Good luck and I'm sure you will have a great experience. Ha! I'm less worried about the truck as I am overloading the camper. Our first stop is The Fort. Our second stop is getting individual wheel weights! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ependydad...Doug 176 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Or departure time went from a target of 3pm to 6pm to 8pm to "to heck with it- we'll leave when we leave". A horrible dinner in the truck McD's after 9pm and we were finally off just before 10pm. Here's one last picture of our house. Our TPMS provided me with a ton of comfort. One of my trailer tires was down to 60psi from 80psi. The tire pressure monitor let me know that it stayed safe for the drive. I'll keep an eye on it, as that's really weird. Just goes to show- CHECK YOUR TIRES BEFORE EVERY DAY! We were going to stay at Kosmos Village RV Park, but my cousin invited us to stay with her. Little did she know that our plan was to park on the street and sleep in the camper; so that's what we did. This morning, we had a big breakfast with my cousin, her hubby, her brothers, an my aunt and uncle. It made for a very late morning, but was wonderful anyway! And now, just shy of noon- we are off!

keith_h 420 Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Glad to hear your off. Enjoy the journey. Having moved more times than I've wished I've learned to always expect to be on the road much later than planned. To that end I've always reserved a hotel room for move out night and hit the road the following day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ependydad...Doug 176 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 My aunt and uncle: My cousins and hubby: My wife's and my food! Our accommodations for the night: The only trick is its a dead end with a cul de sac at the end. The cul de sac wasn't quite big enough, but we used a driveway and got out OK. Random others... My doors like to pull my hair without kissing me first: I checked my air pin box using my camera vs. getting down low. And, it looks like little feet were in my truck yesterday. Speaking of yesterday, here's a shot of how I carry bikes (similar to before, but the hitch receiver had to be rebuilt when I got the air pin). More from yesterday, my little helper: Unfortunately he didn't save me from my hose. I was 2-for-2 for disconnecting the hose and not accounting for the water pressure for a while.

twiceblessed....nacole 433 Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 Still dancing with excitement over here for you guys! Wish we were on the road with y'all! Oh... and I know you mentioned that you probably would not post on the blog every day (which I completely get... lots to do in a day!), but try and post once or twice a week (have Mandie post too!) simply because it will be a great way for you guys to record the memories of your year :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We met another family through Fulltime Families who happen to live in the Orlando area. They came out *to have dinner with us* (annunciates, lest I become a cannibal again :D ). http://nowornever.learntorv.com/2015/07/new-friends.html keith_h 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
