In April 2007 we had sold our home in Michigan and moved into our new fifth wheel trailer to start our adventure of full timing and exploring in our RV. We started our blog so family and friends can track us and see what we are up to. You can double clink any picture to enlarge it.

We escaped!!! Free at last!!!


On Monday we escaped Gulf Shores. Saturday we ate shrimp at DeSotos with Don & Zola and Sunday we ate shrimp at the Shrimp Basket with Don & Zola. Shrimped out for awhile. Monday morning we pulled out for Biloxi, a short 107 mile drive. I think we surprised ourselves by packing up & towing like we never stopped for the winter, piece of cake. One itty bitty problem, as we crossed Mobile Bay I noticed the HitchHiker break away switch was blowing & flopping in the wind. If the pin pulled out the disk brakes on the HitchHiker would lock up. After passing through the Wallace Tunnel we pulled over in Mobile and duct taped it back up, I'll repair it when we get to Biloxi. Jody & Renato came over Monday evening to welcome us. On Tuesday we went to the kids house while they worked and did the laundry and washed the truck. In the evening we met them at Newk's for supper & then went to the $5 movies to see Paul, it was excellent but they could have had less swearing. Last night we had some niffty thunderstorms roll through all night long and we had LOTS of rain. Good to be travelling again!!
