Hey all,

I officially retired Feb 27 and on March 4 at 3am left the metro DC area on a
road trip across the USA to Wickenburg Az.

I have a Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel pulling a 34 foot Carri-Lite 5th wheel trailer
packed with belongings and 1 retired racing greyhound and 1 150 pound Irish
Wolfhound.

Just missed the hurricane weather overnighting in Harrisonburg Va on 3-4.

Spent the night of 4-5 in Fort Chiswell Va. this morning woke up to everything
frozen solid. It was 100% humidity last night and all that wet froze into a thin
sheet of ice on everything. Waiting to thaw out so I can bring in the slides on
the trailer.

Southern Va is a world all it's own, 180 degrees from N. Va. I was fueling up
the truck and the guy in front of me had a 70's pick up with metal kennel in the
back and there must have been 12 beagles crammed in there. Cammo every
where............ don't suppose he was going hunting do ya???
yeahuh.

Next stop, Kingsport Tennessee where I hope to ride out the back spin of the
major snow event headed for DC area.

More later

Alice
