Day 2701

 I woke up at 8, did the pet stuff, and had breakfast.  Then it was out to do the final prep for leaving.  I seriously underestimated the amount of work left to do.

It seemed to take forever to haul out the remaining stuff - toiletries, underwear, electronics, etc.  It didn't help that at times there was a light rain.  Hooking up took a little longer too because I was out of practice.  I'd totally forgotten about the tires - removing the covers, airing them up (both truck and trailer), and torquing the trailer wheels.  I'd wanted to get out by 11 or so.  We didn't leave until almost noon.

We stopped at the place in 1626 that I'd stopped at yesterday to get a safety certificate for the trailer.  We waited for over an hour for them to get to us.  All total it took an hour and a half.  I did go get lunch at Sonic while we waited.  That was a plus.

The trip to the RV park was fast and easy.  We even did a regen that ended just before we got to the park.  There was more trouble there though.  When I connected the water the bathroom faucet didn't work.  I unloaded the basement and removed the wall to look at the pipes.  There were no leaks and I could verify that water was getting to the faucet.  That meant the problem was the faucet.  I put the wall back on, reloaded the basement, and we left for registration.  We had an hour before they closed.

We got there in time despite some traffic delays.  We registered and bought ammo.  Abby was a great hit.  I was very pleased with the way she behaved.  Everybody liked her.

They were having beer and hor'dourves, so that's what we ate for dinner.  Abby got her share, but we made sure she didn't think she was getting fed from the table.

After that we came home.  I put off the faucet problem to tomorrow.  We watched some TV (there's too many commercials).  Then I watched videos on my tablet.  I'm not sure I'll bother with the StarLink.
