thought it might be dangerous, so we made an appointment at the Apple store in Albuquerque.  It was on the south side of the city so we decided to cut down on the east side of the Sandia mountains through Madrid where they shot a lot of Wild Hogs.  There were about 20 motorcycles out in front of Maggie's taking pictures so I guess people haven't forgotten about the movie yet.
We got the adapter switched out and then headed north to Nancy and CT's.  We had a chair that Jan had ordered sent there so were anxious to pick it up.  We have experimented with all kind of chairs over the years in the motorhomes, expensive ones, cheap ones, folding ones with tables and without and had pretty much found a cheap comfortable sling chair at Camping World that we liked.  We bought a bunch and because they are cheap and they sit outside all the time they deteriorate and fall apart fairly quickly.  Well, Camping World discontinued them.  While we were cleaning Vern and Viv's stuff out in Louisville, we found a couple more that they had used.  But now we are down to 3.  A new chair was written up in the motorhome magazines, called a Strongback.  It had rave reviews, folded up small, was made of quality components and fabric, and had lumbar support.  Well our initial reaction is very positive, it's comfortable and seems to be made well.  We'll let you know how it holds up.
We visited for a bit then went to pick up Vivian to go out to lunch.  We had a very good meal at Indigos in Corrales.  Went back to the house to visit a bit more, then off to the store and back to the motorhome to have an early dinner for our early departure in the morning.
