We've Left On Our First Of Many Adventures - On The Way To Ft. Pickens


Well we've done it. We are on the road for a month preparing ourselves and our coach for full timing starting in June of 2017.  We rented a tow dolly to see how it worked with towing Martha's car. So far so good but mounting the car on the dolly is truly a pain in the ass.

Our 9:30 departure from Fayetteville was delayed by nearly an hour by a leveling jack that refused to retract. I had to manually release it using the solenoid valve under the hood.  Once that was solved we got the tow dolly from UHaul and started south.  We are currently in the Harrow's Casino parking lot just across the Mississippi in Greenville, MS.

We had a somewhat dissatisfying dinner and gambled away $20 total but hey, we're boondocking for free. This place has truck parking and a large parking lot that you can pull your coach into. They (security) suggest the truck lot on busy nights.

The next stop for us is at Fairview Riverside Park in Madisonville, Louisiana and our favorite restaurant on the planet "Mortons Seafood" on the Tchefuncte River.  We are there for two nights and then head to Biloxi, Ms.for a night and finally to Ft. Pickens. Florida for two weeks. I will do my best to take some photos tomorrow. Stay tuned.
