Light the Fire

The house has been dusted and scrubbed immaculately.  The list has been checked, and checked, and checked once more, but one hundred miles from home we will realize we only have one shoe or something.  Tomorrow the engine will start and may we have a tailwind heading to warmth and old friends.

More than likely the Earth Module will land in Wheatland, Wyoming.   A half day drive will then end in Denver to see my little Sylvie.  From Denver to Chochiti Lake in New Mexico.  From there not sure. Packing has been a week long process. Trying to shave every once of weight out of the rig has been a careful exercise in restraint.  Hopefully the new tires at 80 PSI should get us a tinch better mileage.  The free trial Sirrus radio should be a nice addition for the long drive. We will miss the long hot showers, good internet, simple minded television, and lots of space.  Cold hopefully will be a thing of the past. Waking to sunshine, a T shirt, and mountain views will not be hard.
