Monsoon Aug 2 Target - Under the Weather
🕑 Added 2022-08-02 19:04:37 +0000 UTCAfter flying home from Phoenix yesterday Nat tested positive for Covid. She had minor symptoms and tested negative thrice, but 4th time's a'Larm. :D Yesterday I was slightly feverish and quarantined in a hotel all day but feeling 95% today... Armed with 3 jabs, my leucocytes are likely kicking some serious Covid butt.

Today I'll be arriving late on the scene for the storms in SE Arizona. The WindBreaker is packed with tuna, jerky, GORP (Good Ol Raisons & Peanuts) ramen, cereal ... the works, so I think I can limit my exposure to only one pre-warned hotel clerk a day. I had the clerk here warn the maid I'm likely a nasty carrier.
If symptoms turn south, I'll likely push home, however I'm extremely pumped for some more Monsoon bolts in sweet, sweet isolation.
Thanks everyone,

No worries, it's all good! Hopefully you're another step closer to feeling 100%. Glad to hear Nat is feeling better.

Amen to the lightning gods! Cheers Barbara!

Second, I remember staying here last year and the desk clerk venting how dumb she thought masks were. She really seemed to appreciate my mask this year. Those 3 flights of stairs are winding me though.

First, thanks to Patreon, I am now a Hampton and Hilton Prima Donna. The cleanliness, the free brek, the points… worth the extra $40.

We call those snorters. Love em! Yeah Nat really complained about the dryness here. Perhaps I’m more used to it. But she’s feeling much better in the Houston humid soup.
Pecos Hank
Ok, I’m on day 4 I think. One more to go maybe?
Pecos Hank
Lol. Now that I have it I’m getting educated on when you’re not contagious. I was thinking about our hang and feeling dumb. 😬

Hilton isn't all urban and fancy resort stuff. They own a whole bunch of chains, including Hampton Inn, Hilton Garden, and a couple extended-stay suites (which would be the best choice for quarantine). And even BW Plus is too fancy for shower heads that double as percussion instruments and complementary dead beetles. That's more like Econo Lodge. If I never stay at one of those again, it'll be too soon.

For some reason I don't see Hank in a Hilton.... maybe a 'Best Western Plus' - only because of what we see when he's chasin'

Her's hoping both your and Nat's symptoms go away and that you test negative. May the lightning gods grace you with marvelouis bolts.

When it comes to hotel clerk warnings, Hilton offers contact-free check-ins through their app. My last two trips involved Hilton hotels, and my only contact with the front desk was when I picked up a midnight snack from the hotel store. Douse the room in Lysol and/or Microban when you get there and again when you leave, take your trash with you, and you should be well assured of not exposing the cleaning crew.

Good luck!

Getting the 'vid is like Thanos.... "... Inevitable" ... and not as dangerous now as it was 2 years ago... Enjoy your quarantine time together!!!!!

Pulling for you both. Those little menthol sniffers help a lot with the upper respiratory stuff. Dry desert heat, not so much. :(

Get well soon you all.
Get well soon brudda, got covid at the same time as the rest of your friends in mid June this year in belle fourche and it knocked me out for five days.
I hope you and Nat feel better soon! P.S. - it wasn't me lol!
