Hank must be laying under that new motor-home fixing something. I think he said he would check in if he had the chance?

Didn't have to fix anything except the fresh water connection. It leaked a little, worn out hose washer and a little corrosion.
We were pretty busy, my uncle and another couple were there. Went to Saugatuck, one day. Drove down to Indiana another, my uncle wanted to load up on cigarettes. It rained that day so no great lose. Rained Thursday night but other than that the weather was nice. The colors were nice, had a campfire every night. Got pretty cold Friday night, had to turn on the furnace, the electric heater wasn't enough. Not bad for the first outing, no major mishaps. The dog and cat got use to it right away and acted just like they do at home. My son came out too since he had a weeks vacation to burn, he came back Friday, that's why we had to take the dog and cat with us. All and all not bad. We could manage for an extended trip to go see some of the country. A bigger MH would be better but not a necessity if it's just Lynda and I. |

What day were you in Saugatuck Hank? Carol and I drove thru Douglas in the Chevelle on Sunday. Glad to hear everything went well in your new house on wheels.

The Chevelle is running good!
Carol & I took the back roads with the Chevelle on alittle color tour Sunday. Thats how we ended up in the Saugatuck/Douglas area. It was beautiful day for a cruise. I wanted to burn up some gas before I park it so I can replace the gas tank this winter. No, I'm not waiting till next summer to do that either.

I like a warm, comfortable bed, heat at night, a shower and bathroom. No it's not camping, I don't think I called it camping. It's just getting away for a few days and enjoying the outdoors and the company of friends. |

Like a 'big ole rollin turd' Tony. It's not really that bad, not like a car but not that bad. You do feel the wind from semi's or just blowing across open areas. Don't think I could drive it as long in one day as I would in the car. You have to be driving all the time and I think that would wear you out.
