I've been looking forward to our next trip to Pioche since we left there in December. At that time we were in a rented car, leaving the hotel in town since it was 20* at night and our house has zero insulation and holes in the walls, no beds, broken windows and no water so no toilet.
This next trip down we will focus on two things, interior wiring and getting the toilet sewer pipes hooked up so we can at least pee in the house. It's still going to be a ways down the road before we can have our own running water in the house, since I'm not up for paying $64 per month for it when we will only be there maybe 5 weeks per year. The neighbor Tom has said we can use his water all we want so I want to fill the bathtub and use a bucket to fill the toilet tank for flushing. I think its weird that I still haven't even tasted the water in town either.
Thats something I'll need to do on this next trip.
I've gotten SO MUCH STUFF for the trailer that we're taking down & leaving in the yard, a place for us to stay whenever we got down there. I'll have to get used to showering in a tiny tub, one that's smaller than the shower I currently use in our house in Washington. Eventually the house will be finished and I'll transfer all that stuff into the house, then we will sell the trailer.
Now, since we'll be leaving the trailer down there, will we need to cover it? We have a cover so that's not an issue but never having had a trailer down there long term leaves us with questions. We WILL winterize every time we're leaving so we won't have to worry about freezing pipes on future visits.
My horses are all fine, Wifi just turned 18 years old; I SOOooooo wish I could ride her. Joey will be 29 on April 15th, and Amble will be 4 on June 21st. They're all shedding and Joey looks like a floofy mongrel moose, he had matts all around his chest and belly but I got most of them off him. He will create more. Amble is shedding but slower and Wifi, as always, has a ton of hair.
