Here are
the changes that have happened since the original posting in early November of
2011.
It is now
mid January of 2012 and it is a bright, sunny day with temps in the mid
40s. After that first heavy and wet
three inches of snow, we’ve only had a couple dustings of snow that soon melted
away. We’ve actually had more rain than
snow this winter because of the extremely mild temps, some of which have been
record setting. We have also had several
nights in the single digits and wind-chills well below zero.

New Years
Eve and Day greeted us with sustained winds of nearly forty mph and recorded
gusts of fifty-eight mph. The wind
caused some minor damage to our skirting.
About a week later we had another couple days of high winds (though not
quite as high as before). All in all, it
has been a wonderful winter … so far.
Now … about
the trailer situation. In the previous
post I stated that we weren’t sure how our original plans were going to be
modified. Well, here is what has happened. We bought an additional fifth wheel.
We now own
(but do not have possession of) an Excel 34.5 RLJM. The NEW plan is to leave the Excel on our
seasonal site at Cutty’s Campground where it will become our Summer Home. Currently the Excel is in storage at the
dealers (Plaza RV in Bondurant
The HH will
go to Texas
The RR is
currently in storage and being used for storage of our extra stuff. The plan is to “part out” the RR’s equipment
(microwave, new refrigerator, newer water pump, newly rebuilt furnace, new 20ft
awning etc) Once we’ve sold the innards
from the trailer, we’ll either keep it as a storage bin, or sell it as scrap.
So, at this
point, we are back on track with plan A.
Or maybe it is plan A.02.
