Nearly ready to roll on outta here

Well, only a few days to go to our next southern adventure, the trip down to Desert Hot Springs, this time a bit different, as we will take the car and leave the trailer in a storage lot here on the island.

We found winter house sitters, from Manitoba this time, and they are returning to their jobs here in Nanaimo, for the winter, which seems incredible. Their son and his wife and small grand daughter live here, so they are wanting quality time with them. We all seem to have meshed our plans so well.

Our car will be loaded to the top, the reality of packing without the trailer to absorb all our stuff is just dawning on us, not to mention the fact that we can't empty our fridge into the trailer fridge. New trip, new details to think about!!

Meanwhile "back at the ranch" we're making space for the house sitters, packing both for the winter down south and our 2 springtime cruises at the same time, and thinking about trying to leave the house in ship shape condition for the new folks. Erg. Hair pulling time.

Not to mention getting Christmas cards and goodies organized for sisters and nieces, nephews etc. More hair pulling. I will be bald before we leave!!

That's about it for this new blog, talk to you soon. Stay posted.
