Re: Ozzie Road Trip - The prequel
I have stopped for a minute to take a breath! We leave tomorrow early and today has been crazy trying to do so many things with not enough time. SO has been on night shift so sleeping during the day which has meant we got behind in our schedule. We are both exhausted. Chopping wood, feeding out hay, cleaning poultry yards, cleaning the house, the campervan, packing, shopping....it seems to be never ending!
Tomorrow we have to drop one of our dogs out at a boarding kennels at 7am, which is unfortunately an 80km round trip in the wrong direction! We know where we want to end up tomorrow night but whether we get there or not is another matter.
For number 2 son who is coming back home temporarily to house and pet sit it is nearly as bad. He says he has to pack not only his clothes but his gaming stuff and maybe his computer. Thing is he doesn't have a normal computer it is a behemoth monster set up for online gaming with all sorts of stuff, the function of which is a mystery to me. He also is bringing his pit bike. One of those horrid little motor bikes that horrid little (big) brats ride around making a lot of awful noise. He has just bought one of those Go-Pro cameras to mount on his helmet to film his imminent crashes.
I had every intention to put up pics of Vannie packed up and rearing to go but I am nearly out of daylight. Tomorrow I will try to get a pic or two up of our FIRST DAY on the road.
Wish us luck - we might need it.

Re: Ozzie Road Trip - The prequel
It does sound very hectic!
Hope the trip will make up for it and you and SO get some good time
to enjoy and relax! Best of luck for your adventure.

God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.
