Blue Ox Tow Bar

I finally did it! I got my tow bar for Somewhere so I can pull the Grey Goose everywhere I go. After I had a crash course in hooking it up, I headed into Nashville to load Somewhere up for a long weekend in East TN. This was a little dejvu because when I first got Somewhere my first trip was to East TN over Monteagle Mtn, towing was the same route. Nothing like breaking your teeth in on a 6% grade mountain towing something you aren't used to. The way I look at it is, I'm gonna have to conquer that mountain sooner or later, it or Rockwood Mtn are the ways to get to my hometown from Nashville. I made it and successfully. I felt like pulling over and jumping up and down and shouting "I did it!" but I didn't. I thought it though.

Coming back I was able to hook up and get on the road by myself. I suppose the crash course did the job.

One step closer to a full timing lifestyle.

Later...

That's terrific! I very proud of you! You always seem up for any challenge and, to me, taking on Monteagle Mountain was a challenge. Now that you have conquered that, everything else should be a piece of cake.
