After our Alaska trip I ran a short haul back to Vegas. We’re moving Cindy’s son’s family from Vegas to Minnesota. We received the full retail price of a move with no middle-man. The owner of the company we’re leased to said that since it’s family he doesn’t want anything from us. This worked out really well. A good trip and Cindy spends time with granddaughters. I don’t do household much, for one thing, I’m not very good at packing the truck "high and tight". Loading in Vegas was worse than a sauna in the trailer and it’s not the neatest, but everything should be okay. We’re hoping for more help once we’re in Saint Cloud.

We’ve got the granddaughters in the truck and they are very well behaved. The truck is perfect for the kids to play in the back, watch movies and take naps.  We get a motel every night and it’s a leisurely drive.

Lately, I have to realize that we’re really working. We’re probably not making the most money we can right now, but we’re having a great time. Two weeks in Alaska, a week helping family and the next trip may be to Nova Scotia on the extreme east coast of Canada.

The truck is acting up and it’s more of an inconvenience and a pain in the butt, but nothing major right now and I want to put it in the shop for a few days while we’re in Minnesota. I’m really tempted to start shopping for a new one.
