July 10 The day started with a need to attend to immediate needs: laundry, and the unenviable task of emptying our waste tanks. Since we knew there was work to be done we instead chose to spent part of the morning visiting with Grant and Debby which was way more fun.
Peggy and I then proceeded to dump the waste tanks (whee!) which took us until the latter part of the morning considering the late start we had.
After lunch Peggy went to the laundromat. I went out and swept the launching ramp going into the lake. Peggy and I had attempted to edge the overgrown grass on the ramp, but we needed a spade. When I asked Grant about a spade he suggested instead he'd put the bucket on his skid loader and use it to edge the ramp. After he was done there was some chunks to be swept.
When Peggy returned we went to Walgreens to get some stuff and to fill the pickup with fuel in case tomorrow we want to take a day trip somewhere. We still have Hatcher Pass and the Matanuska Glacier to visit locally.
We grilled pork chops for dinner in amongst light rain showers. About the time we left the camper to go on an early evening walk it started to thunder. The ensuing rain prompted us to say that we had hiked enough yesterday to be able to take the evening off from exercise. So back to the camper we went where we assumed the couch potato position in front of the TV before calling it a day.
