Yet another wonderful morning, clear blue skies and warm. Last night was a little different though, very heavy rain, hail and thunder. We got up to the mid 70’s again today, obviously the weather gods know we are about to leave.
The day started off with a bit of a shock, TD Visa phoned me with a couple of questions about transaction on my credit card. Turns out some low life had topped up his/her Starbucks card to the tune of $200, bought a new Fido cell phone for $578 and stayed at a hotel! Luckily the Credit Card company system caught the transactions and somehow determined they were all fraudulent and stopped them; it won’t cost me a thing. The credit card is now in many pieces and a new one is on it’s way.
Once that was sorted we headed out to a road we had seen on our travels called East Fancy Bluffs Road thinking it would lead to some bluffs. It didn’t. We did find many bushes in blossom though.
Once back at the trailer we decided to sort out next years camping. As we are still planning the Alaska trip we were originally planning on only six weeks down south in the winter. That has now increased to 8 weeks! We found out that we can book into our original site in Foley for the month of March, that was the good news, the bad news is that Lyn has to spend January at home. We have booked in here for February and then move across to Foley Alabama. We can then store the trailer there and hopefully get booked in the following year on the start of a trip to the west coast.
After lunch Lyn headed off to the craft group and I finished off cleaning out the barbecue. Next up was wax and polish the rest of the truck; it looks pretty good when all the chrome shines!
Finally, I started sorting out all of my stuff that has to go back with us, we may need buy a bigger truck!
Tomorrow will be clean and pack day so that we can get going early on Thursday. There may or may not be a blog tomorrow, but I will do one more to finish the trip in the next few days.
