Morning group, boy it's hard to beat rail to the first post of the day, it's almost as if he's on the other side of the earth! Lol

Up early to take son & DIL to airport, they are usually the ones dropping us off so the tables are turned. Wish I was going, they'll be doing some skiing, not that I could keep up with them, was once good, more of an après skier now, I set by a log fire with the best of them!

Have some good coffee and a good day!

H&S, That was a good one, I had my drink coming out of my nose! I went back and looked at the time of my post, 1am or so? It was after lunch here, I think we are 12 hours ahead of the central time zone! We never did get the rain, so the truck will still look good tomorrow! The DW was looking at flights today, and it looks like we will be flying into PHX the first week of april or so! Wow, can't wait!
Everyone have a great day! Enjoy the coffee!! Rail!

Morning Everyone;
It is 55 here right now. Finishing coffee and then off to help a neighbour lay some patio stones. He will end up with about 350 ft2 of stones. Laid the sand the other day and now it is just the final lift and lay the stone.

Super Bowl tomorrow. Who is everyone hoping for. I have been a Seahawks fan for years but not a 12. Hope it is a good game with several lead changes. Always like the excitement.

SO, the Newmar MH in Texas that I thought was gone (because it was no longer on the website) is now back up for sale. Fate? Still in Texas where I can't get right now, but it opens up the questions in my mind.

Good Day Everyone, !8* this am, light snow, right now but supposed to get up to 16" later tonight. Bap, I never heard of those two, if the price is right........more projects. Gordon, I never watch the super bowl, but this year we have a local puppy in the puppy bowl, I might catch that. Lynne, maybe the financing didn't go thru on the MH. Have a great day all.

Lynne
Lynne - is it possible for the dealer to set up a video conference. The dealer we purchased our coach from has a video conference feature. We can get a hook up over the internet with two way.

We were able to see whatever we wanted as we had communication with them during the video tour. We could direct them to point at whatever we wanted, do close ups, etc. Not quite as good as being there but . . . it will give you a very good idea of the general condition. Do closeups of various wear points like rugs at doorway, possible rub areas on walls, condition inside cabinets.

If that would work you could put a small deposit on it conditional to whatever both of you can agree on. An indpendent inspection, age of the tires, all appliances working, etc.

If it is your coach it will happen. You just may have to help it along a bit.

Huntski and Bap,


Like your vintage trailers, they look great! I loved camping when I was a kid and these things (when they came out) were a wonder for people moving from a tent.

My drive home tonight

Good evening all,

This was my drive home tonight. Started this AM and is supposed to go all night long. High winds blowing the snow into drifts and I don't think I am going to make it to work tomorrow.

Neighbours across the road at the Resort just purchased a 38' 5er. They are currently in a 22' TT. Needless to say they are really excited as we are for them.

Delivery is scheduled for Wednesday.
