Camping Local

This afternoon, I picked up the trailer and brought it to Rivers Edge RV Park here in Fairbanks. It is a full hookup site with 30amp power, water and sewer. I wanted to sanitize the fresh water system as I hadn’t done that for a while. Having water and sewer makes that whole process easier. They also had a high pressure washer so I was able to remove some of the grime from last May’s trip through Canada.

We will be here for a couple of days and on Monday, we head south towards the Anchorage area. Lots of stuff to haul back from the house including two dogs and a cat. Yes, we are trying the cat out on a short trip. We’ll see how the cat likes travel. She’s a completely indoor cat so it probably won’t be an issue.

One but of the nicest benefits is the trailer has A/C. Especially on a hot, smoky day like today. Being able to retreat to cooler temperatures is nice.

    1. I wrote hmmmm due to recollection of my experiences hauling a cat around in a car when moving to new duty stations.....and to Colorado from the DC area....cat hair everywhere.

    2. So far, the cat rides in a carrier while in the truck and seems pretty relaxed while in the trailer. The dogs seem more “concerned” that the cat is along. But it’s only the first day.

  2. My cat hated travel with a vengeance. It sure would have redecorated your trailer, and your dogs would have needed therapy sessions.

    1. So far, not much but there hasn’t been much driving. That starts tomorrow. We have ~350 miles to cover in the next two days.
