Getting Ready

Preparations are well under way  to depart from Sandcreek township for our first extended road trip south.  The three of us, Jamie, Tipper & Betsy are ready to leave the snow and clouds for the warmth of the southern sun. 
The truck is almost completely road worthy with the connection for the Sirius radio the final preparation to be completed.  The trailer is not quite packed and provisioned  however this week work is being done in earnest. The curtains are almost all washed and ironed and one bed is made, Betsy's.  Many lists are being compiled and plans to laminate them for future trips are in place. 
Tipper went to the vet today to have a sore place on his toe looked at. He has new medicine to take and we have instructions to soak his paw for 5 minutes in bleach and water.  Can you even imagine how easy that will be???  We want everyone tip top.  Jamie goes tomorrow to get his feet looked at too!  We wouldn't want anyone feeling poorly as we take off.  

I'll take some pictures tomorrow to show all the progress as the preparations reach a fevered pitch.
