The Golden's Are Heading To The Golden State!
Casita's Maiden Voyage

It took two days to finalize packing the Airstream. Although we have sold most everything we own, there was still a lot to deal with in loading. Jennifer and I agree that we now have 1/5th of what we brought to Texas.We had initially packed most everything in Casita, then loaded tools in the truck. When we hitched the two together, the truck was sagging too much and since we were exhausted, we just decided to sleep in the Airstream that night [in our driveway] and start fresh in the morning.

We got up the next day, completely unloaded the truck and redistributed the weight in the trailer. SO MUCH WORK! We left yesterday [Sunday] and drove as far as Abilene and stayed the night. Airstream pulled along fine - although I wouldn't want to load one more pound in it. I think we've got it pretty maxed out so the truck is being put to test also. We are taking it slow at around 50 to 60 miles per hour - so it's gonna take a while. We are just so exited to finally be coming home.

Cali-fornie . . . here we come!
