We Made It To Our Winter Home! Happy Halloween!

It's late, so this will be short and sweet - just to let everyone know we made it safe and sound after a totally uneventful drive today.  We got parked about 3pm.   We did have discussions, though, about finding a different route back and forth -  but we've a few months to figure it out :-) 

We have most everything set up tonight and are starting to feel at home already.  We've met our neighbors on our right side (as we face the street) and they seem like super nice people.  A couple we met last year that are directly across the street  pulled in a few hours after we did.  Our friends at the end of the street (two sites to the left) are here but we haven't had a chance to say hello yet.   We noticed a few new rigs on our street that weren't here in March.  Our understanding is that 95% of all lots are now sold in the Co-op with Dec 31 set as the anticipated date for complete ownership.  

We will now start meeting contractors and getting estimates.  We have to get our improvement plans approved by the oversight committee and then get things scheduled.  It's now going to be a matter of becoming a member of the community and getting settled for the winter.

We were lucky today with the weather - it was overcast all day and only about 80 degrees.  We were dreading having to set up in the hot sun, but it was very nice today not having it beating down on us as we worked.  

Not sure what day routines will start - hopefully soon.  Tomorrow is Wednesday already.  We need a day for grocery shopping and getting a few things we need for the RV.   I will be flying to the Bay Area on Friday afternoon for a Celebration of Life/Memorial Service for my sister on Saturday but will be returning home on Sunday.  Maybe Monday will have to be the real start of routines.  

I will work on getting photos downloaded tomorrow.
