Jam packed


Yeah I think that about says it all.

Now say goodbye to everything we own...

One thing I'll miss

Pink skies filled with lightening and constantly rumbling thunder. I wonder if there are ever evenings like this in Oregon?
Only 2 weeks left! I can't wait to get to my new home.

The little tent test

Good news, the small tent kept the water out on its first night ever even without a footprint or tarp under it. Last night was supposed to be a storm test but the storm never showed up.
We have already used the big tent in the rain so no need to test it. Though now we wonder if we even need to take the monster tent. To give you some idea, about 6 to 8 small tents fit in the large tent. The large tent has skylight for Pete's sake.
Leaving behind the big tent saves us a lot of room in Martha's tiny car, so what do you think internet, big tent or little tent?

Making Progress

We're now able to mark a few things off our moving checklist.
-We've given our intent to vacate.
-The electric and internet are scheduled to be shut off at the end of the month.
-The storage/shipping container is scheduled to be dropped off in 3 weeks.
-We've started packing.
-We have on campsite reserved and all of the friends and family we are planning on staying with across the country know we are coming and are looking forward to it.

Now its just a matter of getting rid of all our extra crap and making as much money as we can in the few weeks we have left.
