The big day is finally here and Butch is excited. He has been on standby this past week and he had a call last night in Arispe IA. Arispe is an hour and a half from us.Today I will be going to Creston to pick up my newly released man after his retirement party.
So I had best get to it!

Sitting in the RV with the furnace running. A sound I wish to remove from my life…or at least have it be an unusual sound. We need to fill the propane tank every week. Saturday we are heading south to Missouri. I am afraid it is quite chilly there as well so we do not plan to stay long.
We are busy taking care of last minute details. The water is shut off at Mom’s house. I still have gas and electric to call for both places.
Butch has the day off due to Veterans Day. Three more days of work for him and then we will be on the road. Listened to the song ‘Any Way The Wind Blows’ by Southern Pacific this morning. It seemed quite appropriate.

Just a few more days and we will be on the road. We are all a twitter. Night before last the temperature outside dipped to 15 degrees. Everything continued to work fine in our little home. We didn’t know it was going to get that cold or we would have been very worried. We never would have guessed that our water would not have frozen at that temperature.
Yesterday we winterized my mother’s house. Blew out the water pipes with an air compressor. Turned off the electricity and gas and made sure all was secure.
I ran across a box of pictures that created a walk down memory lane. There were pictures of my aunts and uncles long since deceased. There was one of me where I looked like a candidate for an extreme makeover. Gawd it was ugly. I may be secure enough to scan it in and put it on the picture site. I am still having an internal debate over it.
This morning is considerably warmer, only 31 degrees when I arose and turned on
the computer. I probably should inform you all about my Internet connection. Unfortunately it is quite pricey; $80 a month for unlimited access. But on the other hand that is only the price of 2 rounds of golf if you get my drift. It consists of an aircard about the size of a credit card with a little antenna. It fits into the PCMCIA slot on my laptop. We have it through Verizon Wireless. I will be able to connect just about anywhere. It is great to be able to get rid of the tangle of wires we put up with before. I will be testing it as we go down the road to see what the connection is doing.
Today I plan to catch up on laundry so Butch can start the process of winterizing our home so I had best get to it.
Till next time….
