We're on track to head out for Topsail Hill State Park near Destin, Florida next week. Pumpkin is nowhere near ready and the weather has not been too favorable to get it ready, but beginning this weekend it should be better.
I drove Pumpkin to Forsyth yesterday to get a funky valve stem changed out. We had to replace it on the trip out to Custer State Park in 2011. I had all 6 valve stems changed before we left because one had failed. As it turned out, the tire shop screwed one up and it leaked. The replacement wouldn't accept the extension so it was a real pain to air up. Anyway, it's fixed now and the trip also served to check out Pumpkin on the road. All seems good. What's left now is cleaning, straightening up, de-winterizing and loading...that's all.
So, if all goes well, we'll be hitting the road on March 14, nearly a year to the day from our last trip before my neck surgeries started.
We have reservations for Mar. 17-23. Dusty and Traci will be there, too, in the site right next to us. I'm pumped.
