Year 6, Day 41. “Living the Dream”. Wednesday, 6/10/2026. Heading to West Virginia today. Nice day for a long drive. While we are away the cleaning crew is working hard.
Even at McDonalds Steve is feeding the birds.

By the way both the Egg McMuffin for breakfast in Kentucky and the Hamburger in West Virginia were gross. I ate half of each and the rest was garbage. Not to say I didn’t eat a lot of junk food on the drive. Yesterday I received two $8.00 coupons from Bumble Bee because I issued a complaint about hard crunchy stuff in a can of solid white tuna packed in water we ate. A few weeks ago we had tuna sandwiches for lunch. I ate a few bites and it was so crunchy. Like what is this? I couldn’t eat anymore. Steve ate his. He kept thinking it was sand from his block laying. I put in a complaint to Bumble Bee online. They sent these coupons. Like I am actually going to use them. I think it will be a long time before we eat tuna again. The cans in the pantry are there for a deep disaster I would really have to be starving to open one of those cans.


We are spending the night at the Hilton Garden Inn in Clarksburg, WV. The hotel parking lot is filled with state department issued white pickups. Our room view is a mobile car wash in the Burger King parking lot next door. They were there till dark and it was not busy. Actually, I never saw a car there. Of course, I wasn’t staring out the window all evening. Doesn’t seem like a profitable buisness to me.




Well it is look out the window or look at the plastic utensils under the desk. Looks like housekeeping missed something.

Getting excited to see this smiling guy. He is so happy all the time. Even when headed to the dentist.

Daily reflection:





Here’s a link to today’s Amazon recommendation: https://amzn.to/4x00Dx4 iRobot Roomba 105 Vac Robot Vacuum Replaced my older Roomba’s with these. They are a little quieter, and map the rooms better. I don’t think they clean any better, but I love that I don’t have to close doors. They know where to go once you map them. I would never have a home without one again. Roombas are the best.
