Tillie Two Too

Last week John & I signed up to help with more Habitat projects - one in Thibodaux, LA in Feb. and we're on the wait list for another in Mason, TX in March. Even though we haven't seen much yet, winter will surely be in upstate NY by then. A project down south seemed like a good idea!

Then I got to thinking...(always trouble as far as John is concerned). Tillie, the VW, is not much in the heat category and there's a LOT of cold country to travel in between NY and LA in February. And then there was the bathroom situation. It's one thing to get up in the middle of the night to trudge across the parking lot to the public restrooms. But doesn't Louisiana have alligators? And what about those rattlesnakes just coming out of hibernation in Texas?

I looked up rentals. John looked on EBay. We ended up with a "winning" bid on a 1990 Roadtrek located in Maine (where else?). This is NOT the time of year to sell an RV in Maine so perhaps that's why we got a good deal on it. We'll see. If the paperwork comes tomorrow we're off to pick it up so we'll be on the road again. To celebrate, I'm going to take a vacation from this blog for a few days. It's almost Christmas after all and we wish each of you a very MERRY one. Talk with you in the new year!
