MACH.19 - Saguaro Country, Final Day 22: Pants, Take Me Home

Saguaro Country, Final Day 22
Pants, Take Me Home
Sunday, May 19, 2019

We awake a little later than planned to a warm, cloudless day.  "Remember to reset the house," Kitty says.  We have an Internet-aware home heating and cooling system, which we set to "away" when we travel for extended periods. This sets the temperature parameters to be maintained between 62F and 82F. I call up the app  and reset the thermostat.  The house will be cool when we get home.

As we are packing up for the final day, Kitty observes the jeans she's been wearing for, well, to protect the innocent, an undisclosed number of days.

She looks skeptically at the jeans and finally decides to wear them one more day. "Ok, pants, take me home!" she says.

And so they do. We have an uneventful ride of a little over 200 miles in heavier-than-expected Sunday morning traffic up I-81. We make the final and familiar turn to I-66 West at Mile Marker 300.

And then we are home, 12:30 PM. I'll post up some trip thoughts later.

It was an awesome trip taking us to new and wonderful sights and places, and in spite of the battery issue and having the bike knocked over and damaged in New Mexico, ranks as one of our best trips together, ever.

I'll post a trip redux later.


220 miles for the day, 6,298 miles for the entire trip.

The SpotWalla Bubbler GPS app is no longer broadcasting but the link remains active and you can zoom in and out as desired. Note that I have a "safe zone" set up for a certain number of miles around my home so it will not broadcast exact locations when within that zone.
