Gus n the Dukester
He was so excited to come home and he jumped right into the truck. I took him for a run in the desert near our park. The kennel took some cool pics of him having his Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner. Thanks to Cassie and the gang at, At Home Kennels super job. Cost me $1,305 to board Dukester for 96 days I got 20% discount for long term.
At 1230 arrived at Desert Trails RV and Ms Andrea had me an excellent spot in the front of the park really big area so easy to back in. Cleaned up a bit and went to Walgreens to get some groceries. Got dark around 630 and damn what a cd night was 38 at 7 am. Yikes I just have coffee and some boiled eggs. Headed out about 830 to get Dukester.
1-26-2011 left Hawaii for Phoenix was a good flight. Got in at midnight and flight to Tucson. Did not leave till 830 the next morning. I spent some time on the floor just like some homeless guy at the airport. Was ok but no can sleep every 15 min recording came on "No smoking in the airport, n no carry someone else's bags on the plane etc".

Arrived in Tucson at 9 am got my bags and caught the Super Shuttle to Canyon State RV. Larry and the guys did an excellent job on repairing the "Gus" that's the name of my RV. Which is also my mainland handle.

The "Beast" Ford truck was repaired and looking good. I had to pay deductible of $375 and another $50 for checking and greasing hubs. I gotta admit I was nervous driving Gus after so long plus very little sleep.
Aloha everyone, vacation in Hawaii for three months was awesome. Lots of good kind grinds. Roger took me to Thelma's and we had their famous roast pork w/ tomatoes. Dad and I ate at Jackie's good kin pateles n tripe stew.

Spent lots of time at Ruby Tuesdays and other Fav spots. I gained 20 lbs and now need to lose it and sure lots more.
