Today Was a Better Day

We made up some of the lost time. Up at 6:00, packed up and on the road by 7:00. We only stopped for feul and necessities. We managed to make it all the way to Motel 6 in Council Bluffs Iowa. If we get far enough south tomorrow and the temperatures are good, we will sleep in the trailer and feel at home tomorrow night.

What a Day!

We planned to be away early, but of course, the best laid plans etc. etc. We woke this morning to "No Hot Water", (Something wrong with the boiler?) not that we have to do anything about it, and it should be fine when we get home, but that meant no showers, and boiling water to do dishes and clean out my fridge. By the time we got out to get the trailer, and drove from the north end of the city to the south end, we really didn't leave Winnipeg behind us until around 11:00 am. Next we ran into a huge line up at the border. It took us from 12:10 til 2:30 to clear through the border. It has all been very tedious, bucking strong south winds all day, which really slows us down. So we called it a day when we got to Fargo around 6:00pm.

We're Off

Well, It's time to start our travel blog for another year. The plans for our trip are not totally finalized as yet, but one thing we know for sure is we are leaving right after Christmas, and will be spending January in Weslaco, Texas.
