It's getting down to the wire now and the excitement is building. Only seven days until we are back on the road. The past few days we started putting things away outside the rig and prepping the trailer and truck for travel. All twelve tires (yes twelve!) are aired up and checked for safety. We brought the slides in and the landing gear up to make sure all the hydraulics were working fine after sitting for almost five months. All is well and ready for the road. Laundry is done and some last minute shopping was taken care of while the check list is getting shorter.
Like I said, only seven more days. To stay with the sports analogy it is first down and goal. That means two days off, two days of work, two more days off, and then the wheels start rolling. It is raining today and more is forecast for tomorrow so we are prepping the inside of the trailer. Cabinets are organized and secured for travel, and everything is getting a good cleaning. Tomorrow we do our last big laundry and a last stop at the grocery store for anytthing we may have forgotten.
The past couple of years we have started getting ready earlier than usual. The last minute rush to get things done was insane and we both had had enough. Now we start sooner, at a relaxed pace, and take breaks as needed, both physical and mental. In fact I am on a break right now and it seemed like a good time to blog, but break time is over and back to the check list we go.
So until the next blog, that I guess will be soon, goodbye from our home in upstate New York because.....
Home is where park it,
Frank and Mary
