We left Gallatin County, Kentucky yesterday...eventually. We're usually late getting started, but I do believe we set a new record yesterday. Herb and Donnie loaded up the ATV.
Barnabas is joining us again, after oiling and a coat of wax to protect him from the dry Arizona climate. According to the Kaisers, he sat around the house and complained about the cold weather and being stuck in Verona. We sat him down where he can watch Herb's driving! We've decided he's a golden eagle, according to the bird book. I showed him the picture, and he agrees! There was a lot to do, clearing out stuff we'd stored in the brooder house, stowing things in the coach so they won't fall over while we're underway, putting in the slides, unhooking connections, etc. The biggest issue turned out to be hooking up the pickup. We hadn't towed it before so had to be sure we had the transfer case and gearshift in the correct positions. We put on the lights and towbar with Brandon Finn's help--he and Tonya Webster had stopped by to see us off. It's good to be on the road again! Michigan, here we come! At 11:30 in the morning!
