Friday, June 6, 2014, and Saturday, June 7, 2014: Back to Hurricane:


We had an easy trip back to Hurricane on Friday.  The traffic through Salt Lake City was virtually non-existent even though we left the area during rush hour.  We had been told the rig would be ready for pickup any time after 3:00 PM.  We got to St. George early and had to kill two hours, so we went to the local library and Becky updated our computers while I read.  The library is in a restored historic building and is very nice. 


We arrived at D&D Automotive at 3:00 and learned that it would be a bit longer.  We finally left at 5:00, with a nicely repaired home, and connected up again at the RV park.  It had been a long day, so we crashed early.

We picked up Ramsey and Kelsey at the Doggy Dude Ranch early Saturday morning. 


I went to the office of the RV park to settle up.  They had promised a $2.00 per day refund since their Internet service wasn't working, and they processed the $60.00 credit without a hitch.  Since our rig had been out of the park for seven days being repaired, I also asked for a refund of an additional $14.00, representing the applicable portion of the $2.00 per day electricity charge we had paid up front.  The manager quite positively refused to even discuss it.  I decided to write a letter to the KOA headquarters about that indignity.  I started to draft it immediately, and that was fun.  Then we relaxed until late afternoon, when Becky and I headed to the Texas Roadhouse Restaurant in St. George for dinner.  We've been to other restaurants in that chain, but never to this one.  It was just like the others---excellent.  They really know how to run a very busy place.  We shared their blooming onion appetizer and each of us had a delicious
