It's the day before Thanksgiving and we're still working on finishing our move into the motorhome. We've pretty much moved everything, either into the motorhome, into storage for our daughter to pick up later, or off to Goodwill or church. We still have to finish up cleaning out the townhouse, but for tomorrow at least we're taking a day off and enjoying the holiday with friends. Our challenge for the next few days is coping with the weather, with highs only in the 20s and lows in the teens. While we can stay comfortable in the motorhome, the task of keeping the outside fixtures from freezing and watching the propane usage can be time consuming. In addition, I have to drive 40 miles to pick up new toilet valve assembly as the dealer left the motorhome outside overnight during the last service visit and it froze. I wonder how many times you have to tell the service manager that a motorhome is not winterized before it sinks in? Oh well, only 16 days until we depart for warmer climes! We're both tired and are looking forward to the rest and warmth. We hope you all enjoy a safe holiday with family and friends!
