Two Daughters Down...

It is Saturday am. We had a very busy but satisfying week with Daughter #1, and are preparing to move. There is a family day planned with my siblings at my sister's farm, and we would like to get there this morning.
9am - hitched up the trailer in a steady drizzle
9:30 - pulled out of our parking spot in the side yard, but the bottom of the trailer did not clear the bump up to the sidewalk
9:35 - picked up cylinder storage pod and entire electric front stabilizer bar from the street and stored in daughter's garage.
11:00 - got to a Flying J to dump the grey water sewer from the trailer
11:15 - walked 1k in steady rain to buy a new sewer hose to replace the one in the cylinder storage pod we left in daughter's garage
12:30 - find out new sewer connection doesn't fit.
12:40 - throw caution to the wind and decide to drive to sister's, anyway. It's bound to be better weather tomorrow!
1:20 - get to sister's in pouring rain to park in (blessedly) dry storage. Changed out of very wet pants and shoes.

Despite the damp early start to the day, we had a great family time with lots of food and wine. Except now they are predicting rain all week...
