Boomers' July Road Trip


Boomers' July Road Trip
Originally uploaded by sache47
It's not a simple thing getting ready to leave for a trip when you
live in the Keys, especially if it is hurricane season, which it is
right now. We have the porch furniture and barbeque pulled into the
living room, took all the plants down to be watered by Manuel,and
stored away our beach toys and bikes in the downstairs storage room.
Tomorrow morning Bill will pull all the hurricane shutters. We would
have pulled them tonight, but then it would be so dark in here in the
morning we probably never would get up. Then turn off the water, pack
up a cooler with lots of healthy breakfast and lunch food, and we're
off! I guess it's not that much work after all.
As you can see from the header, we tossed a coin on which car to take,
and gas mileage won and my back lost. Bucket seats! Yuck! So today I
went to Walgreens and bought all kinds of back comfort paraphernalia
which probably cost more than we will save on the gas!
