   Well we had a lot go right and a few things wrong yesterday.

First we could not find the casino, we were boondocking in Brookings SD Walmart, walked over to the Perkins just across the corner for supper.  Nice older gentlemen heard us talking and told us how to find the casino. So we drove back. Got setup, have power, had not bothered with water yet. Furnace was running. Somehow the thermostat got bumped, cover fell off. Now it refuses to be adjusted above 32 degrees. AC tried to run, killed that with the breaker. But it was a cool night. 

And of course to top things off we were just finishing putting every blanket on the bed when the cat jumped up and relieved himself in the middle. Bit of a statement there.

Sorted eventually. Slept well, wife slid out of bed onto the floor as I'm trying to get out to find coffee this morning. ARhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the joys of camping. 

On the whole we love the pod. Bring it on world, I can take it! 200 miles of 2 lane back country road yesterday, only took 6 hours, nasty crosswind.  Onward and upward.

	Tommorow morning the R-pod 189 gets hooked up to the Jeep Grand Cherokee Larado and the wandering pod is going to start wandering. First stop Flandrue SD, casino there with water + elec for 12$ a night. Its half an hours drive from Cindy's parents in Brookings SD. Good place to check everything out make sure all is working as it should. From there we will wander and puddle jump our way to Hot Springs Arkansas area. Momma wants to go find some quartz crystals. We will start at Ron Coleman's Crystal RV park (very reasonable) and explore from there. A huge thank you from us to all of you for all of the help and encouragement over the last 6 months. We are DOING this, and we are going to have the time of our lives. Anyone interested can find us on Facebook. Cindy Jamison Fargo ND. Hang on to your hats folks, she's going to be a ride! Honk or come say hi if you see me. We are Bill and Cindy The wandering pod.
