Getting Ready to Roll

 The furnace has been repaired and is working. I was talking to Susan V H about the RV furnace and after a while, she said Butch is a smart man and he will figure it out and indeed he did. I helped...with holding stuff, and writing stuff down etc. My training as a medical assistant comes into play now and then. It was a happy moment when he turned it on and it kept on running.

The route is established, reservations have been made where appropriate and we will be leaving Wednesday morning and should arrive in Trophy Gardens on Saturday, mid-afternoon. Being self-contained in the Motorhome is as safe as we can make it. We mask and glove when filling with fuel and that is the only outside contact we will have. The park is asking new arrivals to self-isolate for 10 days and that too is on our agenda. 

So Monday will be moving into MoHo day. It is a day of commitment as it is nigh on to impossible to live in two places at once. It is a big day and a busy one. Think of all the things you use and need every day and would need to move from one house to another and that might give you an idea. And be sure to add in all the things you would need for 5 months. There are some things we have duplicated. We have both said on occasion that it was much easier when we lived in the moho full time.

Tuesday will be "What did we forget day" and having water meter removed and Internet stuff returned to Jefferson Telecom for the winter. It is usually not that busy a day. We have purposely chosen a time of warm weather but this time of year it can turn on a dime. This past week the MoHo has experienced the coldest temps ever. Prior to this the coldest it ever saw was 18 degrees and that was only for a few hours and we were living in it at the time. We have learned one thing; our tiny little home in Jefferson Iowa is quite comfy in cold weather.

On another subject, we can now enter the pool hall without walking through muddy ground. I haven't actually done it yet but plan to very soon to take pictures inside and out, one last time before walking away from the project for the winter.
