A day of somewhat tedious packing, loading, clearing out, cleaning, and prepping Whitewater for it's fallow period. On the down side, too much lifting mixed in with the tediousness. On the up side, a modicum of fun trying to solve the puzzle of getting everything stowed. Also some fun in having have unlimited opportunity to mess around with rope and bungee cords.

I believe we are set for an early departure tomorrow, en route to points north. Perhaps we'll escape the cold, wind-whipped drizzle that bedeviled today's preparations.

In other words, a day spent fixing to get ready to go.
