Sunday - a room w/o a bed

Lazy lazy lazy day. Extended stay America. We have a room without a bed. First one this trip.  It seems luxurious.  Listened to TV commentary that US had to bomb Islamic state to protect Americans in Erbil. The room with a bed is also nice.

Came back downtown. Had pizza by the slice at the bus depot (Have to be careful where you step on the sidewalk.) Watched news of the middle east with commentary that the US could easily transport all Americans out of Erbil by helicopter. Next stop the captain cook hotel with its shops and restaurants and lounges. Watched a bit of nfl . Luxury.

Dined in.

Went to the Spenard farmers market yesterday. Then left the truck for an oil change.  Need new brake pads on rear.

Walked along Campbell creek trail and some intervening streets for 3 1/2 hours. Stopped along the way for coffee at Golden Donuts. Yum. Watched coho salmon spawning at a footbridge crossing. Path heavily used by bicycles. Saw some aging/dated/corny tourist attractions. I know where to go to see Dusty Sourdough perform live on stage.
