Weepy Monday coming

Question

Guess the time is really here.  Rocky is moving to LA with his new dad on Monday.  DH washed it within an inch of it's life - better than when he was officially ours!  The interior was already spotless compliments of me.  The paperwork done, money done, now all his dad has to do is come for him.  I can hardly look out there now and not feel so sad, but it's part of the plan for our future.  Don't have to like this part, but it's necessary.  I don't want to see Rocky go down the street this last time.  It doesn't take much to make me weepy, and DH likely, too.  We've had 7 wonderful years with our HTT and 1 1/2 with Rocky and will miss it terribly.  Have to stay focused on the new lifestyle coming and be happy for his new dad, who is thrilled beyond belief....been there.  I suggested to his new dad that he hop on RVNet and hope he will.  Very nice guy from the Bayou state.  I'll likely take a peek here from time to time.  Thanks for all the good info, great stories and tire discussions - JK on the tires.  Happy Camping all and be safe.

Let Rocky go and keep the memories! Sounds like he's going to a good home!

I know the feeling. I sold ours last year and I priced it high but fairly. some one from out of state bought it and I think about her all the time. Hoping they take care of her like I did. she was a good trailer and served us well. Many good times camping and hunting. buying her new shoes and tires when she needed them etc. Hard to let go isn't it when you have such good memories.

It is amazing how attached we get to our old trailers.  DW was so sad when we sold our first one.  We have never before been so attached to a piece of personal property.  I guess that's because it is a box full of happy memories -- it is like losing part of your history.

I know.We are now on our third TT. Each one being bigger and better than the last one. But I have had a lump in my throat watching each of them leave for the last time

When we picked Rocky up at the dealers we hadn't sold the ROO yet, so we had 2 trailers for a short time.  I think it helped having the ROO go off the list and the fun anticipated with Rocky.  Now we'll have a huge empty Rockyport staring at us.  Oh, well....at least my little car is not so cramped.  Yes, he will have a good home and we'll move on to the next phase of our lives.  But, for sure, we're attached to this large white box.  Next step is to find a new family for this house and head south to our new home in FL.  Lots of changes, but we feel good about them, albeit rather unsettled at the moment.  Not crazy about a lot of loose ends.  I'm ready to UNpack rather than pack.
