6/1/17 - This morning went well with getting the RV ready for travel.  I got up a little before 8am and started to close things up one room at a time.  I then determined where I thought I would park the RV to put the car on and knew there was a little brown wooden fence in front of a cabin and that would be beside me.  No problem, straight shot.  I then was concentrating on the left side to make sure there was room for cars to get by while I was hooking up the car when all of a sudden I heard and strange noise and I could not believe that I was tight up against that fence.   I pulled the RV out a little and decided on another place to hook up the car.  I then noticed a scratch on the side/back area so went on about my business.  I left at 10 25.  Traveling went well but I got really hungry at noon so stopped early for lunch.  After lunch I checked the car and noticed that one side of the door to the water heater was unfastened so stupid me did not assess the situation and opened up the door.  Here when I hit the fence, I also hit that door and now I could not get it shut!!  I tried to push the door up on the left side so I could close and I feel I might have moved it a little but not enough.  A truck driver was very kind and assisted me but he did not want to try and move the door which I felt could be done by a stronger individual than me.  Well, the next thing, I knew, he returned with two used cords of something and tied me up enough so I could go on.  It held so he must have done a good job.  I will take a picture tomorrow and post tomorrow.  I am just so upset with myself because I also try not to move until I am all clear but I thought I was clear on the right so I concentrated on the left.

It was quite warm traveling so I had to stop again to fill up my tea container and I finally got to Walmart in Adel, Georgia at 4 45pm.  I was glad to be here.  The stupid GPS took me around the back side and I am not sure why but the next thing I knew I was on a very bumpy dirt road!!  I could not believe it.  I have not checked the upper cabinets where the dishes are but time will tell if everything survived.
