When I attempted to put the truck camper back on the truck, I discovered that the truck camper’s corner jacks are not strong enough to lift truck camper with it full of stuff, so Trish and I went to town and bought a farm jack which we used today to help unload the front jacks to be able to lift the front of the truck camper so we could get the truck camper back onto the truck:
As we worked, a hot air balloon flew over and landed a few hundred yards away on the road:
I took a few farewell pictures after the truck camper was on the truck:
I reluctantly dropped off Trish at the airport before driving east to overnight at a rest stop on Interstate 70 near Glenwood Springs, Colorado:
