We are home!

We have been home about 10 days and have been busy most of that time.
First thing on our list was to find a nice pickup camper to take to Alaska next month. We found a new one in Walcott, IA which was our backup plan. Then we saw one on Craig's list south of Des Moines. We drove down last Saturday to look at it. As promised I called the guy on our way there to let him know when to expect us. BUT even though he said he would call if he sold it first, he didn't. He sold it Friday night. So, we called and met Sara and the boys at Bass Pro for a snack and visit.
Sunday we found another on Craigs list in Mechanicsville, IA and that afternoon we drove over there to see it. We bought it but need to get air shocks put on our truck before loading it, so plan to go after it Thursday if the air shocks come in time.
Today we sold our old pickup camper, also on Craigs list, so that is out of the way.
Bill has been busy getting the yard and garden work done.
I have spent some time getting the house cleaned and laundry caught up.
We are hoping for a nice day tomorrow so we can do some more yard work and enjoy the weather.

The end of our first Snowbird winter.

We had an unexpected event on Sunday afternoon. On the way to and from church we noticed a whitetail doe laying by the fence across the road from our park. We went to town again in the afternoon and she was still there. Then on our way back home a deputy was there. She had a broken leg and he shot her. Bill went over and asked what would happen to her and was told they had no one to pick her up and if we wanted her it would be OK. So we took her back to camp and Bill butchered her in the woods. We cut up the meat and put it in a cooler of ice and brought it to Georgia.
Monday we took the traiter to Camp Bullis for storage. Bill bought a cover to proctec it from the sun so we put that on. It took us a total of 4 hours for this process but it worked well.
We went back to the park and hooked the new utility trailer to the pickup. We stayed there that night and headed out Tuesday morning.
We got to an Air Force base in Shreveport, LA that night and they had a nice camp ground. Wednesday night we got to Pell City, Alabama and found a campground on a lake.
We arrived in Fayetteville at Rachel and Chris' about 1 PM on Thursday.
We went to a Weight Watcher meeting with Rach about 5. Chris got home before we did and put the trailer in their garage and our truck in the driveway.
The pictures I am including are of the morning coffee group and Bill and I by the river next to the RV Park!
