Timing...

One of our neighbors called me "ambitious" after watching me clean the 5th wheel yesterday and then go to work on the exterior of the house with a power washer today. It's all about the timing. Several days ago, we put off leaving Arizona to time going across west and central Texas with decent weather. It all worked out. When we rolled into the Tropical Tip on Tuesday, we could see that we had another 2 - 3 day window before the next norther blew in.

So, we got the 5th wheel unloaded, cleaned, and into covered storage... all with beautiful weather. Same with cleaning the siding on the house this morning. The hourly forecast today called for the next norther to blow in between 3 and 4 this afternoon. After all the work of the past few days, we had a late lunch out and were sitting at the beach, commenting on how calm the wind was. 15 minutes later, the first gust hit. And now, an hour and a half later, the wind is 31 gusting to 37 and the temp is dropping. Tomorrow, it's only supposed to be in the 50s and still windy. But, my work is done. The next project is to get Wild Blue out of storage and back in the water... but, that is something I am looking forward to. :-)
