#109 We Forgot How!

The satellite is all fixed so now we have to get ready to vacate the rig so they can replace some floor. For the last 5 years whenever we traveled it involved water, electric, & sewer hook-ups. There was also campground reservation & planning travel routes. Now we are spending time in a hotel. It has been a while since we have had to pack clothes, toiletries, etc. Heck, we had to see if we even had luggage to pack our stuff. Full time RVing means taking it ALL with you...house, clothes, everything. This means never having to pack or decide what is needed at our next destination.

Well we have found a hotel with suites & that allows dogs. Both were important because at Foxy's age we didn't want to board her & wanted a kitchen of some sort to take advantage of the food we already had in our fridge. Once the rig is in the shop we don't want to keep coming back for things. I hope the less we bother them the sooner the job can get done. Today we will cook some things to bring with us, get a cooler ready, & pack up some non perishables. Tomorrow is dedicated to everything else. Some cabinets have to be emptied, laundry needs to be done, & clothes need to be packed.

We would have benefited from a refresher course in packing but will do our best. Also for 3 days we will have to amuse ourselves. We have to consider Foxy, we don't want to leave her in the room & she isn't up to a lot of activities. We will make do & I'm sure that it will all work out. Thursday we will be back in our home & on the road to continue our adventure. Here's hoping all goes as planned from our home in Elkhart because.....

Home is where we park it,
Frank & Mary
