WE HAVE NEWS - RV Cruise in November

What a great day, no rain, about 50 degrees and we have news, finally. It took most of the day with calls back and forth to the dealer but we're on our way out on Monday, March 1. We could go tomorrow, but the weather will be bad here and in Claremont, plus high winds are expected. Our rent for the park ends on Sunday, so we figure Monday is safer and no extension or refund on the park. That means, we can go to the RV show at the fairgrounds on Friday. We should have fun and maybe get some freebies and info on different parks. I noticed that Willowtree will be there from SC, that's where our RV-Dreams rally will be April 7. Now I'm excited, can you tell?

We read blogs, emails and catching up on more change of address to companies. That's a real chore just in itself. Hopefully that won't happen anymore. We should have this new address for quite some time. We went to Walmart to pick up food and odds and ends to carry us over the weekend. The water was off at the park, but we're in an RV and have water in the tank, at least for awhile. We didn't fill up the tank because we knew we'd be moving soon.

A wire came loose from the back of the surround sound system and fell into the enclosed TV cabinet. Jim tried to rescue it by "fishing" it back out. He fussed with that most of the afternoon, but he finally got it. I just sat back and watched. It was quite entertaining.

In an email today we found something very interesting. We may have to look into this cruise. I thought I'd send it along in case there's others out there that would be interested. It's a cruise in November for RV'ers. Seminars will be given, it's seven days in the Eastern Caribbean. Click here for info.

We're hearing that Texas is getting snow, we'd be on our way down if we stayed on schedule. I'm glad we're not headed that way. We may get snow tomorrow night, but just a trace. At least we know we'll be warm and comfortable and Jim doesn't have to work anymore when it gets bad. I'm hoping Spring gets here soon.

Now I can plan getting things put away, secure the refrigerator stuff, and plan for all next week for a stay in Claremont, NC. We're going to Charlotte while we're there and do some day time traveling. This weekend we'll be at the fairgrounds for the RV show and take mom out one more time. Ahhh, nice to know what we're doing and when. Hang on gang, it's going to get interesting.

Well you are correct. Things will get more interesting and more fun at the same time. Good for Jim getting that wire fixed. Jim those problems will keep you busy. I like having little projects around the place to keep me from getting board. I know you are both excited about getting to move on. Have fun and stay safe.

Hello Dee & Jim........you will love the Willow Tree Resort. Jeff & I have camped there about 5 times. It's very secluded in the woods and it's all concrete pads/roads not to mention a nice pond with a walking/riding trail, swimming pool. We just love staying there. I wish you & jim the best. Safe travels.
