I got up this morning not feeling too whippy, so we decided to take it easy today. We had planned on going to Mesa Verde National Park today but that will wait until another day. When we arrived here Tuesday I started to unload the motorcycle and when I loosened the tie down traps the bike wanted to fall over into the 5th wheel. Cheri had to hold the bike while I got the tie downs off and got on to back it off the lift. As it turned out the wheel chock was broken. I took it apart and this afternoon I checked on the internet and found a welding shop in Bayfield. I couldn’t call them because we don’t have phone service here. I loaded the address into the GPS and we headed for Bayfield on the motorcycle. Well there wasn’t any welding shop at the address. We made a stop at a gas station and they told us how to get to a repair shop that did welding. We would never have found the shop without directions. The guy welded the wheel chock while we waited, nice of him to do it right away. We made a stop at the grocery store to pick up a few things that would fit in the motorcycle and headed home. A 5th wheel had just pulled in beside us and I had a nice visit with the guy while he was getting set up. Later I put the motorcycle chock back together, the rest of the day we took it easy.
