RE: vehicle registration costs by state
McCall...we are going up manana to check out all the stores, etc. We should close escrow in a couple of weeks and be in before the snows get serious:B
We are really looking forward to the move.....

RE: Snow load
Chain, yup that's the kind of snow we expect!
Newk...if you want to take the whole rig south, we will make you a heck of a deal :B
Looks like we are closing the shortest escrow in history, so will have to do something in the next couple of weeks :E

RE: Eek! There's a mouse.
We use regular Victor spring mousetraps baited with peanutbutter and a raisin or dried cranberry. We also set the glue boards. We put them everywhere! Set about 6 traps and 3-4 glueboards.

RE: Snow load
Thanks one and all. We will not have the option of moving south. We will be up on the mountain tomorrow and plan on talking to the one and only rv dealer. Hopefully it will be a light snow winter :W
I appreciate all of your answers. In many ways they have relieved my mind......sort of :E
Chain...thank you for the advice. We will probably end up trying to keep the bulk of the snow off, one way or another.... How in the world did you stay on the roof without falling off?

RE: Changing Banks when changing residency
nickpick...that is a good thing.....there is no reason to close those cards, just keep doing what you are doing and you will be fine.
In 45 plus years we have never carried a balance on a cc. It has swerved us well. Two weeks ago we walked into an auto dealer and a couple of hours later drove out with a brand new 2009 SUV. No down and financed for 72 months. Just like that :E
If you keep on the way you are, even this economy will not make much of a difference. The best of luck to you on your new adventure :B

RE: Lime-Away
Does the fiver have a washer/dryer? If so, the sludge may be built up powdered laundry soap........

Snow load
We will be winterizing our Teton for the first time. We will be in heavy snow country and our house has no protection for the fiver. DH is planning on keeping most of the snow off...but I am against him getting up there in any capacity :E
How much of a snow load can a fiver handle? It must make some difference if the snow is "heavy" or light? Any ideas for a temporary snow roof over the fiver? We can store it somewhere where the snow is less, but we really want to keep it with us.....

RE: freshwater tank for winterizing
We will be doing our first winterizing...ever :E
I understand what y'all are saying....but what about the washer? Run the pump 'til it has antifreeze in it? and then the drain hose?

RE: Combo washer/dryers ??
We have a GE Spacesaver stack. The washer is a regular size tub and will wash a normal load. The dryer holds a normal load of light items and takes about 45-60 minutes to dry. Heavy items, like jeans, jackets, sweats and towels, I divide into two loads to dry. I can wash and dry at the same time. They do a great job. I hate landromats.....

RE: Changing Banks when changing residency
We did the same as you and in addition opened and account at a CU in Sioux Falls. We got creditcards thru them and eventually closed the ones in our former banks. We did leave one account with my IRA open with a $5 savings acct. It worked well with no problems. As far as accts in 2 states...we have accts in three and no problems. We pay income tax on those accts for the interest we earn.
Why do you need 2 long lines of credit? I suggest closing them as soon as possible. Don't hit the road with debt. Are you planning on fulltiming?

RE: HAVE TO ASK
We are fine. We had an exit strategy. Unfortunately we cashed in our investments as the market was going down. Lost a bit, but we are out and putting our funds into dirt. It will take a better economy to sell our rig, so we will wait that out. Meanwhile, we will store the fiver and move into the house......and Mom will relocate to Idaho in the spring.
This proved to us that our exit strategy was a good thing.

RE: A Fork in the Road
Thank you one and all :B
Yes, we will miss the road, we already do, even tho we are still on it. The logistics are a bit daunting, especially in the current economic situation. We are moving to the mountains at the worst time of year, but we are resilient, so will make it. Hopefully we will be in before the heavy snows pile up:E
We have already made friends in the area and they are a wealth of info, which we are taking to heart. My Mom is so excited she is ready to dump her house and move right up :B All of this is a whole new thread, which I will get onto, as soon as I get my head around it....
