Election Day and Moving Day



Today is Election Day – November 8th.  It’s also the day that we relocated to our place at Cedar Blue RV Park in Sulphur, OK.  We arrived at the voting precinct mid-morning and the entire process only took about 30 minutes.  Where we voted in Newcastle was at a church out in the country so I wasn’t expecting a huge wait.  All the election volunteers were extremely nice and helpful.  My prayer today is that everybody gets out to vote and that regardless of the outcome, everybody can come together and make America great again. 

After voting we turned in our post box keys, went by our friend’s home to get our last bit of mail (she is going to handle our mail for us) and then to Walmart to load up with groceries.  About 1:30 pm we said goodbye to some neighbors and then to Donna, the RV Park owner, and her son, Dale.  Tears were shed and Bailey did her therapy dog job and licked the daylights out of Donna.  We know this wasn’t a permanent good-bye as we do plan to spend time at the park periodically and make day trips to play cards and see friends, but we lived in the Moore area many years and in the RV park for five years so it was a bit bittersweet as we pulled out.

We arrived safely at Cedar Blue mid-afternoon and got the RV setup.  We have plenty to do over the next few days in getting our stuff organized and determining what will go to Texas with us for the winter.  We head to Rockport, Texas on November 30th for four months.  We haven’t been to Cedar Blue for about three weeks and it appears they’ve had quite a bit of rain.  The grass needs mowing! 

We are excited about this next stage in our lives and look forward to sharing our adventures with all our friends and family.
