Our new back yard. Was determined to work in the morning and ride in the afternoon, as the temps were expected to get near 60 today, but I had to find a cell phone signal, plus we needed to get our gas tanks for the generator filled, so I drove to the nearest town, about 15 miles away and got gas. I looked for a cell phone signal the whole way, and couldn’t find anything good enough for broadband, so I ended up back at the campsite without finding anything. I decided to head in the other direction (the way we came in) because I knew I had a signal before we arrived, and fortunately found a good spot off the road, at the quail area, where I could get some work done. I then spent HOURS trying to get everything done I needed to get done, watching the time slip away in frustration, until I concluded we weren’t going to have time to ride today, so I better just finish up everything I could and ride tomorrow. At least our got our travel plans confirmed for a flight to DC in a few weeks. Aaargh! Got back frustrated, by Hubby and spent the time productively, fixing a light on the trailer and doing some much needed spring cleaning like the windows. It was a beautiful day weatherwise, but fortunately, the forecast calls for more sunny and warmer days. Yeah!
