Partly to avoid situations like the OP described, and to minimize competition for spots, we tend to travel during the week and stay home on weekends. We love kids but there are limits. We are old.

You are in good company -- and I'm not that old lol. You love YOUR kids, and YOUR dog -- not everyone else's!

We love children and animals. But once they cause monetary damage, I can not help to be upset...Same as our horse scratching his back on our truck mirrors. Never would have thought that something so innocent could have cost so much!

Oh nooooooooo. I have a sick feeling in my stomach for you. I hope Newmar can fix it so it is not noticeable. September is such a long time away to be looking at it each day.

They will repair good as new. Just peel off the old Diamond Shield, repair fiberglass/paint, and reapply new sheet of Diamond Shield. Just the hassle of insurance and time to repair. I was able to repair the upper mount bracket on the headlight assembly.

I went to clean off the bugs from the front end yesterday and thought it was a big bug attached to the front at first, LOL.
