First order of business today is to straighten out on our camping pad. We pulled in last night, and rather than annoying our neighbours with the engine and lights running after 8:00 PM, we just pulled up and parked. So today, we unloaded the car off the dolly, and shuffled the motorhome on the campsite pad so that we were straight and could make use of the small patio outside our front door.
Second order of business was to arrange our next campground and deal with the fact that we have no cell phone service in this campground. So, we travelled back up the road to Why to figure out our next stop after our stay in the Organ Pipe Cactus park. Cell service is just confusing - our cellular based Cricket hotspot seems to work almost anywhere, but our cell phones with our Shaw Mobile numbers from Canada only seem to work in major centers. We purchased another sim card and phone number from a company called Simple Mobile. Its a little more reliable - seems to work with either AT&T or T-Mobile towers, but is not as reliable as hoped. So, we made our next campsite reservation using the Simple Mobile number while sitting in Why, but Brenda needed to contact friends at home in Canada and we had to drive to Ajo to get her phone to work.
Eventually we got all the phone calls made, but we also had to make a trip to Gila Bend to pick up another missing Amazon package from the day before. It was a rather hectic day of travelling, and we were happy to get back to the campground and relax.
