Time Squeeze
Time grows short even as the days grow longer. We're in the midst of trying to get everything sorted, discarded, recycled, donated, shredded and cleaned up. We've only got a couple of months to finish and it doesn't feel nearly long enough.
The time for panic is soon upon us, but we're trying to avoid that as much as possible.
It is apparent that we should have purchased the Enterprise instead of a motor home, based on all that we think we'll need. Of course, the biggest problems are "might needs" and "like to haves". Those things simply won't fit. I'm not sure all the "needs" will fit!
Already our travel plans have changed due to the time we need to spend in South Dakota, where we think we intend to domicile. We will need to spend at least 30 days within the cozy confines of South Dakota in order to accomplish all we need/want to get done. We think we probably will have to miss the Winnebago Grand National Rally again this year. Good thing they have the GNR every year.
But Paige, Robin, LeAnn, Marcia, Lynn and the family reunion in Indiana are still on the plan. Lucky them. We'll still arrive in Arizona about mid-November and stay a while in Tucson. I personally would love to spend March up in Peoria, attending the Mariner's Spring Training games, and maybe even tailgating a few times. I hear those stadiums have great tailgating accommodations.
So if you don't hear from us for a while, it's because we're busy trying to clear out 25 years of residence and 44 years of accumulation. But right now, the adventure is scheduled to begin in early June. This is of course, subject to delay and depends quite a bit on Jason and Lauren's needs.
