Trip to Food Bank

When you go from a walk-in pantry to a small, RV pantry, there is food to spare. Lots of it. We made a trip to the local food bank yesterday to give away can goods and other items that we had no place to store in the RV. It is also a consequence of buying large quantities of items from Costco that we would take years to use up. That was our good deed for the day.

We are making headway on the boxes but still need to do a realization check on whether some things are worth carrying in our small space. It seems that we will be taking at least one more trip to our storage unit to place more stuff that we really don't need to travel with and have no room to store. Items such as movies, cd's and excess clothes are on the list of things to go to storage. They are also heavy items which we need to eliminate to keep us within our total weight limits. One thing we discovered when we moved out of the trailer and into the house was that we were way over our weight limits.

The hydraulic leak should be fixed this AM as the RV shop is sending out a technician this morning. We are hoping that it can be fixed on site and quickly. One thing we don't need is another extended repair period that will mess up our future schedule. Actually, we have until early May to get things squared away for travel...
