We made to the state park, yesterday, after a two-night stay near Ozark, AL. Campground about 20-25% full with most sites still lacking power. The park has done a superb job cleaning the place up. We were aware of a wildfire before Hurricane Sally hit, so we're seeing the remnants of both as we get out and walk/bike around.
We came in from the east via Pensacola and the beach highway this year. Visible hurricane damage was generally roofs, signs, downed trees, and fences. The hurricane/tornado resistant roofs did appear to fare better than traditional roofs.
As we plan to be here until March, I'll update the blog on a bi-weekly basis. The truck has an oil seepage that needs to be taken care of as well as some software updates. We developed another hydraulic leak in the trailer that appears to be the same leak we developed last year that made us leave the trailer in Elkhart for a month to get repaired while we traveled on to Virginia. We're competing with all the insurance claims from the hurricane, so it'll be a while before either is repaired. May have to delay leaving the area next year or just winterize the trailer and drag it back to Elkhart. We'll see.
In the mean time, here's some pictures we've taken so far. David
