On Friday (May 15th) we relocated from Carrabelle Beach to Holt, Florida. Holt is located just west of Crestview, off I-10, in the western Florida panhandle.  We hit heavy rain during the drive and then later that evening, after setting up at Holt, experienced a heavy thunder storm. Maggie was a nervous wreck during the storm and huddled on our bed, her safe place, for a long time after we arrived.

Several weeks ago I’d made a routine service appointment for our truck in Crestview. This was before we accepted the new jobs requiring us to return to the east coast for training. We decided there was still time to travel west to Crestview for the appointment and then do a series of eastward hops for training in Myrtle Beach, SC.

It’s so dang hot and humid here right now and as the photo shows there’s not much shade in the park itself. I guess all parks can’t be at the beach! :-)

Note: The “5th Airborne” king pin box I installed on the trailer while at Carrabelle worked well making a noticeable difference in smoothing out the towing experience.
