About 5pm Michael had the engine in the jeep purring—he is so elated!! And so am I—for him! I finished up LoraLee’s quilt about 4pm and started working on the canvas leaders for the longarm table rollers. Had to cut that stiff old canvas the appropriate length, dig out my seldom used serger to neaten the edges and tomorrow or maybe later this evening I will sew on the zippers. That will conclude any more sewing I have to accomplish before we leave! On to packing and loading.
It was a beautiful but chilly day here—sunny skies—may that continue until we get the motorhome down our rather steep driveway! One week from tomorrow we hope to be rolling!
I had about decided not to take any Christmas decorations. I figured on buying maybe a small live tree along with some strings of lights—calling it good. My dear husband this morning decided we need to take along the small, lighted tree we have and a few ornaments. OK—you talked me into it. He seems to have forgotten that old “you can’t take everything, we weigh too much…….!”

Yup, we got a little fake tree, and I squish up the branches to a long skinney shape and stuff it in the back of a cabinet. Then I have some very favorite tiny ornaments to put on it. We even decorated it when taking the rig up to my dad's cottage, just to have it shining on the dash during new years!
