WELCOME

Welcome to our blog, we hope to share with you the trials and tribulations of our conversion from a 'stick' home to a '5th wheel home' to Mobile living.

One step forward for the McN's

The house is sold and the closing date is Sept. 10th so it doesn't give us much time to liquidate the balance of our furniture. We have moved most personal essentials to the trailer but there is still lots to do.
Jane has invited all our neighbours, friends and family to drop by and purchase anything that would fulfill a want or a need. The results have been very successful and more to visit next week.
My tools and things that I brought to Balsam Station to sell has slowed down. I can't complain as I moved quite a bit over the Summer. Still have 2 computers, tools and some antiques up for grabs.
I will be bringing more 'stuff' to Balsam Station and the trailer during this week. Our freezer is still 1/2 full so we better eat up and get fat, LOL!
It now looks like a Southern trip will become a reality. It is amazing on how everything is following into place little by little.
We have the option of storing some stuff in the garage at Balsam Station and then perhaps bring in an Auctioneer or something.

Sale of Home & Update

We are into early August and still liquidating excess holdings. Last week we finally spent one full day and two nights at the trailer park. Animal orientation went real well, both dogs seem to be adjusting to the surroundings real easy for which we are pleased.
Two weeks ago we received and acceptable 'Conditional' offer on our home. Today we found out that the buyer received an acceptable offer with minor standard conditions. Seems like the next step is about to happen.
We have been moving personal effects to the trailer and into our new storage shed. The storage shed was built and delivered by local Mennonites.
Tomorrow we are off to the trailer for a few more days. I am working my Chip Truck Fri. to Sun., I have an experience lady running it Mon. true Thurs. which gives me my first Summer break in 7 years. We both work on Sunday which is our busiest day of the week.
