Best time of the Year

Well, in just a few short weeks we will celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. It's hard to believe another year has almost passed, and we even met more people, we are truly blessed. Thanksgiving was great with the Girls handeling a bit of it of course Mom and I did the biggest part, still piecing on the leftovers. Finally went to pick up the trailer from Coushatte campground, we had a really nice site and kinda hated to put her back in storage. All cleaned up and waxed, but I see rain in the forecast. Checked the slideout going in and it apeared that all the seals were ok, guess will find out more after the sweetheart campout. Amber and Leza went bead shopping yesterday, getting ready to make some more jewelry for gifts, etc. Looking forwrd to the Christmas Rally and seeing some friends we haven't seen in a while, till next time.

Oh Wow first problem

Well, we just experienced our first major problem with the trailer. We left it at Coushatte to wash and wax it and clean the interior real good. The last time out we noticed an area under the slide out that had been wet. The residue was rusty colored and ran from under the slide out in front of the bar and against the curbside. Saturday when we went out and Amber found an area in front of the Dinette seat that had been wet, and bubbled the floor in a small area by it. It did not get under the seat area just in front by the street side wall. Well don't you know that since Coachman sold out to Forrest River they have no service department and only Robbie the Robot answering the phones. I emailed the service department of Forrest River, but haven't heard from them yet. The unit was just a year old the end of June, and had been giving it good reviews, no major problems till this. I'm off Tuesday and Wednesday and hope to fing the problem and get it fixed. The quality of RV's still appear to be there, any brand any type, hopefully the manufactures can get their S=== togeather and regain customer confidence, it seems customer service has went by the wayside.

Coushatte Campout

Another Great Campout with the Texas Boomers, it was nice to see so many old friends and a few new ones. The weather couldn't have been much better, mild sunny days and cool evenings.
I had the first chance to use my new fire pit that I got at the September Rally auction. Saturday's visit to the Newman Castle was nice. It is hard to imagine that one man could have done so much work in building that castle. For those of you that may have missed it here is the link to the castle site. Newman's Castle Slideshow . We are definately Blessed to have so many old and new friends, and to have been given the opportunity to have been asked to be the area leaders for the Southeast Boomers. Sorry we didn't get any pictures. I have a few video clips but don't know how to post.
