Andrew and I have to get busy today.  We have lots to do before we head out back east for the holidays.  We took some things to our shed and picked up our backpacking gear.  We had to pack and clean out our refrigerator ad freezer and prepare the trailer to be gone for two months.  Mark came by and helped us winterize the trailer's water lines.  Chris and Cherie stopped by and helped us clean out the freezer by eating the rest of the ice cream.  It's a tough job, but they made the sacrifice!  Andrew and I left shortly after lunch and headed to Edwards. We are picking up our suitcases there and dropping off some stuff we don't want left in the trailer to freeze.  We've heard that December temperatures can reach well below zero.  We made it to Edwards and Villa Koransky in time to do some laundry and rest.
