It seems like just yesterday when we started this plan. It’s been 18 months! A lot has happened in that time. We added a member to the family, found homes for several other 4 legged members and ended an era where fresh veggies & eggs were on the menu. We sold a house, and most of our personal belongings and found a house on wheels. We transplanted a new heart in our vehicle and renovated the trailer to fit our “style”.
When we formed our social media pages, there were more than 200 days until launch. Today marks 4 weeks left! So, exactly 28 days from this moment, we should be setting up in our first campsite as a “full time family” There seems like so much to do still.
We won’t be having sales the next 2 weekends, I am working this coming Saturday, and the following weekend is the NWMT Fair. We live adjacent to the fairgrounds parking, so having a sale might not be very practical, and the kids are involved in various activities for the fair. The daycare officially closes on the 26th, at that point we will completely empty the house, and the final sale will be on. We are expecting it to last most of the time through Labor Day weekend. We will spend that last weekend here finishing up, cleaning up, and preparing for departure.
We have been living (well sleeping) in the trailer for a couple months now, so the next transition will be to start cooking and such. We need to fill the water tanks, make sure everything is good to go, and finish organizing.
We have been working on our Social Media outlets, videos, reviews, blog posts, website, and all of that. It’s a lot of work, and to know about each and every one of these avenues. We have been following other families doing the same thing we are about to do. It’s definitely interesting to see all these different people doing the same thing, but a little bit differently. Ok, a lot differently! But they are all interesting and entertaining in their own way.
