What is it about our plans and returning to the boat???? Nothing seems to go as we thought. Remember last July? We returned to that stinky refrigerator mess of foul smelling stuff...104 degree heat...in addition to all the stuff we brought that had to be put away. Well, this wasn't that bad...but nothing has gone as planned today. We left Wichita on time, loaded to the gills and arrived here a little ahead of time...thanks to great tail winds. Only to discover that the Tumbleweed was still sitting where we left her...high and dry. Three hours later she made it to the water...we were parked and ready to load and clean...except that there was no water pressure. Couple of hours later, Alan (our new best friend) and Floyd had located the disconnected hose, fixed the vapor locked valves, and refilled the water tank. By then the wind was blowing 30 miles an hour and the temperature had dropped to 38. We thought we would be warmer...not exactly. We are gonna sleep good tonight.

Glad to see your post and know that you have arrived. We don't have the wind but expect the temp to drop to 20 tonite which is cold for Arkansas!
