BACK HOME SAFE AND SOUND

Left Marksville around noon today and arrived home about 4:00 this afternoon.  Stopped once for fuel and to heat up some left-overs for a late lunch. 

I hate driving through Lafayette!  The roads are awful.  The bumps and potholes shake up everything in the RV... and makes for a constant banging sound.  I just know one of these days that the whole axel will fall off while driving on that road.  It might not be like that in a different vehicle but in this Class C it is awful.  If I return to Texas this coming winter I will not go through Lafayette.  I'll find a way to bypass it completely.

The doggies were so happy when we pulled into the driveway.  I opened the front door of the house and went back to open the RV door and out they ran and I mean RAN into the house.  They were running in circles around the kitchen and into the living room.  It was obvious that they were very happy. 

So now I'll wash off all of the sand and dirt on the RV and put the cover I purchased at Camping World on it for the next 4 months.  Haven't had any takers on my For Sale ad.  If it doesn't sell by December, I'll trade it in on a Class B.  I am feeling more confident with that decision every day.

Well, since I don't blog unless I'm camping in the motorhome - this is my last post for the summer.

Stay safe out there you RVers.

    1. Hi Grammy... If I make the trip to Florida it will be to go to Gainesville to look at that Class B Pleasure Way I want. It might not be till December as that is when the lot gives a $5000 drop in price. It would be nice if we could meet up. I'll let you know when I decide to do that. Have a great summer.

    1. Hi Barbara... I might do some blogging on Xi Shi's blog so be sure to check it out. I too am hoping to get a good price for the Coachmen whether by selling it outright or as a tradein. I'm in contact with the dealer in Florida and hope he can make me a good deal within the next few months.

      Good to hear from you.

    1. Hi Lynda... Summertime is just not a good time for me to enjoy being out and about. The heat makes me ill. I hope to be back on the road again in October.
