Two days to go and we seem to be on target for departure. Helen, Stu and Joshua invited us to their house yesterday to give us a farewell roast chicken dinner, which Helen prepared and it was scrumptious. Had time to prune their roses in the front garden (now that I am an expert, having done ours for the first time EVER! this year). Then it was a tearful goodbye and looking forward to seeing them in June. We were surprised how tough it was to say goodbye, but you can't have it both ways.
Bad news on the camera front, it developed a fault on our last trip and I posted it off for repair just after Christmas, only to find that in March I am still waiting for it to be returned to me. Very little I can do, except get it shipped to the USA when it is repaired. Now however we do have Sally's very nice Olympus camera that she was given at Christmas, so we hope that will work for the moment.
So it's onward to getting all the last minute jobs done to leave the house clean and tidy.
This is trip 15, in 2015! We arrived in Phoenix (AZ) on March 25th and traveled North and East, taking in Jerome, Mogollon Rim, Zuni (NM), El Morro, Farmington, Durango (CO), Ridgway, Black Canyon NP, Breckenridge and Golden. Moving North from there we have been to Fort Collins, Laramie (WY), Cheyenne, Fort Laramie, Chadron (NE), and on to Custer (SD) to explore The Black Hills, as far North as Devil's Tower (WY). From there we have driven East to Dreadwood,then on to pickup our mail in Box Elder before exploring The Badlands NP. We have been to the capital Pierre (SD Capital), before driving North up the Missouri to Bismarck, the capital of North Dakota. We have finished towing by driving via Fargo and Sauk Centre to Minneapolis, where we will clean and store the rig, ready for us when we return for Trip 16 in the Fall (DV). On this trip we have towed the trailer just over 2800 miles.
