House is sold...moving out underway!

We're very busy getting ready to move out. We're going to hold a big "everything must go" sale on Aug. 28th-29th. We will move into our fifth wheel right after the sale. Hopefully, there won't be much left in the house to get rid of at that point.

Lots of work to be done and feeling a bit overwhelmed right now, but we're looking forward to everything being completed by the closing on Sept. 14th...then we can "relax" and just focus on Tina's wedding on Sept. 19th.

After the wedding, we can make our plans to head south for the winter - sometime in October!

Received offer on our house

It looks like we've sold our house...pending all inspections and contingencies! The buyer does not have a house to sell, so that helps. If all goes well, our closing date is September 14th. So considering the fact that our daughter's wedding is September 19th, we will be VERY BUSY from now till then! To top it off, we're heading off to Michigan for a Montana owner's rally at Mackinaw City July 29th-August 2nd. So we'll take a week to "relax" before hitting it hard when we return. We're planning to possibly have one more moving sale, see what the kids want yet, and then take the rest of our "stuff" to auction.

We'll keep you posted on the progress. Wish us luck!!

Update on Sale of Our House

Thought I'd better post an update on the sale of our house...which is no update! The economy has really put a wrench in our plans, but we're hoping this will just be a slight delay in getting the house sold. We intially received an offer shortly after listing, but it was contingent upon them selling their house. Unfortunately, that did not happen and they took their house off the market, and the offer has now expired.

So, all we can do is wait and continue our life as usual until further notice. We're hopeful that we'll get some renewed interest in the spring and we hope the economy will start turning the other way...upwards!!

We'll keep you posted!

Getting Ready for Our New Adventure

We're getting ready to undertake our new life of fulltime rving! We've put our house up for sale in early October, and have already received a good offer...but the buyer also has a house to sell, so we'll have to wait awhile. In the meantime, we'll keep showing the house and see what happens!

I've been surfing the net with as much info as I can digest, and checking the Montana Owners forum and Workampers forums. We're excited about taking that next leap! We made the purchase of a Montana 3400RL in July and absolutely love the layout. It is very roomy, and we're confident that we will be very comfortable in our new "home" as fulltimers. Even the cat feels at home in it. Unfortunately, we just had it winterized to spend a few months without us in it...until we're ready to head south!! We've also purchased a new Dodge Big Horn diesel truck to pull the rig! So we're ready to go...

Stay tuned for updates.
