7:40pm Let's see. Today has been a great day. This morning around seven thirty Carol woke up with a weird feeling that we should transfer the camp back to where we had it, behind the playground. Where we slept last night, under the big tree I used to crash under, was way visible with the construction workers being so close and all. We were hoping they wouldn't work today. We got up early and made the transfer successfully. Right when we finished, the Mexicans showed up. Whew. It was misting/drizzling so Carol sent me off to the Ace Hardware store to buy some tarps. Around eight thirty. I bought the five by seven tarps. Ninety nine cents each. Before I had left Carol had been busy placing logs around the trees we sleep under. I went and got a lot of branches with leaves. I came back with the tarps and Carol strung one up. About five minutes later it starts raining hard! We took like a three hour nap. Carol had some receipts she'd found at the Home Depot. She needed to get her prescription filled at the King Sooper's on Arapahoe and 30th. The pharmacy was closed, so we went to the Home Depot across the street. It was funny, Carol all asked an employee where our items were. He told her and Carol found the items. She handed me four tubes of caulk and the receipt. I walked to the customer service desk and said, "I'd like to make a return, please." Bam, six bucks. I was nervous the whole time there, so after I got the cash I went straight outside. I crossed the street in front of the grocery store, where I had stashed my walking stick, so as not to look inconspicuous. I even took off my rainbow beanie too. After about five minutes Carol showed up with like twenty dollars! She made her "returns" at the Home Depot no problem. Now, I'm taking a shit at the Walgreen's on 30th and Valmont. I really wish I had a camera so I could take pictures of our perfectly-concealed camp. It's right next to a jogging trail and everything. Nobody can see us. I think we're supposed to go to the hottub later.
Next day..
