Getting ready to hit the road

It’s odd that in the middle of winter I think the ‘travel time’ is never going to get here. And then all of a sudden I’m in a flurry of activity trying to get ready for the ‘arbitrary’ day we’ve chosen to leave! Said date being …April 8th.

Every year we say “Well, at least we don’t have to buy a lot of stuff for the RV”. And every year we find something we just “can’t do without “. This year we are sporting a fancy new roof vent cover and a brace to steady the entry step.

The inside has been dusted and washed and lemon oiled. The bedding is freshly laundered…the curtains are next in line. The windows washed, the roof caulked, the Fantastic Fan repaired. And I am putting large things in imposssibly small places…thereby challenging the law of “there is no way in God’s wide earth this will fit”! (grin)

I declare by the time April 8th rolls around…WE WILL PROBABLY JUST BE TOO TIRED TO GO !! (Yeah, that’ll happen)!

I find that as much as I yearn for the excitment of travel…about this time the reality of leaving loved ones hits yet again. Thank goodness for E-mail. Almost everyday… you CAN “reach out and touch someone”. Just having that ongoing link means more then I would have ever guessed.04_03_2gettingready
