We're off tomorrow!

The truck is almost loaded.  Packing is done--almost.  A few boxes left to load and two errands to do before we get to take off.  The cats are going crazy!!  Pacing and following us all over the house.  Got the truck set up for the cats so they will feel a bit at home--blankets to lie on and the ever present "pan" for them to use as we travel.  Not like we can stop and take them for walks like dogs.  
Weather forecast for Newport is rain rain rain for the next week.  Hopefully just showers but time will tell.  Hope it clears up so we can get the truck unloaded when we get there.  At least we have two days to unload before the truck has to be returned.  With all that we are taking, it will take that long.  It's over 310 yards from land to the boat--each way!!  We are taking a cart along to help with the haulout to the boat.  Surprised that the marina doesn't have one for the boater to use.
We expect to be there by Tuesday night.
We'll get back to you after we arrive.
