Unpleasant sleeping weather and Sedona-bound

An interesting evening trying to sleep through a low front that passed through in the middle of the night.  Free camped at the gift shop parking lot just outside the park boundary.  They offer some free sites with a picnic table for overnight campers.  Ran the generator a bit to charge our batteries.

Watched a movie on the ipad after dinner, then went to bed.  A couple hours later the trailer was swaying back and forth.  Wind was cranking from the south, which was perpendicular to us and testing the wind resistance of the Rpod.  That seemed to last a couple hours before we both got back to sleep.

Around 3am, the torrential rains began.  Had to quickly run outside to bring the generator inside.  Wet and chilled I returned to bed and laid awake for another couple hours before falling back asleep.  Luckily the trailer seems to be water tight with no leaking.

Back on the road today heading further west into Sedona, AZ.  Wasn’t an original planned destination, but we have pretty much tossed that plan anyways.  Few folks we met along the way were impressed by the area, so we are gonna check it out for a couple days.  Hopefully get a round of golf in too!  Bunch of free camping available in the national forests around Sedona, so that is our planned destination today.
