When the guitars are packed and the bikes are strapped down in the cargo trailer, you know it's getting close. So...
We went after that before the heat and wind kicked up. Bikes out of the trailer, gear we'll need for summer riding loaded in, chocks (to hold the front wheel) locked in place, then strapped down. A few other things loaded around the bikes, lube up the front jack on the trailer, check tires. Lock it up.
The plan is for one more griddle cooked breakfast, then the griddle will get thoroughly cleaned and put away. A trip to our climate controlled storage, pick up a pizza, then start laying out things that will go to the motorhome.
Rufus knows something is up... he is poised at the front door, waiting for the opportunity to get out and munch some grass. Between the spraying for mosquitoes and what we spray (bugs and weeds), we're not letting him do that, right now.
Still hot? Yes, thanks for asking. 84º and 87% humidity. The wind is only 18mph, but will be building. So, that's fun. Tropical storm activity in the Atlantic, likely to become Hurricane Bret. It is too early to predict the path as it moves west. Right now, it is likely going to blow in south of Cuba and early models are showing it making landfall at Belize or Honduras. But that is just an early guess.
It is not out of the question that it could move across the Yucatan, weaken, then reform in the Gulf of Mexico. We'll keep an eye out.
