Winding Down and Gearing Up

Gerry and I are in the final weeks of working our regular jobs and getting ready to head out on the first of many months on the road.  We're selling our house and giving away many of our possessions.  Its funny how these things seem to accumulate over a span of 34 years together. 

Lots of things to plan for a life on the road.  Picked up our mailbox key at the post office this morning.  Dropped by GRACE to leave a car load of items we no longer need - hopefully someone who needs these will get them.  More work this weekend to gather another load to drop off next week. 

We're also planning our first trip to the northwest.  Where should we go first?  Do we go here - or should we do this?  We know that Oregon and Washington are on the list, but where do we fit in the cruise to Alaska?  Got to be back in Reno in time for the Hot August Nights.  Do we visit my brother in California before or after that date.  Need to be headed back to Scottsdale to see our Collin and Yana before we need to be at the Balloon Festival the first week in October.  I think I need to write these "must dos" on a calendar to get a better overall picture of our first year.

This is the story of Gerry and Ellen, a Motorcycle Trike, and an Airstream travel trailer.  We have many places to go and lots of things to see.
