After a delightfully tranquil day at the KOA in Sturgeon Falls, it was time to move on. BN packed up inside; I unhooked the outside and slid in the slide outs. Then I did what I always do, I picked up my Leaving Check List and went from the back of the RV to the front, checking off each item as I went.
We pulled out of the site and slowly drove out of the campground. Something sounded a tad odd, but I feel that way most days when I first start driving. BN heard a different noise and then out of my window I saw a man (which his shorts only half done up, I might add) haring along behind us, waving frantically.
I rolled down the window and he pantingly gasped, “Your awning is out.” OMFG.
So much for the checklist. It was bound to happen. But it will not happen again.
