A new home for Sadie

Our new driveway is rather massive!


Sadie all tucked into her new home.

Well, after 4 months and 6 days at the Ash Creek RV Park in Independence, OR, we moved Sadie into her new home. We have been living aboard, while we build a new home in Dallas, OR. Yesterday, we were able to put Sadie in the new RV garage! The house is not finished, but the RV garage is, and we got in just in time to avoid the first big storm of the season.

So, we are currently living in our accustomed luxury aboard Sadie, but under cover! It was so quiet last night. We had no idea whether it was raining or windy. The only downside to this whole situation is that we can't use the automatic satellite dish on the roof of the coach. I set out the portable dish, but was unable to find satellite 119W, so we have three channels: PBS, ION, and an all Spanish channel! The good news is that our Cricket internet still works great.

We expect to be moving into the house within a week or so. Then Sadie can have a good, thorough cleaning, such as we are unable to give her while we are living aboard. Once we are living in a stationary home again, I am sure, we will soon want to take a trip in Sadie. Now that she will be at home and under cover, I can do all the maintenance quickly and easily, so she is ready to go at the drop of a hat. And with an insulated garage, I won't even need to worry about winterizing!
