High in the 90's today, clear blue skies, light breeze and a view of the mountains.
I have tor remember all this stuff as we prepare to head to the east coast. Watching the weather reports and RADAR maps for Florida has been .. interesting .. It just doesn't cool off there at night, so I can see why the big city doesn't really come to life till 10:00 P.M. on a regular basis.
Well, that'll probably fit our lifestyle OK, as we will be hiding out in an RV park somewhere, and only sojourn into the metropolis on our weekends. Besides, there are tons of beaches to discover and explore and a whole new part of the world called the Everglades to have a look at.
Tomorrow I'll be sleeping most of the morning and noon-time away, recovering from this stay-up-all-night and work thing we do around here. After that I'll likely poke around and continue trying to set up a wireless network in the house using only the cell phones as modems and connecting the computers through them via BlueTooth to hit the Internet. It'll likely be much slower than DSL, but for the price we wil be happy. It will also serve us to learn how to do this since these RV parks don't normally sport WiFi and we're not ready to hook up satellite TV/Internet yet (at $1,200 for an antenna, it may be quite some time! :) ) Using the cell phones' data plan should allow us to get on the internet pretty much anywhere there's digital coverage, and with Verizon it's quite a good coverage map.
Then I'll finish the projects on the KLR650 and deliver it to its new owner (sniff). I will be very sad to let go of this machine, but it's necessary to sell it both for the liquidity and the storage space problem while travelling and when we arrive in Miami. It's been an excellent machine, transporting me to the top of Alaska and climbing some amazing slick-rock in Moab. I hope it serves its new owner as well as it has me.
The list of "SOLD" items continues to grow, and it won't be too terribly long until we will be trying to pare down the last few things so we can move aboard the fifth wheel.
What an exciting week it has been!
