And we're just about Packed!!

It's quite amazing how much stuff you can cram into an RV. Several hours later, multiple trips up the driveway, two joy rides for curious friends, a tank of gas (when the heck did gas jump to $2.24???) and we've just about got the rig loaded. We think. I hope. We'll know soon enough.

I think after watching Grey and Molly play in and around the RV today, we may not really need to go anywhere and they'd still have a ball. Their excitement is almost as high as Tracey's right now. (and she's bouncing all over and sick at the same time) Every nook and cranny has been investigated and every travelling position has been scoped out. I'm hopeful they haven't found 12 days worth of fun in only the 8 hours we've had the RV.

I think we'll need to name this RV "thing" we have as our new home. I'm sure we'll come up with something over the course of the trip...also quite certain that many a choice word will be used to describe it, but hopefully we can coin something that captures it's fine points, like the massive CRUISE AMERICA tattoo, the 1-800 # plastered at every corner, the wonderful mountain portrait with lighthouse, and all the dust from our travels. Right now the kids just call it the "rolling turd".

More to come, the adventure is just beginning.
