Heading north.....

Yes, it's been almost a month since the last post.  My intention of writing and posting every three days fell apart pretty much the minute I articulated the plan. 

Could I in good conscience blog when I really needed to get my taxes done?  Of course not. Fawkes was no help at all. And while I wasn't blogging was I actually working on my taxes?  Nope. I needed to stress about taxes for at least a month before putting any numbers on paper. Why do I torture myself and does anyone else? I liken it to writing a semester paper the night before the semester ends. Fifteen weeks of mental anguish and 8 hours of real work. Every January 31st when those W2s and 1099s start landing in the mailbox and I'm right back in high school. 

While I was busy not getting my taxes done, I learned some new skills, RV trip planning for multi-leg multi-week excursions, making reservations at state and federal parks and the vagaries of on-line bookings. Oh, and during this time Fawkes wanted to move north. So we packed up and headed to Verde, AZ.  I'm happy to say that my second truck-hitching adventure only took one hour.  My first hitch hookup took over four hours. There might be hope for me.
