The trip from Winnemucca, yesterday, went without a hitch, although we were up earlier than usual due to the time change and anticipation of getting home. We managed to get into Sparks around noon and amazingly the folks at the Marina RV park put us in the same spot as when we were there to get ready to go! We did, indeed, come full circle - a 4,000 mile circle!
We packed up the truck with fridge and pantry stuff from the RV and went home. Maggie was so excited to be here. She ran around the house and yard like a bat out of hell. She was a crazy dog! She is loving just being able to go outside with out getting on the leash - and we are quite happy about it, too.
Rog and I went for lunch and then back to the RV and spent a couple hours unloading more stuff and doing a good cleaning of the inside. We only made the two trips, though, so we didn't really have all that much to move. We closed it up and came home for a nice evening of rest. We didn't even try putting anything away except the groceries. We were much too tired.
This morning we went back to the RV around 9am to finish the cleanup and dumping tanks, etc. We had the RV parked in the storage place by 11am. There is a Raley's grocery nearby so we stopped there on the way home so we would have food for lunch!
So, you remember right at the beginning we said that the kitchen sink faucet in the RV wasn't working well so we borrowed the sprayer from home. As it turned out Rog fixed the RV sink. Then, today when putting the sprayer back on to the home faucet he broke it completely. It had been hovering on it's last legs and we've been talking about replacing the faucet one day. Well, today was that day! We found a new faucet at Costco when we went there to finish getting groceries. So, poor Roger got to spend the afternoon replacing the faucet in the kitchen. Hardest part was removing the old one. Then the lines from the faucet to the water connection were too short so I got to go to the Ace to get another water line (we could use one of the old, but the other didn't fit). I found stuff under the sink I forgot I had and I also wonder if I'm alone in cramming so much stuff under there.
Maybe tomorrow we will get to laundry, putting Roger's workshop back together, and get back to our walking with Maggie and gym morning routine. Got lots to do to catch up!
We enjoyed the month away despite our not so fun adventures with the RV. It was good after not being out for so long. We now have until mid November before we go out again - and then it will be for a very long time.
