The move is done. We spent Monday bringing clothes over and since we were determined not to bring EVERYTHING it took some time to decide what to bring and what to leave. I’ve made up my mind that when i see something I like I’m buying TWO! One for the park model and one for the 5th wheel.
On Tuesday we were supposed to move to Quail Run but we got mixed up in our days as far as how long we were paid up for. We ended up paying for another night because we realized at nine that we were supposed to be out at eleven. Well, THAT wasn’t gonna happen. The lady in the office was nice enough to extend our Passport America benefit for another night too. So we didn’t even go to Quail Run at all, instead we used the day to do a thorough cleaning since it would be our last day with a water supply.
On Wednesday we moved to Quail Run and put the 5th wheel in a site that was pretty close to our park model. Then the back and forth, back and forth trips started. I had no idea we had so much stuff! And of course you want to take all of it. You never know what you might need right? At the same time you know that just isn’t an option and I just had to keep telling myself that its going to be stored right down the street so if I find that I absolutely have to have something I can get it.
Wednesday night we spent our first night ever in our park model. We were so exhausted we could have slept on metal racks with burlap blankets and been comfortable. Now that’s tired!
Thursday we finished up transferring the stuff we “forgot” and then spent the afternoon dealing with the Directv guy getting our dish service put in place. Quail Run has limited cable TV but we are now officially spoiled with our 250 channels. Of course we can only watch one at a time but its comforting to know that the other channels are there. How did we ever get by with just three channels? Remember when TV used to go “off” at night?
We are officially in our winter perch now. I even took pictures that reflect we’re “home”.
This evening friends Rick and Wendy Fury stopped over to visit. We met them here two years ago and have kept in touch ever since with emails and keeping up with each others blogs. It was great to see them again and to be able to spend another season with them.
Perfect ending to a good day? Phillies won!

Some friend I am. I was going to help you move clothes Monday and didn't get to do that because I went to the doctor.
You can now relax and get some much needed rest.
When are you going to get a NEW robe? Also, since you are now buying two of everything, shouldn't your references to Walmart now be the $200 store? Just wondering..... Barb
