Second beginning

Well, it has finally begun.  Today is day number one of DALNKAL's Journey.  Last night we purchased our travel trailer and spent our first night in it.  All seems to be well with it.  The air conditioner works well as does all the plumbing.  It is used so a little work is expected but so far no real problems.  We are still trying to figure pout where everything will go in here (clothes, food, pots and pans ... etc).  In an RV space is a premium quantity so you can't waste any.  We have spent our first night at Montgomery Bell State Park in Burns TN.  This is out favorite camping location, so far.  We can only stay here for 14 days and then we have to leave for 3 so we may just take a short trip to Tunica, MS and stay at the Harrah's there.  We've been there before in the motor home and the campground is nice and they have a great pool.  May be a little early for that but we'll see.
   Karen retired on the 13th of April and I hope to be able to retire at the end of May.  We have taken the house off the market since we had little to no response to it and are now trying to rent it.  We had someone just about ready to move in and then they backed out so we have re-posted to Craig's List and have had some inquiries about it.
  We are going to Chattanooga, TN with Donnie and Leschelle and the kids for a week at the end of May and will let you know how that goes.  After that we are looking forward to our futur e travels and will keep everyone informed on here how it goes.  Travel plans have probably changed because of the price of gas these days but we are still intending to set out to somewhere.  We'll let you know where.
