Four Months Away

Four months. That's all.

Time is now seeming to accelerate towards the big day. We're exactly four months away today from our delivery day in Leipzig and the anticipation is building. It helps that my vacation has finally been approved at work, removing what was a rather large stressor for a few weeks. I mean, to have come this far and then have that throw a wrench into the works? Unimaginable!

We're now into schedule planning, figuring out who will be able to crew for us and when. Packing will be tight, and we will be moving about the continent, so it will take some careful coordination to have some people involved taking photos, shooting video, being the people behind the scenes that we need to help make this what we want it to be.

A few folks on the forums have given me great props for the "surprise my folks" idea, which is nice. That's going to be a key and fitting finale to this chapter of The GTS Chronicles, and I'm hoping that post-Europe, we are looking at sometime late September / early October for a Halifax pickup and NB visit on the drive back to Ottawa.

Lots of work to do to get ready, but it's all fun stuff now, in the pursuit of the dream. Onward!
