Woke up to a damp start at about 52°F climbing up to 64°F.
The clouds broke up as the morning progressed which was good as we wanted things to dry out so that we could start packing them away. By Lunch time most of the outside stuff was packed, the ladder hung on its new support and the bikes secured to the rack.
Last night I stopped to get some diesel and inflate the rear tyres. When we are not towing all 4 tyres on the truck are inflated to 50psi, with the trailer in tow the rear wheels go up to 80psi. The air machine at the gas station had a problem going above 75psi. This morning I decided to see if my small portable air compressor could top up to 80, in a gallant effort (and much time) it made it to 79.5.
Next check was the trailer wheels that had dropped down to 60 while in storage, they should be 80. On again went the compressor, this time it took a lot longer just to get to 75, after 10 minutes on the second wheel a very nasty noise came from the air compressor; it was the death rattle! Now I have to drive carefully and quickly find a place that can pump high pressure air before we get too far tomorrow.
All that needs doing tomorrow is to disconnect the water, sewer and hydro and secure loose objects in the trailer and we will be on our way.
We were thinking of doing the trip in one day, it is around 485 miles, but we didn’t want to rush things in the morning and still arrive in the dark to setup; plus we lose an hour as we cross time zones. Tomorrow night will be spent in Tallahassee Florida.
