Even though we knew we would be making a test run this summer, we ended up feeling a bit rushed in preparation. Harold was checking things out mechanically. Getting the
autogen start to work and the tire pressure monitoring system installed were
two important items on his checklist. Autogen start is a function where the
generator will automatically start when batteries reach a predetermined low
level.
Meanwhile, I was emptying the house of anything I thought
I might need on a full-time basis. Winter clothes, extra set of sheets, cleaning supplies, small kitchen appliances, all had to be loaded. It was a bit
aggravating to know that I’d be unpacking most of it when we returned. However,
we wanted to get a realistic coach weight, and we wanted to figure
out just where things would be stowed. Already we're making a list of things we forgot or things we might not need.
As I selected shoes, I was reminded of the lady
who told me that her husband limited her to 10 pairs of shoes. She sat in the
middle of the bedroom floor, surrounded by her shoes, and cried. Well, I didn’t
cry, but I think I have 11 pairs of shoes.
