First Day of Fall...


Well, it's here...Fall.  I'm not happy with cold weather because that's what happens when the cooler temps disappear...Winter.  I'm not a fan.This is an older photo but it feels like Fall.  Hope you all are doing alright today.  It's kind of slow here at the shop so I have time to sneak in a post.
Just wanted to mark the change of seasons...Later guys......

I'm Liking Red...


 Yes, I think the reds really helped with all of the brown...It was just too much brown!  I don't know why the manufactures do this to some of the lines of motor homes but...they do.  And in case you're thinking, "Geeez!  There's no room in that thing!",  There are two slides...one is in the living room and the other is in the bedroom.  It works for us. 
Just because I like red...
 Here's my honey with a very well mannered little guy named Baron...He owns two humans named Tom and Bev, our friends in San Antonio.
 We traveled through Fredericksberg, Texas on the way to visit our friends and I shot these blooms on a sidewalk after lunch on our way to buy vanilla (the super stuff) at this quaint old former hospital turned into a kitchen shop.  Anyone old enough to remember hospitals like this?

We had a pretty uneventful weekend.  Just traveled south to visit our buddies and hang out.  Got back Sunday and enjoyed doing a load of laundry...yep, it was that much fun.  
We are still trying to get the coach ready for a small trip to New Mexico next month.  We still have to get the hitch on the toad (car we are pulling) and finish with things we need inside.
I have a feeling it's going to be a busy month.  
Hope you all are doing well...Will be hopping over to check!

Well, We Did It...


It's a 2016 Forest River FR3 30DS Motor home....We're going to try traveling again.  Several years ago we sold our Mobil Scout 5th Wheel simply because we rarely got the chance to use it.  There's not much these days holding us back...we still have a plumbing company to run and my Granddaughter, Samantha. will still be living here after Crystal, Will and Tim move to Magnolia in November or December...This way, when we go to visit the kids in Magnolia we can stay in the RV park close by their house.  Or maybe there will be a chili cook off somewhere we want to go see...or whatever.  Also planning a trip to Angel Fire, New Mexico to visit with friends then off to Carlsbad Caverns then home.  It's got a good floor plan, enough for Hubby and I.  Sleeps eight...big shower...I think it'll work.  Anyway, it's very...brown, as you can see.  That's the way they are dressing them up these days...browns.  SO, I've started accenting things in red.  I'll shoot some pictures after I'm done.  Oh, and see the FR3 lettering under the TV that sits over the sink?  There's a light switch just for it!  Flip the switch and it lights up blue...that's all it does...Hahaaa...omg...  It's been a busy month...hiring for Crystal's position...buying the coach...working...living.
Hope you all are well...coming to check on you!
