November 14--On the Road Again

Yes, we are finally on the road again. After being at home for 2 months, we are headed for Arkansas and Texas. While we were home we made modifications to the rv. Bob added 2 200 watt solar panels to the roof of the rv. We also added a Wilson trucker antenna to receive signals for our new wireless aircard. Due to power fluctuations last summer, we now have a Frank's autoformer to keep our power regular. For those places we stay that have no tv reception, we have Direct TV receiver and satellite dish.

If you read our blog during our first retirement trip, we had trouble with the truck. To remedy that we purchased a new Honda CR-V to tow behind the motorhome. We outfitted it with new kayak racks and a brake buddy for added security when driving in mountains.
Our first stop of this is Grassy Pond FamCamp which is run by Moody AFB in Valdosta, GA. After arriving at Grassy Pond, we walked the 3 mile trail around Grassy Pond.

Tomorrow we are heading for a Corps of Engineer campground at Lake Seminole on the Georgia, Florida, Alabama borders.

Bob,
Wow, nice trip, nice going!! Too bad we all couldn't go with you. Beautiful pics also! Next week I will be cruising to the Panama Canal and those Columbian Islands. Although I don't plan to get off the boat (unless I really have to, for Marlene's sake)I plan to piss into the Panama Canal from the balcony of my room/suite. Take Care.

Congrats on your new wheels! I've always liked those CRVs.
