Drove out last Friday - Kerry, Tracey, and myself in 2 cars. We arrived at the Circle the Wagons Campground around 7:00 pm. Arvy had been delivered as planned and parked in the space I had reserved - #18.  Not leveled or hooked up to water, sewer, or electric though and I was a little disppointed about that, as I expected it all to be done.  It's not that hard to do those things, and we were able to get it all done, but just didn't want to after a long day's drive.  Also had to haul all my stuff in, and fix the beds for sleeping.  Strong smells in the camper, due to the bug and mouse treatments I had left. The worst was mothballs! I won't do that again!  Sat., after spending some time putting things away, we headed toward Colorado Springs with a stop at Walmart, checked into out motel, then up to Cripple Creek.  Stayed one night in Colorado Springs, and one night in a motel at Cripple Creek.  Monday, we drove on up to the south side of Denver to the new Ikea store.  Back in La Veta before dark. Tues. worked on trying to get the Satellite TV to work, plus a few other little jobs that I needed help with, and Wed. morning K&T headed for Kansas.  So - It's just me & Katy now, and we aren't expecting any more company until around the 4th of July when Tracey & Everette come to visit.  I worked on getting organized today. Tomorrow (hopefully) I will start washing the outside and/or cleaning inside.

Back to Colorado!

I'm getting excited - in about 3 weeks, I'll be back in my "other residence" in La Veta, Colorado!  Wow! The winter went by so fast! I'm making plans & lists, have my spot reserved, and have talked to Birco and made arrangements to have Arvy pulled down to La Veta, parked, set up and dewinterized. Oh yeah - by the way - It's official! My camper's name is ARVY.
