Louisiana - No Pics Yet

We are in Covington, Louisiana, as of yesterday.  We are staying at Fairview Riverside State Park, which is very nice and where we stayed last year.  The rain held off until this afternoon and we're supposed to have "very cold" temperatures tonight and tomorrow.  The weather report said with wind chill, it will feel like it's in the teens -- didn't we leave New Mexico for warmer climates?  Alas, it didn't happen.

On a higher note, next Tuesday we fly to Los Angeles to board our cruise ship to Hawaii!  I can hardly wait!  It seems like the past three weeks have been very busy and it will be nice to just sit back and relax!

I will post some pictures soon.  We won't be posting while on the cruise, but I'll be taking lots of pictures which I will share on the blog.  

Until then -- bon voyage!

Out With the Old, In With the New

We are beyond thrilled -- our new motorhome has arrived and we have started the dreaded "moving in" part of the process.  We arrived at the delivery site about 1:30 and our new Alfa See Ya! arrived about 2:15 -- I was amazed!  


That doesn't necessarily mean smooth sailing from here -- they had to come shampoo the carpets this afternoon; the refrigerator recall that was fixed didn't "take" and is being fixed again; and the 50-amp electrical cord has disappeared!  


Wayne and I started moving all the outside stuff as soon as it arrived, since we didn't want to interfere with the carpet cleaner guy -- but as it turns our I was able to move a lot of canned goods and other small items to the interior.  It is now sitting and drying and hopefully we will have dry carpets by tomorrow morning before the rain starts!


We will keep you apprised of our progress.  We hope to leave here by Friday in order to make it to Covington, Louisiana, and Karen and Danny's for Super Bowl Sunday!  Keep your fingers crossed for us!
