On Monday, it was a near disaster with the lock we've been keeping around the tire. We couldn't get it off, and the lubricant recommended by a locksmith wasn't helping. Luckily, R looked on the manufacturer's website and with the help of his lucky breaker bar, we were able to hammer it into submission and the key finally turned. It would have been a bitch to get off otherwise, so that was definitely a bit of luck.
The offending lock:

Since then, it has been packing the trailer, selling stuff, and cleaning out junk. Sunday/Monday/Today have been exceedingly busy and I know we are both looking forward to getting on the road.
The packing progress:
1. Still a long way to go

2. Creative packing

3. Almost full!

Estimated departure is Thursday. Now is finishing clearing out my apartment, seeing people and running those last minute annoying errands. If this were an 800m race, we'd be down to the final 150 meters. Tired, but pushing forward because we can't wait to be done.
Minnie has not been of much help, but apparently has been spending way too much time online and is exhausted.

That's all for now. Too tired for interesting words.
