After Kilgore, we headed the 190 miles through east Texas down to College Station where Bruce's parents live. We contracted with the local Holiday RV Park to park the Flying Scotsman for three nights to sort things out before putting it into the garage.
I said I would talk about the transition of getting the stuff out of the RV and into our new house ... well! We arrived to about 86 degrees and 90 percent humidity and parked the bus in front of the house to onload. We just about died from heat stroke in the process of moving the ton of junk into the garage ... had no idea how much was in that machine that needed to come out and be sorted! Whew. Once the bulk of the stuff was in the garage, we parked the RV at the park for the next couple of days. Thursday Bruce washed the exterior and Jo-Anne cleaned the inside from stem to stern. By that night we were tired puppies. Friday we finished up the cleaning effort while gradually moving into our new place.
And Saturday we moved the Flying Scotsman to its new home after so many months on the road. Here's the garage in Bryan about a mile from where we live where we'll keep it out of the sun for a while.
And the interior of the facility which will give us time and space to do some minor maintenance and cleaning and updating that had been ignored while on the road.
Today it was a picture perfect Texas Chamber of Commerce day in the high 70s with very low humidity ... super!
Now we've been to see y'all for the last year or so, so it is time for you to come and visit us during the nice Texas winter ... stay tuned for the next adventure.
