The Fourth Time’s the Charm…
Today we finally leave Elkhart, but it’s going to be a short trip…just up north into Michigan. We have some things to do up there before we head south.
Around 10 am I fixed coffee and we had some of Terri’s great Pumpkin Cheese Bread/Cake. Then about 11:30 we saw Nick and Terry hooking up to leave so we walked over to say goodbye.
We’re really going to miss Nick and Terry. They’re nice people and fun to be around.
Travel Safe!
Coming back in, I puttered around the coach, getting things ready to travel. Next I took down the satellite dish and dumped the waste tanks. Lastly I stowed everything away and close all the bays. Everything was ready to go, except for disconnecting the shore power. I always save that for the very last.
Coming back inside, I finished up by vacuuming the carpet. Then about 3:15 Jan pulled in the slide and locked down all the doors.
I fired up the diesel and went outside to disconnect the power, while waiting for the air pressure to build up.
And then about 3:30 pm we headed out up north to Michigan. Since we weren’t going far, we didn’t hook up the toad. Jan just followed me.
We had a great dinner at Lunkers and then drove the toad over to the Tractor Supply Store in Niles, MI
Coming back to the rig we topped off the night with another piece of Terry’s Pumpkin Cheese Bread/Cake. I think it gets better as it ages.
Tomorrow we’ll drive about 330 miles southwest to Vernon, IL to visit Jan’s sister Debbie for a few days.
After that we may head toward Branson, or we may not.
We’ll see…
