While he was gone I took the dogs for a bit of a walk - 3 dogs who haven't been out for 6 months, scent of deer and squirrel strong in the air - and me. All in all we fared quite well, even though I didn't put them on their prong collars. They did have heavy martingale choke collars though.
This is our first trip out with the Tardis (trying that name on for size), and it is going well. It pulled well but was noticeably heavier than our old one - I guess our mileage is going to go down. Getting going is always a bit nerve wracking, especially with a trip through the city on our route, but all went well.
Setup was slower as we had to make some adjustments to our fence panels to accommodate the slide, and things inside weren't were they used to be, but these bugs will get ironed out. Once we got all set up, we unfurled the new automatic (hurrah!) awnings with just a touch of a button, and then cracked open an icy cold beer. Our typical setup routine. The only thing missing were the chips (regular, nacho or otherwise, we aren't fussy), instead we had celery sticks with a homemade, fat-free hummus. It was good... but oh I missed those chips!
Did I mention how much I love the automatic awnings? They are awesome!
Carm finally came back with his beloved remote - we had so much fun trying to get the satellite tuned - NOT.

Oh dear, Craig will probably be th same once we get a satellite system. I am holding out for waiting until we are full timers before investing in one however. We have not had TV at home for three years. I don't miss it. All Craig every watched is sports.
