Hurry Up and Wait

Still in Albuquerque -- our initial round of appointments, fixing things, etc., has now resulted in us waiting around for pieces and parts to arrive. Wayne is in the process of trying to install running boards on the Ford Explorer. Never as easy a job as the directions would like you to believe! He has one done and will install the other one tomorrow. Today is a day of kicking back and watching football (and maybe some World Series baseball). Hope everyone is doing well and getting geared up for Halloween!

Update

It's been awhile since I posted, so here we go (lots of pictures). We are now in Albuquerque for a couple of weeks (we've been here one week so far). It's catch up with all the "chores" we have to do while in the city: doctors appointments, flu shots, voting, trading Jeep in for a 2009 Ford Explorer (love it), replacing old, dead washer with a new, more efficient one, renew driver's licenses, get mail and various other items. It's been a busy start to our visit, but now we are just waiting for all the various things that have been ordered to arrive before we decide what to do next!

We left Jellystone a few days early because the weather was turning cold and we were dangerously low on propane for heating -- and we got out before the serious snow started!

We hope to be back next summer along with all the other Workampers from this past summer!

Wayne had a great checkup with the doctor last week and everyone was happy with the weight loss and blood sugar levels, and all those other levels they track. He will be doing a sleep study this next week to see why he has so much trouble sleeping at night. We had a nice visit with my parents before they left for Branson, Missouri. My Mom turned 80 yesterday and is still going strong!

I've been enjoying the sunsets (and one great sunrise) since being back in New Mexico; that is one thing I miss about NM when we're gone. So for now we're just hanging out and waiting. Hope everyone is doing well and we will let you know where we are headed next (once we decide, of course)!
