6:30 PM Tuesday, September 14, 2004

We have moved -- finished moving in our personal belongings; unhooked the utilities and the dial-up Internet connection; rolled up all the awnings; slid in the slideout and stowed all the potential projectiles. That process took about 45 minutes then we moseyed over to our friend's yard (AKA Les's RV Park ... ha!) about ten minutes away. We are now parked beside Gloria and Les's house about a mile from our house where we reversed the above; hooked up to Les's fiber optic, high speed Internet; slid out the slide; hooked up the utilities and we're as snug as a bug in a rug. Just in time I might add as I listen to the steady patter of pouring down rain on the roof that hopefully, will lull us to sleep, rather than keep us awake. Tonight will be our first night in our comfy queen size bed in our cozy "master bedroom" ... all 8' X 8' feet of it, or a compact 64 square feet! This should be an interesting adjustment since our master bedroom in the house was 18' X 25' or about 450 square feet. ** Phil rejoined (he had been a member years ago) the Loyal Order of Moose and he was initiated this past Saturday night. I was invited to come along and we enjoyed a wonderful meal after the swearing in ceremony, compliments of the ladies in charge of the kitchen. ** On Monday night we joined our friends, Millie, Andy, Sandy and Ray at Gloria and Les's house for his birthday celebration dinner (that Les cooked ;-). Andy provided magnificent two inch boneless pork chops that Les stuffed and baked! They were knock your socks off exceptional! Sandy, the master baker of the group baked two wonderful cherry pies and I put together an apple crisp for dessert. After dinner we all got our "puppy fixes" playing with Zena and Wookie who are about nine weeks old now. They started puppy school tonight in Olympia because Gloria and Les are determined to ultimately have two well-behaved dogs rather than bratty babies that think they are people ... but they are sooooo sweet and sooooo cute! It's going to be very difficult not to spoil them. ** Tomorrow we will return to the salt mine and get back to work preparing for the garage sale!
