Kitty and I Have Arrived At Our Final Destination

It was only a 36 foot motor home and it took me 2 whole days to unload. I put two loads in storage, and made 6 trips to the apartment. Now I have a SUV so it was about as full as boxes would allow. I still have the final storage load in it and will deliver that soon. I got 3 fishing rods/reels, 2 tackle boxes, and misc little loose stuff. The apartment is packed full. There is only a single walk in closet and a entry coat closet. The bowling balls are on the bedroom floor and the rest that we have no place for is in boxes. So far just 3 boxes. There is a small spot in the bathroom that might do for them.

I got to go buy a printer stand this weekend. No, nothing for the printer and paper. And there is not a desk for the laptops yet. Will look for a small writing type of desk and chair. Put up a deposit for kitty today, ouch.

The rv is in the shop getting its 2 repairs, see past postings. I will pick it up Monday and put it up for sale. I guess you better put us down as no longer traveling and not an rv'r.

EDIT: the rv repair came to $1387.90. The rv is now at Motorhome Specialists for consignment sale. Wish us luck.

It was a good ride and we have slide into home. Do it if you can.

See ya!

I'm At Holiday Park, Benbrook Lake

I left the rv park in Schertz about 8:30 am and made it to here at 1:30 pm with a gas stop. I actually stopped 2 times for gas, the 1st at 3.05 per gallon and then later at 2.85 per gallon. I ended up putting in $118 gas in the rv.

Very nice trip, good weather, no problems. I will get the rv cleaned out and in to service to get the two items repaired prior to its sale. I suspect it will be several days before its worked on and hopefully not too expensive. But it is what it is!

I'm tired and will post the mileage, etc tomorrow. OH YES, the COE Holiday Park has a Hughesnet dish on the attendant gate. Maybe there is wifi there. Will let you know tomorrow.

Mileage: 533 from LLano Grande, 246 from my stop at Schertz, TX. No wifi it appears.

On To Home We Go

I should pull out about 8am and head on north. I will stop for gas some where, probably north of Austin and have the 1/2 tank needed to put it up for sale. First stop is the lake and depending on the time I'll take a load to storage and then a load of the food to the house. Tuesday is hopefully the rest of the contents with a 2nd load to storage and the remaining to the house. Tom Cat has a vet appointment for shots and clipping. then he gets to go to the house.

Got to get breakfast and then head out. Ya'll drive safe out there.
