We were woken up at 7 a.m. with the sounds of generators starting up here in the dry camping section at Balloon Fiesta Park. We dozed until getting up around 8 a.m. and our generator joined in the hum.
We were out the door around 9:30 and headed out to Clark Truck Co. to have the Ranch Hand Grill Guard installed. Brrr...it was cold and windy. Many conversations have been had about the dangers of running into deer, elk, cows, etc. As we are heading to Custer where white-tail deer are like fleas, we decided we better take the plunge. John spoke with someone at Tombstone Territories RV Park and was told that he had his installed in Texas and what the price was. I did some searching on the internet regarding distributors and John did some calling. We actually found a dealer in Albuquerque who had the best price and we didn't have to go out of our way to get it installed. We showed up, they installed the grill guard, we paid, and were out the door within two hours. We feel the grill guard is like insurance. Hopefully, we will never need to use it. We then headed out for lunch as we didn't have any breakfast and we were starving.
We stopped at Target and Lowe's to pick up some supplies. One stop shopping as they were next door to one another. John made the comment that it was really nice being in a town with shopping choices; oh, how I agree.
By the time we got home, it was relatively warm so we decided to sit outside and watch the world go by. It wasn't long and a couple stopped to chat who were walking their cute dog. Soon the conversation turned to the Ranch Hand Grill Guard. I ended up giving them the company's name and phone number as they were interested in getting one. We were then joined by our neighbors Loren and his wife, Linda (from Colorado) and Don and his wife, Bev (from Oregon). The six of us sat out there for almost three hours just chatting and having a good time. Again, we were asked about the Ranch Hand Grill Guard. Goodness! We only had it installed for a few hours and we've received this much interest. I will post a picture of what the truck looks like in the next few days.
We had a quick bite before heading up to the entertainment tent for the live entertainment for the night. The band is local 50's-60's cover band called the Hub Caps. They weren't great but they weren't that bad either. However, I don't think Simon Cowell would be very complimentary. When we left the tent around 9 p.m., it was cold, cold, cold with a strong west wind. We had anticipated it being cold so we wore double layers on our topsides. Still it was a very cold walk back to the rig. I think we could even get a dusting of snow tonight.
