Tucson Winter Trip - (Day 18) - Clearing Cactus for fence


1/4/13 ( Friday)

We woke up and cook shrimp noodle for breakfast. We started clearing up the cactus. It was hard work; we both got stink from removing the cactus. Tom was still sick; he needs to drink a lot of water. While we working, I saw the City of Tucson truck drove by and asked me are we going to put fence? I told him yes we are. Tom saw the guy and went over to talk to him. He asked him a lot of question related to water, electric and gas service. He think he found out from the man where our water meter is.

 When they were talking to each other, I was continued to clear up the place. Since we didn’t have the right tools to do the work, it took us almost 6 hours before we cleared out the cactus. We both were very tired and we went to RV Park and took a shower (the time was 6:00 p.m.) Then we went back to the trailer and changed to clean clothes, before we went out to eat.

 We decided to have Chinese food, Tom drove to Mandarin Dragon,  but I told Tom this place was bad per review. Then Tom told me there was another place name China Bay. So we went and we found out the place were not too clean. When the food comes, it was only little portion on the plate. It cost us $29.40 for 3 dishes ( guy lane $7.98, Montone Beef $8.95, Sweet and Sour Pork $7.98….rice is $.70/ea) We both said this place is expensive, how can people afford to eat here. Next we went to Food City (outside to fill up our drinking water $.15/per gallon).  Then we drove back to our trailer.
