9/14/2010 We Can Roll…..

We had a decision to make today, Not one we liked making but one that had to be made all the same. The direction in which we’ll go. We have friends all over the state of Michigan that we had hoped to see while we were here. We were really looking forward to seeing these friends of ours but time constraints are not going to allow us the luxury of catching up with them. I just know we are going to regret not backtracking so that we could visit but sometimes priorities just don’t allow us the time to do all things we would like to do versus the things we need to do. So friends, we leave your state and the only thing we can say is…..Next time, we’ll visit next time.

I took this picture of our new home before we pulled out today. Look at the size of that slide! Though we haven’t actually measured it yet we believe the left slide is 20 feet long. It makes up part of the kitchen, the hallway and the bedroom.

We pulled out of Michigan around 10:30 and drove about an hour and a half south-southwest to Indiana. Another point of entry for us.

While we were in this rest stop I took a picture of the truck and rig.

Even though we are in Indiana we are staying in the Michigan City Campground. Go figure.

There’s nothing special about it, its not beautiful like the last one and its only a few dollars cheaper. Makes me sorry we moved to tell ya the truth.

We love setting up the new trailer…its so easy! I’ll explain more about that in another post though.

So we got started right away in putting yet more stuff away and I’m at a point that I can take pictures of the kitchen now! Yay me!

First things first. Bob just loves pushing a button and awning goes out/comes in.

Our entryway. A place to put your jacket or hat.

It must be the lighting because the wood doesn’t really look this red.

Hooray! A double door fridge and double door freezer! Lots more room! Nice deep drawers underneath too.

I just love the slide out pantry drawers!

Bob is going to add a third shelf for more me as soon as I get a step stool so that I can reach it.

See this cabinet? Guess what’s behind that door.

A handy place for our freezer.

All in all, its a slow process, but everyday it feels more and more like……

Late afternoon and early evening brought some TV. There’s a TV channel in this area called ME-TV and it plays the old shows from years gone by. The Rifleman, Batman, oh I can’t believe that was actually prime time TV at one point! Of course that was back in 1966! We’ve watched I Love Lucy, Dick Van Dyke, Wild, Wild West and several others.

Another day down, another day closer to being done. More pictures to come.
