Hi to all and Happy Holidays

I am a oldtimer with RV's and am now driving a 2005 Vacationer (HR) 36DBD (1.5 baths) and pull a '05 GMC Canyon CrewCab 4WD pickup. I am a single RV'er (actually removed the co-pilot seat for more room in coach - not pesimistic just practical for now). Travel with three co-pilots however - Evie (5), Sparty (4), and Bumor (9) my little white Maltese kids.

I just sold my home in Henderson, NV this month and am now "homeless". I am 65 and on SSI and a pension from Fannie Mae where I retired from. I work as a contract mortgage due dilgence/underwriter and have for over 10 years. Work mostly in Orange County, CA and keep coach at Canyon RV Park in

OOPs,
My wireless keyboard quit as I was posting so my message ended before I was through.

So here is the rest using the keyboad on laptop directly.

"and keep coach at Canyon RV Park in Anaheim Hills, CA (former Featherly Park).

Starting in March 2006 I will be on the road for the rest of the year headed east to Florida for the Sebring races, then the RV Rally at Daytona Beach, and to visit friends in Naples/Marco Island.

Then in May I have a factory appt at Monaco in Elkhart, IN for a few minor repairs.

The will go on to Michigan and spend most of summer in Petoskey, Traverse City area, and Saugatuck. In Fall will stay in East Lansing for the MSU football season (hopefully better this year). I am a MSU alum (1963) and still have season football seats (2) which my Dad started in 1958 when I was a freshman. I still renew them every year whether I go to games or not.

Then back to Calif after the season ends and back to Canyon RV Park. My 88yr old Mother still is active in Sonoma, CA and brother in Portland and sister in Sonoma so will spend some time with them when get back.

Thats about it for now.
