Top Ten List

Well, here, in no specific order, is the list of the 10 things I forgot to bring on our first RV adventure:

10.  Folding Table
 9.   Folding Chairs
 8.   Plastic Cups
 7.   Bath Mat
 6.   Sugar
 5.   Crock Pot
 4.   Table Cloth
 3.   Plastic forks
 2.   Cash
 1.   Litter Scoop

What impressed me, in my planning and packing efforts, was the fact that all, but one item (litter scoop), could have waited or been purchased at a local Walmart.  Two points for my stocking ability.

On Monday, "G" and I need to head up to the dealership, in Bath, NY for them to repair/replace two problems. The "inverter," which powers the fridge while we are traveling, is not working and the shower drain was leaking.  "G" seems to have solved the shower drain issue, but the inverter may need a bigger fix.  This will be the first time utilizing our one-year warranty, so we shall see how good the service is at Wilkins' RV.  One of the reasons we chose to purchase through Wilkins' was their great reputation for servicie and repairs. Since we are planning and preparing to head up to Vermont in 3 weeks, we need to have that baby ship-shape and ready to roll.

My next entry will be sometime in July, as we get ready to hit the road again. Right now, I'm getting ready to hit the skies to visit three little girls in Colorado.  Thinking about the rigors of flying: going through security, boarding the plane, sitting for hours on a plane full of germs and strangers, and eating salty snacks makes me long for the comforts of traveling aboard Gracie.  Maybe the next trip out west will be a road trip...

Deep thought for the day:  Try to think of your life as an exciting adventure with the next spectacular event about to happen the following day....even if it's only in your mind.  Your Life: A cliffhanger - to be continued.
