Leaving Raleigh, NC

I'm preparing to leave Raleigh, NC after spending a year here. Leaving San Diego for a place I had never visited before was tough, and the transistion was a little rocky. However, I've made some good friends and had a great time here, but it's time to move on. I love the city of Raleigh and have grown to love the people here.  Lots of excellent restaurants and things to do. There's a huge amount of parks and hiking trails to enjoy, and I wish I had the time to explore them more often. Also, there are so many kind and wonderful people here, and I am definitely considering coming back someday to make it home again.

I've prepped my RV for an extended road trip, and will be heading to my folk's place in New Mexico. I have a feeling that it's going to be dicey, crossing state lines during the coronavirus pandemic. I'm hoping and praying that I'll be able to travel easily without getting pulled over. I'm also concerned about finding RV campsites that are still open during this crisis.

I purchased a tow dolly for my Honda and will be picking it up in a week. It'll take some assembly, but I've been reassured that it can be assembled with a few hand tools and by one person.

I've got 28 days on the road before I plan on being in New Mexico on May 1st. All of the tourist places that I wanted to visit are closed for the time being, as well as all of the military RV campgrounds that I had planned to stay at. I'm hoping that I'll be able to boondock in small towns without getting noticed. If I'm successful, great. If not, it'll make an interesting post on this blog.

Say a prayer for me!
