Well, here we are cooling our jets waiting for motorhome repairs. I have spent hours planning our first month of for-real fulltiming it. I am READY to go!
We have been being kind of lazy since our mad dash to South Dakota last week. We drove 1500 miles in the Miata in three days. I was looking forward to tent camping again after such a long time; but, we had thunderstorms both nights. All the bedding got soaked the first night. It rained hard (the locals said as much as 4” of rain) and was windy with lots of lightening. We had a very sheltered site so it wasn’t too dangerous but it was pretty fitful sleep. Night two was a little better. We had nasty storms in the evening as we were setting up camp and having dinner but then it calmed down so we got a little more sleep in our somewhat damp sleeping bags. We did see some pretty scenery along the way. Lots and lots of wind turbines! Next time through, we are going to stop a little and check out more stuff than what you can see at 65 mph along I90. We got our licenses taken care of and other paperwork so that is good. Met our mail forwarding people too. Looks like that will all work out.
If we are lucky, we are out of here this next weekend. Else, watch for one more update from sunny, exciting Elkhart.
It is hard to believe that it is fall already. Time really flies when you are retired, or at least trying to be.
