We got word today that our new 30RSO Limited was just delivered to our dealer. They are doing their prep and because of our schedule ( I have a day of work - Monday I can't get out of). We are going Tuesday and will be spending Thanksgiving in the RV!!!! That will give us Tuesday and Wednesday before our two sons arrive on Thursday. I'm so excited I can hardly stand it. This began over a year ago with lots of research, looking, reading and more research so its hard to believe the day has come. Our only sad part is putting it away for winter. In April we will be bringing it to Cedar Rapids and begin the move into it. Now. in the last little while the bar has been set pretty high for photos but photography is my thing and we'll give it our best shot to share with you next week.

Janie & John...I am soooo excited for the two of you!! This will be only the third year that I can remember not spending Thanksgiving in our RV since we have owned one (1988). I hope you plan on even a simple Thanksgiving supper in your new home this next week - after all... you have a lot to be thankful for!!

Congrats again..and you know.. I think it is about time you add the Excel Owners Club below your name!

We went to the dealer's yesterday, our pre-approval was running out and wanted to get that part done. We were able to spend a little time in the rv. I love the way it turned out. I did get a few photos an they are up on facebook but with the forum down last night didn't get them done here. I may wait until next week when I will have time to do them right. Thanks everyone!

Janie & John

Congrats

You two will love it. Don't think you need to put it away for winter.

We spent one Christmas in our tag-a-long in the mountains until the Rangers came over and told us to go home as a bad storm was moving in and said we we didn't move they may not be able to help us for a week.

Thought about it for some time but decided to go home but we had three good days in the mountains over Christmas.
