Meds will be out of whack, so they do take that into consideration. That and his cardiologist is head guy....
I will remind everyone the day before, so we can get good vibrations, and after he is out.... Thanks Steve....

Think the idea was less distance between bed and potty...
Mel..... Does Kate know how to post on here? She does know that she HAS to post to let us know when you are in recovery...
It is a requirement to keep her St. status....
Either that or text one of us, so we can post it.....

R U an RV Mutant
So in doing some web surfing I came across the worlds biggest RV show in Hersey PA is next week.. hmm always wanted to go but also know its a very bad idea. So I make the mistake of telling the dear wife that I had a bad idea and I know I should not tell, of course I have to now.
Looks like we will be at the show next weekend...just to look.
Wish me luck......
If any mutants are also going drop me a pm.

Ed, at least you know who rules and you always know when you MUST tell. But, on the other hand, you have five fingers. Surely some of them can cross?
Naw! You'll love it. We "looked" there for years, only came away with RV trinkets and a ton of confused thoughts.

Sooo...MH loaded with all critters...3 trips up and down the driveway forgot this..forgot that...and then..."Honey...where's the cat?" Meow from under the dash...and the gauges die...all of them. And it's back to the stable...
20 minutes to get the cat coaxed out...Bird returned to house, while Dad figures out whats wrong..Gus, my Lab, provided Air support by panting on me as I took the dash apart.
10 Screws later...Main panel harness was pulled loose...now plugged back in...all is well. We are now 2 hours past scheduled takeoff. (It's The Journey Mark...right folks?)
Ok...DW comes back out, "Should we leave the cat home?" YES
Off we go...50 miles into the trip the GPS tells me to turn down a smaller road...ok, maybe a shortcut right? Nope...not short AT ALL...
At mile 7, it went from asphalt to gravel and mud after 18 Very Steep hills...and one tiny Bridge Out Sign...detour ahead...Welcome To CECIL TUCKEY... DW cues the Deliverance music...not funny honey...
Now all gravel and no way to turn off we finally crest a final hill and see heavy equipment as we look down a 15% downhill grade and a drop off that would make a Sky Diver wince.
But...there's good news..they cut a turn around road for Tractors... Whew...
So back we go...Down the roller coaster...(it's the Journey Right?)
GPS takes us down another less perilous road and we roll into Elk Neck Park, finally.
Main gate...closed...2nd entrance 12' restriction...I'm 12'6"... Off to the left is an exit road...narrow but open. I take it...head to our assigned spot and get set up...saaaweeet.
Water is tasty, power steady and spot, pretty level. Enjoyed 2 quiet days, meeting fellow campers and learning the life.
This morning, about 4 am, the sky cut loose and it poured till 8am. Dumped the gray and black tank will minor hiccups but managed not to spill anything.
When I went to turn key, click, click...nada. Brand new Chassis battery...Hit Emergency Start...barely started.
Decided to stop at a local diner to eat...came out...nope...not gonna start. Hit the E Start...fired. Whew...
Came home...backed in turned it off...tried to restart.DEAD...nothing.
Remembered who put it in (the dealer)...checked cables...not even finger tight...wow.
So...that's my story...Thanks for the Warm welcome...we have survived the gauntlet... I AM A MUTANT!

Yep Mark feel free to use my line anytime! "Man I love RVing!"
