Clarksboro, NJ 61°
We had a leisurely morning, which probably wasn’t a good idea because we have a long drive today. We spent the morning on the computer trying to line up a vehicle to pick up the stuff in storage at the condo in Seattle. We settled on a 10’ truck. We don’t have enough stuff to fill it even half full. But, it’s what we could pick up in Seattle and drop off in Reno.
We strapped things down and pulled in the bedroom. I noticed about 30 ladybugs huddled in the corner of the slide. We grabbed the vacuum and sucked them all up and then vacuumed around all the slides as we brought them in. Hopefully that will be the end of those horrible bugs. We spent all eve grabbing them and throwing them out the door.
It rained hard all night. We were in a little lake this morning when we got up. It continued to rain this morning as well. We packed everything up and hit the road at 10:30. It rained all through New Jersey. It rained all through New York. It rained so hard in Connecticut you could stab it with a fork. Ha Ha thought I’d be a little funny as we’re drowning.
We finished the book “Namesake” so now we are listening to “Rhett Butler’s People” by Donald McCaig.
It really and truly did POUR in Connecticut. Visibility was about 2 feet. It was awful.
We finally entered Massachusetts at 4:30pm. It was still raining very hard.
At 6:40 (with our “get gas Now” light on) we arrived at the spot we wanted at Hanscomb. I will be here for the entire month of Nov so we had to make sure it was the right one. The entire place has an inch of water everywhere and it was still lightly raining. But by 7 pm we were all settled in with the heat and the fireplace on and in for the night. Yea!
