After making a quick decision Wednesday night to move up our
departure date from the next Thursday to this Saturday, we got into high gear
with packing and organizing. We had
planned to close up the park model trailer after our friends left on Monday but
they offered to do the last minute stuff for us. I had an oil change booked for next Tuesday
for the motor home but the garage was able to fit it in yesterday.
My cousin’s husband passed away back in November and there is
a celebration of his life on March 30th in Victoria that we plan to
attend. Hence, the reason to hasten our
departure and speed our trip. We have
around 2800-2900 kms to cover and today we managed 373. We
need to up those numbers for the next six days to make that work for us. We did spend six hours overall today but one
hour was lunch and naps then two rest stops and later a gas stop.
This has been by far the nicest weather winter we’ve had in
our six years of coming south. As one of
my neighbour’s said the other day, this winter has been better than any summer he can remember in the Pacific Northwest. It
has been so dry in this neck of the woods that there are far fewer flowers this
spring.
Yesterday, I managed to drop my computer a couple feet onto
the hard motor home floor and I think it is ruined. The screen comes up white when first turned
on then goes totally black. I will be
without it until getting back to BC so will try to use Aileen’s for what I can.
All my photography is on my laptop so
that’s out of commission now. I have
most files backed up on an external hard drive except for the most recent. As a result, my next few posts won’t have any
photos. Of course, all my self loading
websites are lost for now as well. Hopefully, I will find someone to rescue all
my files to transfer to a new computer.
