Mondays are for chores. After goofing off all weekend we spent Monday catching up on life. While Kelly worked Paul pounded away at the blog and tidied up the trailer. Over the past week we have been eating out a lot rather than cooking in. To get back on the home cooked bandwagon, we pulled together a large list for a Walmart down the road in Cottonwood, AZ.
The AT&T cell signal that Kelly depends on for work has been so inconsistent since we entered Arizona that we have decided to purchase a Verizon hot spot. As we have struggled to find camping locations with good signal, we hope that a second cellular option will allow us more freedom to camp where we like. Verizon has two options for hot spots, a full cellular plan or a pay-as-you-go device for considerably less money. We’re not pleased with the prospect of buying a pay-as-you-go hot spot, but with only 2 months of travel time left on this trip we can hardly justify purchasing a hotspot and signing up for a multi-month cell plan.
After a fairly extensive shopping trip at the Walmart, we had a quiet night at home in the trailer with a little bit of TV and a home cooked meal. It’s nice to not be running from place to place for a change.
