We're off on our latest adventure!
Saturday, June 12, we bought a pickup truck. Sunday and Monday we worked our butts off and got a lot of the things that needed to come off the boat into storage. Tuesday we finished up with the last remaining items, sorted into three groups. Stuff that was going with us in the trailer, stuff that was going to Texas or Georgia and stuff that needed to go to storage. About 3:00 we left the storage place for the last time and headed to our friends Jay and Carol's (visited us in the Bahamas) house. They let us stay at their place on the Rappahanock River. Wednesday morning we drove to the other side of Richmond to pick up our new trailer. Thursday and Friday we (mostly Susan) worked on putting away what we could and getting the trailer organized. Friday evening Jay and Carol came and we proceeded to have a wonderful weekend with them and their friends the Mudds.
Sunday morning we left Jay and Carol and drove to Falls Church, Virginia to spend a couple of days with our friends Kent and Heather from Miss Adventure. Sunday night we had a lovely lake cruise with them and their friends Todd and Samira. Monday we went to their weekend place in Bryce, Va. More great times.
Tuesday morning, after cleaning up the mess created by liquor bottles that were not secured well crashing to the floor, we made a short trip to a campsite in Edinburg, Virginia. Tuesday night was our first night to sleep in the trailer, after owning it for almost a week. We're still working on getting everything put away but it's coming along. We're both pretty sure this is going to be a lot of fun. It's different than being on the boat, but it's still fun.
Here are some pictures of our trailer and our campsite.

The trailer came with a gas grill that attaches to the side |
And a side table |
If you're outside, they're around. Obviously they are used to being fed. |
