Today, with any luck, we will leave California. We might be back (though Jett swears otherwise), but it won’t be for a year or more, I suspect.<\/p>\n
To get out we need to travel through record heat along a road with no travel services for 100 miles and probably without cell phone service most of the way. I hope the truck is up to it – hauling a 15,000 pound trailer while also pumping out cold air for us and the dogs. But we will have plenty of water and someone will help us, I am sure, if we are unlucky enough to break down.<\/p>\n
I have reduced the air pressure in the tires by 3 or 4 pounds, in anticipation of them getting very hot. That’s my biggest worry – a blowout.<\/p>\n
I have enjoyed California, for the most part. The weather, despite the rainy December, has been excellent. Jett hates the water and is adamant that we aren’t coming back. But I think when she feels the humidity in Florida, or sleet in Massachusetts, or mosquitoes most everywhere, she will appreciate the dry climate of southern California.<\/p>\n
Anyway, we have been living in a beautiful place for 4 months. Here is one final photo from Rancho California.<\/p>\n
