Movin' on . . . .

The RV's parked next to the front porch. The horse trailer's full of outdoor furniture and clothes hanging from a longe line. Annie's home from Seattle, still snoozing. There's a wash going in the laundry room. The dryer we won't be using anymore quit drying clothes yesterday. It's sure fun having to pay to fix stuff you're not gonna use.

Bill's eating his breakfast and reading the morning blats. Laura, Sefo and the triplets will be up later this morning, just in time to see all kinds of planes at the airport for the first Fly-in we've had in years----I think Mt. St. Helens Day in 1980 was the last one when we had a host of folks sitting in our barnyard getting a free aerial show until "the cloud" came through and stopped it all.

We probably won't have a lot of time to watch the planes cuz today we're movin' on. The Stewarts are probably out there in Selle loading up their goats and donkey. Soon, they'll be moving on down the road to southeastern South Dakota. And, soon thereafter the next tenants of 214 South Center Valley Road will put the key in the door and begin a new life.

We'll take what we can this morning in the horse trailer, motor home, pickup and cars. By day's end, we're hoping to have most of the boxes out of this house and stacked in that house, and we'll have taken a tour or two of the new property with the Yamaha Rhino. If all goes well, tomorrow we'll have some extra muscle helping us with the heavy pieces of furniture. By Monday, the new dining room set and Maytag washer will arrive.

We'll take time out from most of the work on Tuesday to celebrate----the Fourth of July and our new life in the country. So, I'd better shut up and get moving. Lots to do to get ready for lots more to do.

Happy Saturday. Stay cool!
