Saturday, March 14 - We arrived in Canton, Ohio, on Friday, before noon. We had an uneventful drive across the state from our last stop in Cincinnati. Interesting that we drove diagonally across Ohio in less than 4 hours. It takes four long driving days to cross Texas....YIKES!
More of Paul’s carvings while we were in Houston.
We spent some time getting the 5th wheel backed into it's spot. It's not exactly how Paul wants it, but it will do for awhile. He has work he wants to accomplish on the RV this summer so he'll be moving it in the near future anyway.
We spent the afternoon unloading some necessities, like clothes, from the trailer. Our daughter, Kelly, came over after work to help.
Paul also winterized the 5th wheel, just to be safe. If we were living in it, he didn't feel it would have been necessary. Since we are not heating it and it isn't that big of a job, he blew-out the water lines and pumped some anti-freeze in to keep the lines from freezing.
Turned out to be good that Paul spent the time winterizing the RV. It was covered with SNOW Saturday night. We got about two inches of the white stuff. Nice way to welcome us to Ohio.....LOL
We'll survive! We realized we were arriving a little early. We just wanted to get here and parked before any bad weather hit. It's suppose to warm up into the 60's by the first of the week. April can be an “iffy” month in Ohio. Nice days followed by cold or rain. Hopefully this is the last snow we'll have to endure!
Now that we are here, Marsha will spend hours with Kelly working on the wedding. Paul will get started remodeling the kitchen. Wonder which one will be more fun?
Bella has found one of the hottest spots in the house.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see y’all back real soon. Have a great day!
Glad you got home safely before the snow. That Bella is a smart kittie!
ReplyDeleteWell, April can be iffy around here as well. Supposed to go up to 12 tomorrow, (50 ish) so I can dig it.
ReplyDeleteglad you landed safely at home! enjoy the 'big house'!!
ReplyDeletePaul, you do such neat carvings and painting. I love that guy in the yellow slicker and rain hat:)
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it before the snow. That is not a pretty picture of the RV!! Bella is wondering what you were thinking by bringing her here!!
Enjoy your wedding planning, Marsha:) Paul, have a blast remodeling the kitchen!!!
That is a great picture of Bella. She is just too funny. I would be down there with her in that cold. Wedding planning or remodeling??? I almost think the remodeling might be easier.
ReplyDeleteKeep the snow up that way. I know Marsha will be having a blast with the wedding.
ReplyDeletePaul.....STAY OUT OF THE WAY..... It will be safer for you
Remodeling will be harder and wedding planning will be much more fun! Enjoy both, you two.
ReplyDeleteThe 5er just doesn't look right sitting in the snow. Hope it warms up soon for you.
ReplyDeleteGlad you arrived home safely!!! I am sure you didn't need that snowy welcome though!!
ReplyDeleteWe also have a house now and want to do some extended travel...do you have someone to look after it while you are away?? Just wondering! I worry about leaving for several months and the house sitting empty. Just wondering how you (or others) work this out??
Know what you mean by wanting to just get on home before any storms catch you. Like Paul's carvings. I know I wouldn't care much for having to remodel a kitchen but for sure I know I would not like having to plan a wedding..
ReplyDeleteHome safe and sound just need to get rid of that snow and all will be good.
ReplyDeleteOh, yuck!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you got back safely. I have to admit I would not want to be back in OH right now but there is wedding planning to get on with!
ReplyDeleteLove your carvings Paul, particularly the guy in the yellow rain gear.
Great looking wood carvings, Paul. What a welcome home....snow! At least the grass didn't need cutting!
ReplyDeleteWedding planning and prep is high on the agenda with our family too. Luckily for me, I don't get asked much about that.
I am way behind of blog reading so it seemed pretty surprising to see you back in Ohio already!
ReplyDeleteSending a belated happy birthday to Paul. What talent he has with the carving. Maybe he can do a bride and groom for the wedding cake!
Wedding planning and kitchen remodeling both sound exciting to me.
Glad you folks made it home safe. Enjoyed following you all and you're doings all winter. Can't believe you get snow right after you get back.
ReplyDeleteYikes, looks like you headed north just a wee too soon. Glad it was a safe and uneventful trip. Marsha, I know you're going to have way too much fun this summer with all that wedding planning.....I know I would :-)
ReplyDeleteGood to be safely home. Not so good to have it snow. Although, I have learned this winter that snow does help clean the outside of the rig. :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome home. Had to smile when I saw Rodeo Houston ... fun carvings, Paul.
ReplyDeletewah apik2 kui poto jane piye kui
ReplyDeleteTerima Kasih
Glad you guys made it safe.
ReplyDeleteWell good grief. ..welcome home indeed! Looks like that Bella's a smart one.
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping the weather has cleared up by now, and you're finding everything just as you left it. . .enjoy that wedding planning!
