Been trying to catch up on the group by reading the old posts. Spent several hours last night and got all the way to July! Ok I skipped a few pages but how's counting. What I didn't see I won't miss! As I read I pondered about just how long it might take for the mutants to rule the world. I think that the mutant population has been the silent majority long enough and it is time to make our move! Or maybe I just need to have another cup of coffee and wait for this feeling of superiority pass! Don't worry, the meds will kick in soon and all will be good again! Good Morning fellow mutants!

Nope. Not registering. Maybe a spell in the hot tub will bring it out.

Welcome to the group to you.

Cheers !!!
Yes we love bacon in almost every way. Had some deep fried on a stick and was not impressed. Not the bacons fault though, not quite crispy enough for me! Don't believe in recipes, bacon goes well in anything! As for patting my head and rubbing my stomach at the same time, now that is a much lengthier subject. Suffice it to say only on Thursdays and only to the left. Still pondering on why that is. Pondering is one of my favorite pastimes so having a whole group pondering at the same time is......well....much better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick!

As a Bounder owner myself, I am always looking to read and review the what other Bounder owners are doing. Bob and Joan have dug into their RV Machine with a vengence. I especially like the use of a white "wrought iron" bed frame in the bedroom. If you mutants have any doubt as to what a mutant might do to make the machine "right" take a look at the Mods thread. These two have been busy.

Now if they can break away long enough to tell us they don't have dishwasher, electric dump valves, or whatever, and don't miss it, we can get on with issuing them RVM Number 53!! As Marty said woot woot... and hoot to boot.

Come on Bob and Joan.... the mutants are waiting.
RVM2
Just to clarify, we did not need the wrought iron bedposts, we just wanted them! Being frugal(okay poor) we shop mainly what we refer to as junk stores. Paid $20 for the bed posts! The whole remodel/repair cost less than $400 and that includes the 8 feet of roof/ceiling we replaced. Now moving on to the kitchen area just as soon as the checkbook recovers! Will post more pics when available.

Hello and Good Morning to one and all,

To those of you who are guests of this thread right now, go back to the first pages and read about how it is we became, and if there are things you dont have and dont miss and if your journey is the destination, you may well be mutants too. So jump on in and test the waters, and I think you will find the BACON crisp and the ponderances many.

Cheers !!!

WOW! 8 pages to ketchup on over the last few days while NOT setting in the hot tub (Mutant for I still have a job. Is that good or bad, let me ponder). Congrats and welcome to the newly joined Mutants.

To expand on your ponder... if you have an job and would miss it, then yes it is a good thing to have. If you have no job and need one, that is not so good me thinks. Only until you can honestly say, I have no job and don't miss it, is it a good thing not to have one. When I can motor away on down the rainbow and not miss it, my job will be in the review mirror - forever out of sight and out of mind. Plan you work. Work you plan. Make your escape as soon as you can. The RVMdom and rainbow await us - along with an ever growing number of RVMs to have many mini-curousities and some Grande Curiosities as well!

Bob:

I sure hope you are coming to JC in Hot Springs because I can't wait to see your MH. I've got an older 86 Allegro that a friend would like to buy but both he and I are dubious about doing the ceiling and if we pay someone to do it, that would mess up the transaction. Too high a cost for me for the selling price and too much for him for a purchase price.

Would you like to be a "Winter Texan" on a 15' X 50' slab and work a trade?
