Jan & I had our final "sale" this past Friday & Saturday and it was a total success. We have rid ourselves of over 95% of our worldly possessions. Other than a couple pieces of furniture (which will go on Craigslist), the remaining small stuff will all be donated. Of course, we still have the motorcycle, the old truck, and the HOUSE! We both learned that it is WAY easier to buy stuff then to sell it!

No worries; we moved back to the base campground yesterday and have requested an extended stay for 3 months. We'll go back to the house periodically to cut/trim the weeds--no grass here, just dirt, rocks, and weeds! No bites yet on any of the big 3 remaining items, so we'll just keep our fingers crossed.

OK. Here's the plan.

1. Keep the motorcycle. You'll be sorry later if you sell it. I know I am.

2. Start up the truck.

3. Drive it straight into the side of the house.

4. Remove the plates.

5. Call insurance agent.

You're welcome.

P.S. I know Tom thought of this too. But he's too cautious.
