Only 1 more day until moving day

Image5 1 more day and we will be moving to a new place. I love moving to new places and seeing new territory. Although we have been to Mississippi on numerous occasions this area will be new to us. This trip should be around 695 miles.

We are going to be spending most of the winter near Mobile, Alabama. Were looking forward to exploring this area and were praying that it’s much warmer then it was last year in Texas. We’ve driven through Mobile several times, but we’ve never really had the time to stop and explore.

Most of the day was spent packing things up. Cleaning and getting everything ready to roll in the morning. We went to lunch with friends, Jackson, Anna, George, Arnett, Miriam and Sally for the last time this year. After lunch hubby went to start our generator and it wouldn’t start, he tried putting the battery charger on it but it wouldn’t work either. So off to Wal-mart we went to purchase a new one. After letting the new charger charge the battery the generator started right up and worked great .. am i ever glad as it’s wonderful to have a generator when your dry camping or boon docking.

The tanks were all emptied, the water was disconnected and all the hoses were put away. It’s suppose to get down to 30 degrees tonight so we wanted everything put away that could freeze. My flowers were brought inside. I made some home made Chili for dinner tonight.

Around 4.30 pm we headed to visit Jackson and Anna and have some home made choc pie. It was delicious and after our pie we played trash train. Gabe and Kelsey called while we were visiting and so it was time to say good bye and head back home to see our kids before we head out. We ate dinner with the kids and visited. Of course they brought Myakka their doggie and as always she was happy to see papa and grammy.

The kids left around 9.30 pm and so i cleaned up and all that is left to do tomorrow is take the satellite dish down, put the computer up, hook up and pull in the slides. We don’t plan to leave to early, but you never know.

The dogs are excited, every time we go to the door they run to it and want outside, they run to the truck .. like okay, i’m ready. It’s amazing how they know when it’s time to move our home.
