Finished!

5:42 am - Thursday - October 10th - LPG&RVR - 46° F, humidity 49%, wind 2 mph out of the south by southeast.....partly cloudy today with a forecast high of 79° F.  On this date in 2010 TLE and I were in Santa Fe, NM with friends doing the tourist thing.....what a cool place......

......this was the first trip pulling our 2007 American Trailer with the T-Bird inside.

Before we could finish organizing the trailer Wednesday TLE and I both had hair appointments in Alturas at Kaleidescope Hair Salon at 9 am so we were out the door and on our way by 8:30 am.  We were done with our hair styling by 9:30 am, and then headed to Dollar General to pick up a few things, then over to Holiday Market for our final grocery acquisitions, then back to ACE Hardware where I picked up some window washing fluid for the VW, and a new DeWalt tool bag.  We were back home before 11 am.

Wednesday was also day four of the great 'site takedown'.....at the beginning of the day the inside of the trailer looked like this ↴...still a lot of stuff to organize....lol.....

.....by the end of the day it looked like this ↴......

....there was a lot of work done Wednesday, but it went quickly, and now the trailer is ready for VW Beetle insertion on Monday.  As you can see, there are a few things left, such as the black trash bag on the right side of the picture....that bag contains clothing donations we will drop off at the Goodwill donation center in Carson City.....to the left you see a trash can, which will be emptied, and collapsed.....

....behind the trash can is our Starlink storage box, which will be moved into the Newell, and our 3 Bluetti portable solar panels, which will also be moved into the Newell for our trip south.  The black bag is my former computer which will be donated to an E recycling center.  

As I wrote yesterday, we moved all of my tools into the right rear storage bay.....

....as I wrote above, I had to buy one more DeWalt tool bag at ACE Hardware in which to put more tools, but they all fit perfectly!  They used to take up a lot of room by the trailer door, and were hard to access, as well as step over, but now they are all in one place, out of the way, and very easy to access should I need them for any reason....

.....to make room for all the stuff that was moved to the front of the trailer we set up one of the folding tables on which to place the 'light' stuff....small boxes, our two suitcases, ice chest, etc.  I cut up a large cardboard box to form a wall around that stuff and then secured everything with a ratcheting cargo strap.  The heavy stuff is on the floor under the table.

After finishing the trailer I hauled a cart load of junk to the trash can, and some stuff down to the Night Registration office to store over the winter.  By 4 pm were were done, and I was relaxing in my recliner.  I went with TLE over to the Clubhouse around 4:45 pm so TLE could pick up the cash drawer, and while she did that I putted for about 15 minutes....a nice ending to a hectic four days.

Thanks for stopping by!
