I just wanted to say "thank you" to all those wonderful Texaninas.

We came with nothing and now we're using your resources and you still welcome us from Louisiana. We've received so much help and comfort.

Thank you all who helped us here at Galveston/Dickinson area.

You guys have a heart.

Thank you
Willy

I know that things are "BIG" in Texas but the size of their hearts in bigger than their great state!

N8353C -
We welcome you to Texas even though it's under this tragedy of circumstances. We hope you'll find peace and comfort while you're here and know you'll make lasting friendships here with those who are honored to be of help to you.

We've got Texas Boomers in Galveston and Dickinson area - all over the southern part of the state. IF YOU NEED HELP OF ANY KIND, don't hesitate to contact us on this board and we'll be there to do whatever we can.

If you'll email me at sandycreek@ev1.net, I'll keep in touch by phone as well.

Take care, buddy, you're not alone!

Sandy

My online life depends on the public library here in Dickinson.

So, sorry that I didn't could get back to you sooner.

Everybody is so awesome, kind and helpful. And yes, even things are awkward, we kinda' settle down our minds.

Thank you to all of you, to all of you GREAT People.

And Sandy: yes, I'll email you. Actually I would need some pointers.

Cheerio
Willy

Y'All!

Thank you all for yr offers and help.

The shock is deep and I guess it will take awhile it all settles in. Life sometimes has its twist. I bought the coach a few weeks ago as a weekend-escape and now its our 'lifeboat': we live fulltime in it.

Well, she is an old lady and certainly has her little 'twists'. I got some electrical problems fixed, but I still struggle with a big glitch:

The prior owner used car/starter batteries as 'house batteries'. Since I am on shore power, I wouldn't mind. BUT: The 8D starter battery is connected with the 'house system' through a 'battery switch', which obviously failed (my starter battery is drained). So I plan to install a SurePower Battery Separator.
QUESTION: Where do I get a Group 1 unit in the Houston area?


any pointers?

Thank you all
Cheerio
Willy

For just about any parts for motorhomes/travel trailer I would check with PPLMotorhomes.com or there is a RV Parts Dealer in Dickinson, TX by the name of Dues(sp?) who might could help.

If you need anything while in the area, we are in Alvin, TX not far from you, feel free to call upon us. We will help if possible.

thanks guys,

I decided to hold off on any not live-needed repairs for budget reason.

Driving around contacting all agencies, foodstamps and basic needs is just eating up my small budget.

So I'll better stay put. Again, thank you all

Cheerio
Willy

Harry,

what an offer! Thank you so much. Fortunately I am at a place where I can stay.
I also got word from friends in California that they have housing AND work for me (YEAH)
All I have to do is to find a way westbound (yes, I know it the I-10, but my old lady runs on DIESEL). =;-> Looking at the price tag lately makes me feel ... dizzy (?)

So, I probably will work for a week or so filling my budget.

Or (thats the moment I'll wake up hot and sweaty) the people from FEMA get their a$$ in gear and I'll get some assistance from them ... (Satellite pics show my house clearly 10 feet under, so why do we need an adjuster??!!).

So far, people in this area have been great. I have some food, I have a place to stay AND I AM ALIVE ...

Cheerio
Willy
