Saturday, Sept. 15: We
got home without incident and jumped right back into our routines of laundry,
lawn care, gardening, socializing, etc. Sadly, MSU was soundly beaten, 20-3, by
Notre Dame in a night game at Spartan Stadium. We had a nice harvest waiting
for us of 1 pound of green beans, 1¼ of cucumbers, ½ pound of red bell peppers,
1 pound of broccoli, and 4 kinds of tomatoes. We had driven 2072 miles and the
new Ford 150 truck with Ecoboost got over 16.3mpg, pulling the trailer and all
our gear, with two kayaks strapped on top. I rode my bike for 2 hours & 44
minutes or around 30 miles. It’s hard to know how far we hiked, since it was a
combination of kilometers and miles but we lost a little bit of weight so it
was enough to offset our nightly Happy Hours, anyway. All in all, it was
another very successful trip!
More than seven years into retirement, we sold our TrailManor camper in July 2017 and "moved up in the world" into a Flagstaff UltraLite trailer with a Murphy bed that hides away during the day. Domestic travel will often be in it as our goal is to sleep in all fifty states. Only Delaware and Oklahoma to go, but we'll continue to visit all over the USA, and work on the Canadian provinces, as well. Foreign travel is not with the trailer, obviously, but we have many places still on our Bucket List. Come here to follow our adventures. And please leave a comment!
