Delay due to fog

006

I had a very ruff night due to my back pain and leg being numb. All the packing and cold was too much for me. We were suppose to be up early and on the road by 8 am .. well that was the plans anyway. Of course our plans are usually written in jell-o and can be scratched out and re-written. 005

I tried to lay back down since the temps were so cold that we decided to move our pull out time to 10 am. Of course i couldn’t get back to sleep so i got up and finished the last minute packing. It’s a good thing we don’t move often because i have junk stored in the front of the cab. So since we have to use the front when driving it has to go some where when were in rolling mode. So it goes in the dinette seats. As 011 you can see from these pictures they are loaded down with junk as hubby called it. Actually in the 2nd picture is where the desktop computer rides, DVD player, a laundry basket filled with books, bibles, pen & pencil holder, scrap paper, DVD’s, and anything else i don’t have room in a compartment for but do not want to store outside in the compartments. On top of the printer box is the Atlas and truck stop book needed for the trip. The other seat stores the printer, extra covers & pillows. In front of the freezer is my sewing machine, rug that goes over the freezer to keep the table from scratching and our shoes we will be wearing.

As you can see even our bedroom floor has our crate of shoes that usually is stored in the floorboard of the passenger seat.

It turned out that it didn’t make any difference i was down in the back because when I got up it was only 17 degrees outside! There is no way either of us was going to try to get things done or even try to start Ms. Southwind in such cold weather. So we decided to just wait until it warms us. i raised the blinds to find another surprise … look ….yes … Fog

Here is what it looked like outside this morning it’s 9 am and still looks like this. So of course Ms. Southwind will not be rolling anywhere until this fog clears up.

Will today be a rolling day … hmmm .. guess you’ll have to stay turned to find out … It’s 10 am still foggy, so of course it’s still not sure what time we will be pulling out or if we will … until the weather clears we will be staying parked .. new time is set for 12 pm. Hmmm …

It’s 11 am and it has cleared some what so we are unhooking and getting to roll on the road …. so until next time …
