We have located and packed everything that is going to long term storage (the back of "Papa Bear"). Now we are ready to set up the cargo in the Van. We have all the tubs identified. We are identifying items for "resupply" to go to "Mama Bear."
We are camping in our house now. It's a bit tricky. I have been removing items from daily life to get us closer to camping (and also to pack up, obviously) and it feels like a game of musical chairs - while the music is playing I remove one chair (the microwave! the graduated bowls with lids! All the other utensils . . . ). Tried to reheat leftovers for lunch today - ended up baking them on foil in the oven. It was about 90 at the time. Such is life - a moving experience.
So Thursday is "Van Day" where we practice filling all the tubs that get to go camping. Everything else is Resupply or NYCC, theoretically. Friday we will be moving to storage everything that is not going camping (some exceptions may apply) and Saturday we move some things to Rocky's, which will be our residence of record. We will be there for a couple days every couple weeks, according to our plan, until the end of October.
We seem to be having success following our plan and Roxanne and her lovely boyfriend and his relatives are pitching in to do the heavy lifting. I am grateful. Life is good.
