IT IS HERE! IT IS HERE! IT IS HERE!!!

We picked up the RV today.  Took it to storage and will bring it home on Sunday.  Tomorrow is supposed to rain so we will undecorate the house from Christmas.  We are SOOO excited.  Below is a pic of all the paper that came with the RV.  The first real drive was during rush hour from the dealer to I-95 then to I-64 then to the storage area.  A little scary for a first drive.  Oh, by the way it was dark!  RV dealer said to plan on 3 - 4 hours at the dealership.  We were there 6!!  That was not even close to enough time.  We have a lot of learning to do.

Jeep Plates Arrive

Insurance

Spent most of the afternoon getting insurance quotes for the RV and the RV and Jeep combined.  What a pain and we are still not done.  History on our current policy initially showed a claim from 2011 that we never had.  Several phone calls and emails to get that straight.  Now we need to wait until Thursday for final approval.  Keep me calm, Lord!

The Jeep finally arrives

December 17, 2012
We went and picked up the Jeep today. All the towing equipment has been installed so that is ready to go.  We spent about an hour just learning the navigation and sound system.  So 3 weeks to the day after we bought it we got it.

At the dealer

Got a call this morning that the RV is at the dealers!!!  So we thought it was coming in mid February of '13, we will pick it up on December 28th!  So excited we can hardly stand it.

Di turns 62

Di's birthday was December 2. Got this great card from the Beatty's (actually Janice did it). So cute- I just love it!  A great thing about being 62 is that the National Park Service offers a lifetime membership for only $10!  Next time I am at a national park, I will get mine. 

We are finally figuring out this blog stuff

After many false starts, we finally have the hang of it.  As you can see, we went back and updated some key events in the transition phase.  Hopefully we can keep it current from now on.
