Extending One More Day

It was early in the morning when we decided to extend our stay here at Wilderness Lakes one more day. I went to the Ranger station and extended to Saturday, and also canceled our storage spot here at the Preserve. We get a refund of $43 for leaving the storage before a full month is up which helps a little for gas.

Our goal yesterday was to sort through all the boxes and stuff we brought to the fifth wheel to determine what we might need for the next 4-5 months. The rest was going back to our local storage unit in Vista. It went smoothly and we decided to take it back to the storage unit late yesterday afternoon. We packed up the truck and headed out to Vista one more time. We drove past Arcadia Place on the way there and back, to really say our final farewells.

Most of what will not be used for the next several months is out of the Fifth wheel, including all of our Christmas decorations. We feel that we will be back to clear out this storage space following our time in Jackson Hole, and have it transported to Surprise, AZ to join our other stored goods. The fifth wheel is probably lighter now than it has been since we started out in 2009. Maybe it will help with gas mileage. We hope so.

Today will be spent just organizing everything that we brought from the apartment that will travel with us. It shouldn't take too much time which will allow us to relax a bit before heading out tomorrow AM. We even talked about going to the pool for awhile today. It is much warmer here than in Vista - 95 vs low 70's. It's just nice to know we don't have to rush back to our marathon jobs at Arcadia Place.

It's another beautiful day and we are planning to take full advantage of it - we will be ready to go tomorrow...
