An absolutely beautiful day in the Tropical Tip... just what I think of for a January day (back before that damn global warming started making the weather weird... yes, that's a little humor). Clear blue sky, very little wind, and a high around 70ยบ, with low humidity. A few more days like this, and I would never leave.
Which would be a problem, since we are ready to do some land traveling. Wild Blue came out of the water and went into storage on Monday. We've been getting things ready to go around the house. And today, the HitchHiker came out of storage.
Side by side. Then, Big Red hooked up, and time to move it on out...
I had some concerns as we headed for home: the tide is out and the swing bridge to get on the island was sitting pretty low - I thought the front landing gear legs may drag. There was a pretty good hump in the roadbed of the bridge on the way out. Joan suggested we get close to the bridge and check it out. As we approached, I could see that, even with the tide a bit lower, the hump was no longer there. More than likely, the bridge opened while we were gone, and when it closed, it was in a smoother position. Whatever the reason, it make pulling the 5th wheel over the bridge a non-issue.
We put the Love Shack on a site near the house and started getting her ready to be lived in again... first task: getting the water system and fresh water tank sanitized, taking the insulating sheets out of the windows, then the loading process. It looks like she did fine in storage, and she's anxious to hit the road...
She's not the only one.
