First night in Earl!

Well, we finally settled in to the camper for night number 1. In many ways it is great and in many ways it is not. It gets harder and harder as the years go by to settle in to such a very small space - especially with someone else. Even though it is someone I love! (Has he ALWAYS made all those noises?) We are thrilled to only have two small leaks in the water system to this point, which is an unusually small number considering the camper is 20 years old. Otherwise things are good and we enjoyed a much needed salad for dinner accompanied by some carrot soup I had made before we left. (Kept in the fridge for the trip in case anyone wondered.) At one end of the campground there is a fabulous open space for Scooter to run in and he took full advantage of this. We are all feeling somewhat stiff and sore from the many hours spent in the car but the sun has been shining and the temperature has been rising, both of which help to keep the spirits bright. Tomorrow we will go down to Brunswick Georgia and meet up with some cruising friends who sold their boat last year and are spending the winter on St. Simons island. In the meantime it seems the dinner dishes have not yet washed themselves so I had better get to them. Cheers!
