It’s a good thing I have plenty of time to prepare for my next trip. Summers in central FL are just grueling – temps in the 90s, humidity at least that high. Just walking out the door, I start sweating almost immediately. This afternoon I just needed to air up the 5er and truck tires. It’s not like I was using a bicycle pump to do it either. Some thunderstorms were in the area so there was no sun beating down on me. Nevertheless, just moving the air compressor from tire to tire had me dripping sweat in minutes. Those daily thunderstorms have also presented a problem. I’m still working full time so I’d planned on doing stuff after 6 PM, when it should’ve been a little cooler. Many days it was, cuz it was raining buckets.

Fortunately, I’ll be heading north in just 4 days. Probably not getting to much cooler weather for at least a week after that but at least it will be in the right direction.

Will I come back to Florida at some point in the future? Hard telling, not knowing. I know if it’s a summer trip it will be very short duration. Winter maybe, if I hit the lottery or find a decent workamping job. That leaves shoulder seasons. Fall doesn’t work since that’s still prime time for hurricanes. Maybe springtime when all the snowbirds are heading back home.
