We pulled the trailer into the yard at the Bolt Hole this afternoon around 2:30 PM.
After more than a week in the arid west where relative humidity seldom topped 15%, the last three days have been brutal. Both days at Geneva-on-the-Lake, Ohio, we had late afternoon thunderstorms that helped "cool" things off--if you consider the drop of 10 degrees a fair trade off for all the added humidity of puddles under your feet. Even this afternoon, as we pulled north from the NYS Thruway to the Bolt Hole we could see a haze in the distance to the north. Once driving up the road, we realized that the "haze" was in fact heavy rains. It poured for about 2 miles (10 minutes on the very bumpy backroad) and then the clouds shifted and the sun came out as we got to the gate.
It took us about 45 minutes to get things unloaded from the truck and trailer and moved into either the cabin or Terry's car. Then, after an early dinner, Terry headed back to NJ for her Saturday EGA meeting. It will be my job to clean out the rest of the trailer and flush the tanks before putting it back in the barn until the end of August.
I'll be posting more about our trip in the next few days. Right now I'm still rocking from all the driving. Rough estimate: 3400 miles between June 27 and July 15.
