Reactivated Camping World discount membership (from 2003)
Joined Escapees RV club
Bought an atlas and Woodall's book of RV parks.
Researched to find a handful of parks that aren't closed this time of year. Somewhere to park it when it's all checked out.
Found RV storage in case I need it.
Returned computers I was working on for a local charity. Cleaned up a bunch of my computer stuff I won't be able to bring, and donated that too. Dropped all of that off on Wed.
Bills are all set up to come to me online, no mailings.
converted my 2 magazine subscriptions from paper mags to receiving digital online versions.
Arranged for Escapees membership stuff to come general delivery to Ogdensburg, NY post office so I will have their goodies on free places to park my RV.
Called around to get quotes for full insurance on the RV in case of any accidents. Ready to go, just have to call and activate it with CAA when I pick the trailer up.
got rid of some furniture and my old bike.
Did a bunch of research on different routes to take.
Helped research transpo options
All this while lots of personal stuff was going on, and while working my part-time job.
