The Move Is Complete !

Well it took 2 long days but we've finally moved out of the townhouse and into the coach. Wednesday was devoted to getting the final items into the coach; moving the food from one fridge to another, the final few clothing items and computer, etc. We also had lots' of visitors and conducted a bunch of "tours" of our new home. Many of the guys from the fire department stopped off to say goodbye and get a look at our new toy ! It was a nice touch and I appreciated their efforts and time spent visiting.

We moved the rig over to it's temporary home: a spot in the campground where we have stored the rig(s) during the years we've been in PA.

This morning was an early wake-up and we went back to the town home and finished packing the last of our stuff for storage. The movers showed up on time about 10.30 and it took till 2.30 to fill a 26' truck to the brim ! It then took another 3.5 hours to unload it and stuff it in a 10 x 15 x 12 storage unit. It was on the 3rd floor of a climate controlled building but thankfully the elevator was huge and they had lot's of carts.

We'll go back over the weekend and clean up the town home and move Kristin's stuff out on Saturday. We've got some other housekeeping chores in town and closing is scheduled for Monday. We'll leave for Long Island and the grand kids on Tuesday.

We're tired; we're excited; we're having fun; It's the adventure. We'll keep you posted.
