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.
Good God, that could have been an outright disaster!
