Well I thought hauling a couple of small trailer loads and putting the stuff in the house was quite a bit of work. But yesterday I emptied out a lot of the stuff I've been hauling in the motorhome. Yikes. Must have pulled 500 pounds of seldom-used stuff out of there. Then filled the water tank from the spidery pumphouse, sprayed the RV off, and day was winding down. Figured I could then hitch up quickly, but no, it turned into a 30-minute sweatfest. Problem, the cargo trailer had tipped up off its hitch block the other day when I emptied it and walked onto the exit ramp, and then came down crooked onto bare ground. I was able to right it and re-set it on its block, (by reaching into the garden for heavy stones to weigh down the door, then reset the block, then let it come down. Kind of like "Why Paddy's Not at Work Today". Unfortunately, it wound up at a rakish angle, and that made it difficult to line up for hitching. Well it's done, and the load-out of stuff for the trip is just going to have to wait til morning. Sometimes things just take as long as they take.
