Brent and Paulette's Excellent RV Adventure's: Mixed feelings about the move.

I'm sitting here thinking this morning about our move, what I'll miss about this way of life, no real attachments, just our friends and family when we return to our home town, along with friends from most every place we have stayed.

See we just pull up to a place and often now we have family or friends like family wherever we go. That kind of life is great, here we are at our new to us site ready to move into a mobile home here in Port Alberni, our home town. I'm happy about this, yet sad to change the way we have been living.

A friend we have said "keep the trailer!" I believe he's probably right, but after our trip north this fall 🍁, will see if we feel the same way. Been a really good run we've had, yet sometime I knew we'd change it up, and this is the time.

Polly went to Qualicum for a couple days with her sister, they always have so much fun together, I'm happy for them. Me I stayed and finished the rebuild on the shed floor at our new place. Was a tough slog in the heat, but I can see the end of it today.

Had to be done, not perfect, but I got a 3x6 beam support under that wall now, so a few alterations, and be done today.

Will be able to move most my little shop of tool's and my wood to this area before our trailer comes over at the end of the month. So that's the way forward, yet I sit this morning here in our site out beaver Creek thinking I'll miss the moving about. I might change my mind about this once I get into our new place, it has a really nice covered deck area, where we'll see the sun coming up, and be close to the coffee ☕ pot too.

Thinking can really screw ya up hey! LoL

Oh well, I'm going for my second cup of coffee ☕, will go soon to the shed and finish, then be hauling stuff there the next few days, thinking will change in time I'm sure, just a little feeling hmm 🤔, loss I guess. Still have two trailers, see how it goes I guess.

See, things changed, I went outside to enjoy my last coffee ☕, and met Drew's mom and her partner, Marilyn and Christian, the family Drew Laurie and their 3kids Ash, Jada, and Ila were all in the garden talking and sharing the beauty of the garden. What a great surprise for me, from inside I saw Drew with Ila on his shoulders, and Laurie walking, it I didn't expect the whole family.

So of course talking and listening, asking questions, get to know each other, that was my gift this morning ❤️

After Drew and I loaded a mattress they were about to give away onto my pickup, going to bring to my daughter Penny's later, I watered the plants for Polly, then went in to have something to eat before I left for the other trailer. No bagels so toast this morning, I looked in the fridge, thought might as well use up that strawberry jam stuff Polly had made up. Toast ready, spread the jam, smells a little funny, maybe just starting to turn, oh well be ok I'm sure. Outside taking my first bite, ahh isn't strawberry, it's the spaghetti sauce that was also left, same but different LoL,
