We're Famous!.......Well, kinda

     Our "infamous" Christmas card picture has been published in the Nov./Dec. 2010 issue of Escapees Sharing the RV Lifestyle magazine. We've started getting feed back on it. Here's the 
photo in case you missed it.

     We've tried to come up with ideas to top this one but have never quite succeeded.

LET ME EXPLAIN IF I MAY

   Some of you have viewed the new addition to our blog, the U.S. map showing the states we have visited, & have raised questions.
   Old friends want to know why we are showing only 3 states when they know that we have traveled to several states, Canada & Mexico.
   New acquaintances want to know why the states between Indiana & South Carolina are not colored in; surely we passed through others to reach our S.C. destination.
   Here's where the 'splainin' part comes in to play. We have criteria that each state must meet in order to be colored in on our map. We feel that passing through a state or even resting ones head there overnight just doesn't count as having visited the state. We feel we must spend at least one week seeing the sights in any one state for it to be designated on our map. Now in response to our "old" friends, we must be in the "Suite Pea" when we do it. "Suite Pea" is only 2 yrs. old & hasn't traveled extensively yet.

     Sure hope this answers y'all questions!

2010 Heading in the right direction

   Well its been 2 years now.  We have been to North Carolina, and South Carolina.  Been back up north a couple of times.  And today we have arrived at our first Escapade in Goshen, Indiana.  Tomorrow will be opening ceremonies, then we will start learning what we'll need to know so we can begin our new life style.  We are getting more and more comfortable in our 5th wheel.  We should leave here with more information to help that dream happen.

On the Property

   After some work we finally got her in a nice little spot on the property in Kalkaska, Michigan. We had a great 2 weeks. All the Suite systems worked perfectly, and the weather was fabulous!

WE HAVE OUR WAGON!!!!!!!!!!

   A lot of time has gone by since we last posted. Our truck came in, followed by our coach. It has been sitting at the Walnut Ridge Campground for the last six weeks where we are camped. We are now the proud owners of a 36 ft. RSSB3 Mobile Suites. We love every inch of it. What a great coach! Everything has worked just like they said it would. We did have one small leak but the techs came right over and fixed it.

   After leaving the coach out at Walnut ridge for over a month, last Wed. June 18, 2008 we brought her home. My first time pulling anything this big. I think I did ok, the Trailair system was very good. Even to a Newbie like me. Backing it up into the yard was a trip in itself. But I took it slow and now she sits along the garage waitin' for our next adventure. I can't quit staring at it.

MEET MOOCH

   "Hi my name is Mooch, I'm a Treat-a-holic. I can't stand to see the pantry door being opened. It drives me nuts! I know there are bags of the "Good Life Recipe" treats in there and I need them, I NEED THEM I TELL YA".........
   Yes, we are embarrassed to admit it, but our 15 lb (and growing),tabby, has an addiction and we are his willing enablers.

MEET TUCKER GEORGE

   "Hi my Name is Tucker, I keep hearing that I'm moving but I ain't seen anything pull up in the driveway yet! Dad, says were moving into something called a fifth wheel. "What the heck is a Fifth Wheel?"

  Tucker's our year and half old Golden Retriever, who doesn't know that he's adopted. When you meet him please don't let on that you know. He supports and practices "the family bed" theory (and the family table theory too, now that I think of it.) Tuck's motto, "I get dibs riding shotgun."
