Camp San Luis Obispo, CA

This is an Army base. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of personnel here and the ones we’ve seen are mostly doing drills. Many buildings are in disrepair, even saw one where it had a fire and half the roof is caved in. It looks like they have no budget for repairs. Lots of weeds too. There’s a decent laundromat with snack machines and a machine that dispenses coffee and expresso. There is an Exchange about the same size as the laundromat and no Commissary at all. It’s a very strange place.

We planned on staying 3 days, see Hearst Castle, then go on to Monterey.

Vic started coughing on our way here on Friday. By yesterday, Saturday he felt worse. The Covid test showed positive almost as soon as he started the test. I tested too and I’m negative.

We spent the afternoon getting diagnosed and then trying to find a drugstore that had the test in stock.

He’s been taking Paxlovid and benedryl for 18 hours and they are helping a lot. Whew! We can’t figure out where he got Covid from – we are so careful using sanitizer etc.

I’m masking up, keeping my distance and spraying Lysol on everything he touches. 🤞 I don’t get it too. By the way I got the last booster but he did not.

We are out of the heat dome – very happy about that!

Stay well!
