OUR FIRST STORM

We survived our first storm!  :)

We have been doing great here. Adjusting to the new sounds from our unit and the peace and quiet that comes from about 7pm on. It is amazing! We both are so relaxed and we have been sleeping really well. Until the night of the storm, hahaha.

We had 80-100km/hr winds and the trailer was rocking! Its like being on a boat. Something to definitely get used to. We went to bed at our usual time and tried to sleep. What we forgot was that we are only about 2 feet below our slide toppers, which, if you have them you know, rock back and forth and make a clunking sound. Needless to say it was a very restless night. The sound of the rain has always been soothing to us both, so that bit hasn't been a problem at all.

We didn't realize how many other RVers are out there, living full time in their units until now. We thought we would be the only ones getting up at 5am and heading off to work... nope, there are 8 others around us doing the exact same thing! We are even the "late" risers! We haven't really met anyone around us yet, the weather needs to co-operate for us to be outdoors more often, but everyone always smiles, waves & says hello. This is a  nice change of pace from the usual way you meet your neighbors (dogs barking, who is on whos property line etc....). It is nice to meet such cheerful people who are living the dream, just like us!

till next time
