A weekend out

We had a another chance to get the motor home out for the weekend.  So we had Christina come in and take care of the store and to keep an eye on Betsy (Shepard) and the house.  I would like to take her with us but she is shedding badly and she really doesn't like other dogs.  She is our guard dog and she keeps and eye on the house and the store.  She doesn't like to see the motor home leave because she knows that we will be gone for a while. 
We went to Riverpark RV just outside of Grants Pass.  We were at this park last year in the spring, so it was very quiet.  This time it was full and we got the last space that would fit us, it was still pretty quiet.  We were right on the river but on one side we were right next to the other RV.  Our awning was just about touching the Motor home next to us.  We didn't extend it all the way out as not to get to close.  They left early the next day so we had plenty of room until the next one came in.  They were smaller and we were fine and not as close. 
The geese were everywhere on the river edge but we were up hill and they could climb up there.  At least I didn't see any poo poo any where in the park. 
Everytime we go out in the Motor home it makes me more excited to be full timers.  We have been dreaming of this for many years and hoping that this will be the year we sell the store and retire.
Until next time,

A weekend to get the Rig out.

We will get a chance to go out for the weekend to get those fluids in the RV moving around.  Our part timer is going to work the weekend for us and keep an eye on the house.  We won't be going far, but at least we are getting out.  Should be a nice site that I reserved.  We will be right on the Rogue River. 
More later,

We listed the store with a realtor

Well, after two years of trying to sell the store on our own, we decided to get a realtor and list it with Keller Williams reality.  He seams to thing he will "get'er done" for us.  There have been many more hits on his site than I ever got on mine own of listing it on the Web.  Hope hope hope we can sell this year.  2013 has to be a lucky year for us. 
We will be going out again for a weekend trip soon.  We try to get the motor home out once in a while to keep all the fluids and everything else in the rig going.  We use everything at least once.  I can't wait to live in it full time.  I keep thinking of things i want to do to make it look like a home.  Like changing out the booth dinette to a table and chairs.  Taking out the couch and putting in a couple of comfy chairs.  I think that I will redo the valances also.  Time will tell...
Bye for now,
Lu
