When we awoke this morning, Terry was already gone.  I certainly did not hear him leave so not sure when he actually did go.  Crumb, he could have been half way to California by the time we got up!!
Mogs was curled up on the end of our bed so I wonder if he slept there all night.  Corinna I think was with Kay.
The sun was shining but there was a chilly little wind blowing which made sitting outside with my morning coffee a bit undesirable.
The cats were out and did their business and were milling around the campsite checking out all sorts of sites and sounds.  They are rather inquisitive little creatures and their noses are always getting a work out!!
It was soon time to head out and Corinna was put into the trailer without any trouble.  Mogley, on the other hand must have suspected that something was "up" so he crawled up on the fuel tank of our truck and refused to come out.  Kay tried and tried to persuade him to come out but he was not having anything to do with her or her stupid bacon!!  Eventually, Kay was able to grab him and literally pull him off the tank.  He was totally freaked out by this time but she was not in any mood for any further nonsense......"stupid cat", she says!!
With both cats now safely inside the trailer, we headed down the road.  It was time to get a move on.
We travelled to a place in Nevada called Logandale.  It is situated in the Moapa Valley near the Valley of Fire State Park.  There are ATV trails here and tomorrow we will do a bit of quadding before heading elsewhere.
We settled into camp and Kay and I were getting the trailer all squared away.  There had been a bit of calamity in the trailer during our travels.   The bucket of utensils that usually sits on the counter had to be picked off the floor and the fridge door had managed to come open so there were a few things on the floor from it!!   Good Grief, the cats must have been really bugged.
We got the okay to side out the dinette and were in the process of doing that when we noticed that Mogley was stuck behind it and if we continued to put it out any further we would have crushed him to death!!  Jesus, Mary and Joseph......Where the hell is Corinna.  We had assumed that they were hiding under the couch!!  I guess we were wrong for him!!  Corinna was under the couch but Mogs was seeking more adventure!!  Holy Buckets!!  We had to put the slide back in to get him out of the cubby hole so once that was done, we were able to rescue him.   More trauma and emotional distress for poor old Mogs!!  He was totally not impressed with his whole day and once the door was open, headed outside and went directly to the quad and sat under it.  I think he has had enough nonsense for one day and believe me....if we had crushed him, well that would have just been ugly!!  Time for a calming beer!!
The sun was shining when we arrived so we were able to sit outside and enjoy it before it too decided to set and we were once again forced into our bunnyhugs and sweats.  Man, it is a wonder that someone doesn't get sick with all these temperature changes!!

Headed out
