Day 7 Thurs Jan 19 -to Fantasy Springs casino

Clear & sunny, mild
I gathered a few more oranges while I unhooked services & re hooked up the car. We pulled out of Orange Grove RV Park 10:20 @ 148679 km. On eastward on hwy 58. The GPS took us on 58 to 395 then south to 215 and connected with hwy 10 to Palm Springs area, a different route than we normally take. We stopped for gas at a Pilot stn on the corner of hwy 58 & hwy 395 at 148818 km, from 12:00 to 12:10. Then our lunch stop was at a Denny’s in Adelanto about 60 miles further down Hwy 395, at 148873 km, from 12:55 to 1:40. Then I went grocery shopping while Sheila went to a manicure place to have her falsies removed – nails! nails!. You are apparently supposed to change them periodically. That took from 1:40 to 2:40. Finally on the road again and arrived at Fantasy Springs Casino parking lot 4:45 @ 149049 km. Weather seems nice and mild almost warm but as it is getting dark by 5 pm, hard to tell. I set up the generator for later and Sheila went into the casino while I stayed to do computer stuff & relax. I checked the mileage on the GPS route against our usual route. GPS knows best! I have it set for fastest route and it was way faster, all high speed multi lane roads, VS- small towns, 2 lane roads, traffic lights etc. There was only a half mile difference in distance, my streets & trips put our old route at 229.6 miles.

Distance travelled – 370 km – 230 miles
