Good grief… scrambling to get ready!

 

 
 
You've got that right!  From a colourful fall, complete with white stuff falling from the sky... it is definitely time to prepare a course (that'd be a 'route' but I prefer the nautical terms) for southern climes.  To that end we are scurrying about (perhaps some scrambling too) to deal with prepping house & gardens for winter, as well as winterizing dear old SSpirit and, oh yes, readying Oscar who has not had to deal with the likes of us before.  

Ah... I must confess something.  You remember Casper the new trailer?  Well, the name Casper was actually part of his old life and, after we got to know him a bit... Oscar seemed to suit.  Funny thing; our friend who sold us Casper (now Oscar) has named her new trailer Felix... so Oscar and Felix will be exploring southern CA about the same time... kind of fun.

So, for now, we are busily pulling our tudu lists together and doing our best to shorten the entries.  This year our course will be simpler, with longer stays in each place and fewer places (less mileage consumed).  Know we are well and hope all of you are enjoying each day.  We slip December 5th and will be back by March 31.  We will, of course, be boring you with tales of our travels via this blog. Thanks for coming along for the ride. TTFN  ('tata for now' for you newbies).  CJ
