Contingencies, contingencies

Yeah! We have a contract on our house. It's contingent upon the buyers' sale of their home. They do have a contract in place, and it's going through the process. If all goes well, we will close on our home on April 22nd. There are a lot of hoops through which to jump between now and then. Radon tests, septic inspections, and house inspections to name a few. There's even a Covid-19 clause in real estate contracts now. It essentially says that both parties understand that delays may happen because of closures, travel restrictions, etc.

So, say everything goes as planned and we settle on the 22nd, then what? We're hoping that we'll be able to travel as scheduled to our new home state of South Dakota. Right now, a lot of state and national government owned campgrounds are closed. Some private campgrounds are closed because the local government has shut travel down for visitors. Some have announced shut downs through the end of April. It's a bit unnerving to think that we will be in our coach and not have a place to park it.

I keep reminding myself that we're three weeks away. Hopefully, the social distancing and the travel restrictions will have eased by then. If not, well, I guess we'll just deal with it then. We can't change the situation. I will just keep reminding myself to trust in the God who loves us.

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.   Philippians 4:6-7
