On the road again



My two month stay in Elephant Butte New Mexico comes to an end tomorrow and I will be heading to Colorado. The two months here at Cedar Cove have been very productive. First I had the caulking removed from the roof and replaced with Eternabond by Dave Martin. I should be good for several years on the new roof.

Then Chip Baker took care of my electrical problem that had baffled two certified techs over four visits in the  in the Valley without a solution. Chip had the problem solved in 30 minutes and it's worked flawlessly since.

 I also had the opportunity to renew friendships with Clay and Loren two longtime friends. I also made some new friends including fellow blogger Barbara Dewell and her faithful companion Katie of Me and My Dog fame who visited in the park for about three weeks.

 It has begun to heat up a bit here in the park, but the weather over the Midwest is a bit unsettled. My plan is to head to the eastern plains of Colorado for a few days and hopefully I will find a clear weather window to move to Hannibal and then on to Iowa. Fingers crossed, here we go.

    Sounds like a couple of fun months.
    Do watch that weather in the Midwest. It seems like the weather has been crazy since since this past winter. Safe travels.

    When I drove by the Hannibal exit on I-70 last week, I thought of John Hedges. When I returned home Thursday the humidity was a rude awakening. :)
