Running the Roads-Aug. 10
Started the morning out on a high note...the campground has a free Continental Breakfast. So, since nothing is free that means we paid for it in the camp fee, we went to get our $$ worth. Good juice, cereal, toast and coffeee. Then back to the camper to close up and get on the road. So far, so good...doing a "walk around" I noticed some water dripping where it should not have been dripping from and determined it was the dew running off a newly closed slide. However, looking upward we noticed a tear in the rubber roof. Curt wanted to get it patched before today's rain. Thank goodness for the drip or we might have missed it on the "walk around". We passed through a little rain and a couple of detours in getting here today. There is road work going on all over the state and we've been trying to hit the state roads and not spend all our time on the Interstates. Here is a question for you? How deep is your frost line? Curt was speaking with the campground owner over breakfast and they were discussing the camping season and the types of hydrants. They cannot use the type that can be left on during the winter like we have at home because the frost line here is TWELVE FEET DEEP! We are in Jordan, MN and will probably stay over another night since the weather is not looking condusive to traveling for another day. We are sitting under a tornado warning at the moment, altho the TV just showed the "red box" a little north of us. The TV is all pixilated with the weather disturbance. The rain has started so I should shut down....until the next time...bye-bye
