R&R, Restored and Ready / by Dave Hileman

I hope and I certainly intend this to be the last of the Oliver Recovery Project. We left our very nice campsite near Nashville at a COE lakeside spot in the early dark hours to stop at, of all places, McDonalds. We needed good WiFi at precisely 8:00 EDT (or seven here) to try and score a campsite Gulf side in Florida for next March, that is right NEXT March. And we did get five nights.

Then we drove north to White House and an appointment to get our new inverter. This is a very well run professional place. The work was done fairly quickly and he gave us a thumbs up on the solar with an explanation, finally, as to why for several years our inverter did not work. WIRE SIZE.

While this was going on we met with a friend we had not seen for 41 years. It was so good to catch up with Joyce. We met at a super coffee & ice cream shop. And people have a hard time defining ‘‘heaven.”

I am still zonked. We moved to a commercial campground at 3:30 and have done very little except, set up, take a walk and buy what looks like fabulous take out food from the Chef’s Market- thanks to Joyce!

Maybe tomorrow with a decent rest tonight the actual trip can begin in ernest - or maybe from the campground. We may also have a surprise in a day or two to report. Think antlers.
