Preparing for liftoff..

March 31st, 2009

After two months in the Bay Area, Magic and I are cleaning up and getting ready to hit the road again.  It’s been a long time since we towed; it’s about two days of work to get everything ready.  (Mainly cleaning things up and putting them away — lots of clutter has built up since we parked..)  And also, had to do the obligatory farewell dinner with two of my good friends, Chris and Alex:

We’ll also be doing a three-day stint with no hookups from Thursday-Sunday.  Not a big deal for water, but I’m not sure the engine will be running enough to keep the batteries charged.  Makes me wish I had made the investment in a generator or solar — though probably not worth the money at this point.  Maybe next year.

While I will miss the redwoods, great hiking trails, living next to a stream, and the friendly staff at Saratoga Springs, staying in one place for too long sortof defeats the purpose of airstreaming in the first place.  Lesson learned – one month stints are the new rule, unless there is some very compelling reason to do otherwise..

530pm departure for Chico.  See you out there.
