Texas?

While traveling home from Alaska we talked about heading south after the Christmas holidays so soon after we returned home I started preparing the Shasta travel trailer to put it up for sale.  First cleaning out and then removing a few items like the four Trojan batteries, the inverter, wireless network, generator to mention a few things.  OK, let's not forget the fact that I need to find a new travel trailer.

Preparing the trailer took a lot longer than I anticipated but I finally finished and moved it over to a friend's house that is on a main road but after almost two weeks and no calls I tried another friend that has a business on a main highway this was a little bit better and received a couple calls and even thought I had it sold to one of them.

One day I was over at my mother's house and she told that she was planning on going down to my sister's house for Christmas but she was planning on leaving around the first of December so she could attend her graduation from Texas University.   So the offer came around that we could travel together down to Texas.  This also put the pressure on to be ready in time.

We found the our new (used) travel trailer the first part of November still holding out and hoping that we can sell our trailer but that never came to be so we bit the bullet and bought our new trailer finally picking it up right after Thanksgiving.

Skipping ahead to the first of December ready... set... and wait forgot to renew some medications so finally on the 5th of December we hit the road.
