#1 Getting Ready to Go - Jan, 2010

Note: See all of our trips at: tinyurl.com/anneandjohnblog

Hello and welcome to our travel blog. Our blog is going to document our travails, er travels, and what we are seeing and doing along the way. We'll try not to bore you, but no promises!
Getting ready to travel in an RV is probably more work than most people realize. Not just mechanical things like tire pressure, windshield washer fluid, oil checks, etc., but also things like what to pack for all the weather we will see, how much food to take, making sure we have all the pet paraphernalia (forgot the leashes and collars last time!!), and uncovering the RV.
That last item is more headache than you might imagine. Right now the RV is parked in the backyard, and covered with a tarp with about a million (not quite) ropes to tie it down. So we have to untie the tarp, somehow (using a ladder) get it off of the RV without damaging things on the roof, and fold it for storage. Then driving the RV over the snow to get it up front for packing. If we have a BIG snow, it will be a BIG problem! We’ll see.....

    John, I think you are carrying technology too far (just kidding)!

    This will be interesting to read as long as you don't include mundane things such as "I got up and brushed my teeth." Kidding again.......

    Good blog, John! Keep it up.

    Hi John,
    it`s looks really nice in Texas. I wish I had a small cottage in a nice southern awa where I could stay all winter or several months at a time.I could also work on my sidelines pretty well. Chick.

    Great Blog! We love the pics and the heroing tales of you and the very stuck camper. I especially love the picture of you both by the Rockies. The shorts caught my attention! Very sassy and trendy Uncle John! I'm just jealous! Sitting here in 0 degree temps with -20 windchill. Crazy!! You are the smart and fortunate ones. Anyway, we will miss you, but we will continiue to follow. Be safe and have fun!
