Back to the boat - Thursday November 29, 2012

Our flight was at 11AM and we were out of the house by 8AM. We do not expect to be back for another 6 months so we had to be very sure not to "leave the gas on".The biggest issue re long term storage in Arizona is lack of humidity, so we left with half a dozen 5 gallon buckets filled with water strategically spread around the house, plus the bath and all the basins filled. We even went to the trouble of "sealing" the toilets with cling wrap so that they did not dry up while we are away. (We did this when we left in March 2012 and all the buckets had dried up, and one toilet that had been unsealed.)

When we dropped of the rental car we noted that we had driven 1,300 miles in 9 days, just to and from Anthem and running around Phoenix. No wonder we felt a bit road weary.

Our flights were all on time and Kylie, Ryan and Oliver met us in Charleston Airport. They discovered today that their baby is a boy. We were back on the boat by about 8:30PM and in bed shortly thereafter.
