Late December - Family Time

Picture
After leaving Jacksonville and the RV behind on the Sunday before Christmas, we made a whirlwind tour for the holidays, visiting Cathy’s family in Winston-Salem, NC; Dave’s Mom, sister and Adam and the boys in Whitehall, PA; friends Steve and Linda and Sue and Steve in Hampton, and finally Bonnie’s family in Jarratt.  By that time, it was New Year’s Eve.  We found ourselves pulling out with Orion Jr behind us on yet another rainy day.   Although we rarely saw the sun over the 2 weeks of travel, we were glad not to have to deal with snow and ice.  And we wouldn’t miss spending the holidays with family.

​Boat Stuff
 
We managed to squeeze in a brief visit to Orion during our travels.  Given the mild weather, she’s doing very well, but we took advantage of the warm temperatures to give her decks a good scrubbing.  She really needed it and looked much better as we left her again.
 
Orion Jr was crying out for some attention by the time we got back to her.  She needed a good cleaning as well both inside and out.  That would have to wait.  We focused on getting her ready to travel on the road.  The rest would have to be done in Florida.  We were grateful to our son-in-law Troy who did an amazing job backing her all the way from the back yard to the road around several obstacles.  With all the rain, there was some trepidation about getting stuck on the way out, but once we got started, we were fine.
 
New Year’s Day found us back in Jacksonville, back at the church where we left the RV. 
 
And, of course, we arrived in the rain.
