Finally a chance to write

I'm a little late like 2 weeks, getting to this post but there has been so much to do and by the time I take a deep breath each night I am so exhausted I can only fall into bed.  So I'm catching up in a posting frenzy, please forgive the flood.

Day 1 Maiden Voyage:  Over 100 miles for the shake down cruise and it was AWESOME!  The coach handled like a dream.

Though there is no such thing as a quick detour in an RV.  Five miles off the freeway for a store stop doesn't take 10 minutes like in a car. RV Trekkin is most definitely Turtle speed!   LESSON LEARNED!

There is no' just put in a couple bucks of gas", $200 later ... you know it in your head but to actually see it on the pump ... STICKER SHOCK!

Make sure all drawers are completely closed prior to taking off as they will fly open in transit.  LESSON LEARNED!

Our plan was to come back to the apartment and start moving a few things at a time into the coach, after all we have a whole month before we have to be out of the apartment.  NOT! We were so excited when we started moving things that we just kept going and before we knew it we were 80% moved in.

The first night we stayed on the street right outside the apartment and sleeping was amazingly comfortable and easy.  Woke refreshed and ready for our first full day in our new home.
