The Fast Lane

Life is starting to move a little bit faster, I think we are gaining momentum. Johann and I are having a hard time getting the roof rack fitted, but as always, a boer mark a plan!!!

The cottage is not yet rented but I still believe I will rent it before the end of the month, Beau Gosse is coming for a visit tomorrow so I can hand over the keys and give final instructions for the running of my beautiful house, I hope he fixes her up the way she deserves, sounds like he intends to.

I have everything packed, a few items I am not sure what to do with so they will be stored, packed or donated, as usual, everything is ready to go into the camper but it looks like a ton of stuff, I think I will be dumping some of it, I know I can live for a long time out of a backpack, but it might take us awhile to get back into that kind of survival mode, although, to my credit, a lot of the stuff belongs to the dogs, large pillows for the floor, bedding to cushion the heat of the engine which they will be sitting on, 8 towels, 6 bowls, 36kg of Pro Pac food, shampoo and grooming aids, leads, wow..............maybe I should leve the dogs behind, I think I have less stuff than them....

Still have the kitchen to pack up for Linneth to come and fetch over the weekend along with my washing machine and microwave, the washing machine cannot be taken out without cutting off the fitted plug, I have no idea how my mother got it in in the first place, talk about a Boer mark a Plan???

So too much to do still, not yet sorted with the solar panel either, may have to go without one and pick one up on my travels, will see today what I can sort out, excitement might not set in for awhile yet.

Cami-Leigh called today from the sunny Carribbean, she is being transferred to the Australian, Alaska run, great choice, long cruises so less work, and more over night stops so they can have some down time in port, lucky girl.

Haven't heard much from Gissie, must be busy working or busy playing, hopes it's the latter......

Winter is on it's way, that's a blessing, the camper is pretty hot and the dogs will have a hard time if I travel during the heat, so winter will allow us to travel anytime that suits us. Anyway, best time of the year for me, winter, love the fresh mornings and sitting around the fire at night.
