We stay in a place for a
few days. We see weather coming. We look at the forecast for a
hundred miles in every direction. We go to the most favorable. Now
we’re in Louisiana.
We wake up, have some
coffee, work a bit, take a walk, and take advantage of every internet
opportunity. (Sometimes that requires a trip to the closest town.)
Life around camp, the small things take up more time, and much of the
day. There is one configuration of the van for driving, another for
hanging out around camp, and another for nighttime. Each transition takes
a surprising amount of time shuffling stuff. I make the coffee every
morning. We got a Coleman camp stove, and now Judy fixes us something for
dinner most every night. (Sometimes we still eat dinner in town, early in
the day.) We watch the sunset (It’s only five o’clock.), then write a
trip report (It won’t go out because whatever internet we can get has gone away
by then. Who knew the internet would only work while the sun was
out? We might need to take a look at Starlink.) It’s cool at night
so we’re back inside. We have shore power so we can run the space
heater. We turn everything off at night and sleep at whatever the outside
temperature is. It works.
Jimmie Davis State Park in
Louisiana. It was a little wet when we got here. (But not crowded.)
Then it cleared up.
