Away We Go

47 minutes behind schedule is not too bad. We don't have a schedule to keep or anything. But we are who we are. We have a scheduled departure time.

This is our shake down trip - our trial run for the season. We need to make sure we have everything and that everything works. It's a reasonably big deal this time - we have lots of changes.

First, meet Zilla, our new (to us) truck. We upgraded our truck from the GMC 2500 to a Ford F250 with the 7.3 liter Godzilla engine "Zilla". She is supposed to get better gas mileage, we will see. But we got her mostly because I wanted a nicer truck. My Lovely and I both got something in the deal. I got the nicer truck, and My Lovely got to do something sweet to spoil me.

I'll talk more about other changes in future posts, but for now - in this moment - we are driving south to Gulf State Park enjoying the new green peeking out if the trees, listening to our music and looking forward to some true down time.

We have almost no plans. Relax, watch the dogs, a couple of short rides, and peaceful togetherness.Read more
