HELENA, AL: Last Day

It's been another great visit with the family here in central AL.  Everyone arrived as planned.  The weather has turned very cold and we've decided to head south one day earlier than originally planned so we can avoid the worst of the next Arctic blast.  Tomorrow we'll head to Summerdale, AL near the Gulf coast.

We've spent the last 6 days parked on John Wilder's property (ham radio friend) on top of a hill not far from Kathy's house.  His vehicles and boat, including his motor home, are stored in a very large metal building that also contains his apartment - quite a set up.  We've been provided with a water hookup as well as a 30 amp electrical hookup.  This type of stay at a friend's or relative's site is known as moochdocking.  We are very grateful to John and Peggy for providing the site to us as well as the chance to get to know them a little better.

The past two weeks of family time have been wonderful, but it's time to get the wheels rolling under Little House once again.
