RV Moving Day


Today our temporary home arrived. My plan, to get it set up and begin tomorrow to get water and electricity to it. There were lots of questions that needed answers. Could the RV make the turn through the gate? Yes, no problem. Could it make the second turn so quickly after the first one? Yes, no problem. It was solved. Now just down the old ranch road, between the trees to the spot we had picked for our temporary residence. At ground level there was at least a foot of clearance on all sides. Yea!

Just a word of wisdom from experience. When you are moving a fifth wheel between trees, don’t forget how tall the RV is. It wouldn’t go under the lowest limbs of the tree. Out came the chain saw and a ladder. Long story short; The RV is still 50 feet short of its final resting place. It is lonesome out in the woods alone while I am again at the Econo Lodge in Cortez.

Tomorrow I have appointments with the Water Company, the Electrician, and an excavator anyway. Maybe things will go some smoother.

One of my new neighbors came by, he made me smile.
