it begins

So. We're packed - and ready to go. And when I say packed - I mean PACKED. The movers are in the house and we have every available square inch of the camper Full.

We are traveling in a ZII Zeppelin by Keystone - it is 29 feet long with a slide out that holds the dinette and couch, a queen bed up front, and a full and single bunk set in the back. The baby will sleep in a pack'n play by the dinnett - she's taking her first nap there now. I have monitor duty - the movers packed hers, so I'm here until I'm sure she is sound asleep, and then not venturing far ----ahhhhhhh a pleasant break!!! I took out the bar stools (which will put back for more routine trips) in favor of a shoe rack. A wise move.

It is amazing how much stuff we have in here.

We depart Yorktown on June 10, we are set to arrive Rainier, Oregon (about an hour east of Astoria) on July 7 (I think) - it might be the 8th...... Matt's change of command is July 12 - my job is to find a place to live before the boys start school on September 4. We are taking our time. We found a great U.S. map that we have on the wall and stickers to put on at every stop. The boys don't think that it looks far to Oregon at all - that will change!!!!

Well, that's it I guess until we leave!

Have a great week!
