Back the countdown to 9. My house closing appointment got pushed back. So annoying!

Man, that sucks.........

 

[GeoKat]

I got all my closing papers turned in yesterday and today a cargurus dropped me a new listing that I couldn't pass up.

The nest 8 days we'll be moving my oldest to her new apartment and then hitting the road for Ohio and our new home. Excited doesn't even begin to explain how I feel.

I feel a new chapter just waiting to be written in my life and I'm the author.

Lakeview I'm going to find hookups at Indian lake to get the rv set up with solar and get to know our new home.

Glad to see you bought enough truck for that nice 5th wheel camper. Too bad you paid extra for the painted bed cover shell and have to remove it before you can tow the camper. It really makes that truck look good!

I was born in Dayton. Grew up in Springboro. I have lots of cousins up there from my mom's side of the family. I've lived in North Georgia for almost 40 years now though and love it.

It came with it but it's preferable. I'll be driving my belongings to ohio from Oregon in order to move into the 5th wheel. There's a lot of weather between here and there. Not to mention not so honest people when I stop each night to sleep.

Yeah, but what are you going to do with it when you get to Ohio? You have to remove it before you can pull your 5th wheel camper. Maybe the RV dealer would buy it from you for some price?

If I don't find a quick solution for it I can put it in the garage until I do. The upside to having a toy hauler, I have a little extra room for stuff.

We'll I finally left Oregon behind yesterday. Took me two days because of the snow and mountains. We went east then south to Nevada. The roads are a lot nicer here.

I got to witness the side effect of driving too fast on ice when a pickup that zoomed past me and another person in front of me then flipped their rig in the ditch. Nice reminder to take it slow. Luckily no one was hurt.

I'm happy to discover I'm averaging 15 mpg even using 4hi.

 

[GeoKat]

The sum of our second day on the road, heading towards our new home.

I've never understood how someone could flip a vehicle UPSIDE DOWN. Good Grief!! There was a crossover SUV on my road not too long ago UPSIDE DOWN in the ditch with some young girl standing there crying to the police. Speed limit is 35 MPH. It's a VERY curvy road so it's not like you can go fast. SMH.

Finally made it to ohio last night. Picking up the rig tomorrow morning ?
