But it's a dry cold

Nov 14-15

But it’s a dry cold.

 


 

Who cares? Too cold. Got to go south.

 

 
 
 
 
Before you leave on a long trip Mom always said you should put on clean underwear and make sure to comb your hair. Norene took this to heart so she put in to Trudy’s new salon in Alliston on the way to Hughes RV in Orangeville (for a little jack warranty work – done well as usual). After a radical clip (she already had the underwear installed) she now has get up and go hair. I shot this artful (awful?) pic of the “before” – you’ll see plenty of “after” later.
 

 
Hughes finished their work quickly so we decided to hit the road, planning to drop into a Wal-Mart in Windsor for the for the night. Discovered that the Enroute on highway 401 allows overnight rv stays (fantastic idea Enroute!). We slept under about 60 lbs of covers – not a bad idea since the morning interior temperature was 41F. Not far enough south yet.

Following an uneventful border crossing we pointed the Winnie’s nose south on I-75 and discovered 2 things about interstates; 1) there are more semis on the road than stars in the sky and 2) we are the slowest (at 50-55 mph) vehicle on the road – in this picture the Oversize Load just finished passing us.

 

 

Smiley seems happy back there and the humans are starting to adjust. Intended to stay at the Flying J south of Hillview Kentucky but there was no space for us so we moved to the WalMart in nearby Sheppardsville. Another cold night (29F). Not far enough south yet.
