2/23/18 Last day at HabiStore

We had the early shift today so got on the road about 8:00.  For the 4th day in a row, it was colder in the morning here than in Mystic.  The difference is that when we came out of work at 1:30, it was 65 degrees and sunny.  Today was quite slow, but we did sell to almost everyone who came in so that was a successful day.  Everyone said they were sad to see us go, but we are ready to come home.  Alastair was delighted with the brownies, but sad that he wouldn't get any more.  They must have been popular because I took a break at 10 and they were all gone (24 count)!  I forgot to tell you about a weird incident that happened on the way to work yesterday.  There was a car carrier ahead of us as we turned onto Grant Street.  It went under the I-10 overpasses just fine, but when it went under the railroad overpass, the car on top had pieces flying off of it - the carrier with its load was taller than the overpass!  Fortunately, none of the pieces hit our car as I don't usually follow too closely.  The driver pulled into the back parking lot of Sonic, which is next door to the HabiStore, and Dave saw him take the car down to inspect it, leave it parked in the lot and then come back later with a different carrier to cart it away.  I hope there was insurance on the car as it was brand new.  If no insurance, the driver probably lost his job.  We get done with our shift at 1, but stayed a bit longer so Luis could print out our boarding passes for tomorrow.  We came home, had lunch, and packed our suitcases.  Tomorrow we will vacuum, change the bed, and throw a load of sheets and towels in the washing machine.  We will go out to dinner tonight so there won't be any dishes to deal with.  No pics today and this will be our last blog so hope to talk to everyone when we get home.
