Saturday was extremely windy. How windy was it, you ask? Forty mph north winds with 50+ mph gusts. When we went to the store and John opened the truck door, a wind gust blew the door out of his hand. Luckily, the truck is substantial enough that it didn't break the hinge but it certainly took John by surprise. The rig shook and rocked for hours making sleeping difficult for me (not so much for John) lol. The wind was still blowing in Woodland Sunday morning but had lessened to only 15 mph so as planned, we headed down to Sacramento.
The drive from Woodland to Cal Expo RV Park took only 45 minutes . We had coordinated with Tom from Weigh to Go, LLC to get our truck and trailer weighed upon our arrival at Cal Expo. Tom was there waiting for us and got right to weighing both vehicles. The good news is that neither the truck nor the trailer exceed any weight limits. We've done well at keeping the weight down which for full-timers is quite an accomplishment. We've wondered where we have stood weight wise for almost two years now. It is a relief knowing our true weight (total, by axle, and side to side) - information all RVers need to know about their rigs.
After getting weighed and set up, we were starving and headed out for a bite to eat. When we returned, there was a used Gel packet stuck in our door. Now who would do that???? Oh yeah, John's cyclist friend Clyde must have stopped by and left his calling card. We got a good laugh at that realization. John gave Clyde a call and yep, Clyde had stopped by while we were gone. No paper or pencil to leave a note so he did the next best thing to let us know he had been here.
Something comfortable about being back in familiar territory.
