Finally Settled

We were up and hustling around early this morning to be at our Montana dealership when they opened the gate at 7:45. First come, first served so we wanted to be at the head of the line. We were actually closer to the service bays from our campsite than it was to drive out of the campground and down the street to the dealership. Oh well, we were first and they took us right in. In fact, Gene got out of the truck to announce his arrival in the office and one of the techs came out and drove away with his truck, his wife, and his home. Gene had a strange look on his face when he opened the door and saw his rig being pulled away toward the back of the building.


While our home was in for maintenance, we had a list of errands to run. We voted and picked up a new dish drainer at Target before going downtown to Gene’s office to gather up two months worth of mail, visit with the ladies, and get a couple boxes from storage. We have had several things in a storage room in the building where Gene’s office is located. Most of that stuff are things that we liked real well when we used them and just couldn’t bring ourselves to dispose of when we moved into the Montana. Well, it has been 3 years now and we haven’t needed or wanted any of it in all that time. Off to the Goodwill it goes. Over the next two months we hope to whittle that down to just a couple or three boxes.
The aftermath of home cooking--dirty dishes.

We picked up our home about noon and are now settled into the site where we will be for the next couple months. We liked being with all the travelers here at Two Rivers so have decided to stay here even though it is a little more expensive. They put us on a site at the back of the campground away from the traffic noise at the front. I put out what few Halloween decorations I have and now we are ready to enjoy our stay in Nashville.
The best aid in digestion--a recliner.

This evening we went for dinner at my parent’s home. Even though we talk on the phone a couple times a week it is just not the same as being together and it was a great treat to have mom’s cooking. We are looking forward to a few more home cooked meals between now and the end of the year.
