Happy Campers

We have soooo many things that we're happy about tonight. So many, in fact, I decided to start a list. So, in no particular order, here they are. They'll tell you a lot about our day.
  1. We are out of our dumpy snow-filled campground.
  2. We are 225 miles south of Kansas City.
  3. We're 225 miles closer to Texas.
  4. There's no snow in our spacious campground here in Wellington, Kansas.
  5. The current temperature is 33 degrees.
  6. It's 22 right now where we came from.
  7. 11 degrees is a BIG difference.
  8. Nothing is falling from the sky.
  9. We have both of our slides out.
  10. Our water pump works.
  11. So does our generator.
  12. Our stop by the dealer was quick and easy.
  13. We have a full tank of propane!
  14. We filled up at the dealer, so we didn't have to stop on the road.
  15. Our furnaces are firing and we're not even thinking about them.
  16. For the first time in a long time I'm not wearing a sweater and wool socks.
  17. The cold bug I came down with overnight isn't getting worse.
  18. Our drive down a very familiar highway today was uneventful.
  19. We arrived here before dark.
  20. We have satellite TV.
  21. We have great power - rock steady at 120V!
  22. Our kitties are so comfortable and happy that one of them is camped out on Paul's lap.
  23. Tomorrow we have nothing to do and nowhere to go.
  24. Christmas is over.
  25. We're back to our normal, fulltiming life.
Ah yes! That last one? It's a biggie.

It's so great to be back.

Your list reads great. It is nice that you got your "issues" fixed or repaired. So much stress!!! Now you truly can relax a little bit.

Hallelujah to being back on the road again! Despite a few setbacks and disappointments with the new rig, it feels SO good to be traveling towards an anticipated destination rather than just escaping bad weather and taking care of business. Let the fun begin!

Great post!! I am so glad you were able to get those issues taken care of with the motorhome. Perhaps Bullwinkle was just very very cold.
Counting your blessings is always a good thing to do and yours are spot on. I am so glad for you all.

Continue the journey and travel safely.

I think you should arrange with your family in Kansas to have Christmas in May (Memorial Day) or Christmas in July (Independence Day). Kansas is a very nice place but the wintry weather just isn't what you were looking for!
