Still in the 'burg


We're about halfway through our stay.  Most doc appointments are over.  Donna still got a lot of visiting to do, and I've got one more doc appointment next week.  We seem to be doing fine - at least the docs say so.  We do get out. We tend to walk the paved trails from Old Mill Park or along Lee Drive in the battlefield. 

Plans are to go back to Indiana and pick up the trailer the week of Nov 4th.  Next planned reservation is Nov 14th at Stone Mtn, GA.  That's the plan, anyway!

Thanks for dropping by and checking up on us.  We'll check in when we get back to Indiana.  David

Made it to Fredericksburg


Hey, we made it!  How unusual is that?

We had a nice trip down after leaving the trailer at Indiana Interstate Enterprises on Monday.  Took two days to drive down stopping for an overnight near Cranberry Township, PA.  We've already gotten groceries and Donna a rental car.  She's already out visiting with friends.

Doc appointments start next week.  Other than that, we're just hanging out.  Until next week, David

Still in Elkhart

Dilbert Oct 02, 2019


Yep, we're still here.  Hydraulics repaired.  We broke two lines (actually pinched two lines) Tuesday last week (Sept 24th) on the way in.  Total RV got us in on Tuesday (this week), got the parts Tuesday afternoon, and finished Wednesday afternoon.  (Obviously, we have high praise for them and their efforts on the trailer!)  They pointed out another plumbing leak for us to have repaired while it's at Indiana Interstate Enterprises (a.k.a. Cross RV).  Just due to the numerous preventative maintenance items that need to be accomplished and items that need to be repaired, we've decided to leave the trailer in Lagrange, IN for repairs (third year in a row - first time it's not planned, though).  We'll travel on to Fredericksburg, VA for doc appointments next week.  Should reach Fredericksburg on the 9th.  As we won't have the trailer with us, much more likely to make that date (see cartoon, above).

So that's the plan.  Tune in next week to see if we made it.  David

P.S. As disappointing as this is, we're probably extremely lucky.  I follow several people, businesses,  and owner's groups on Facebook that have various RVs & trailers.  Two of those families have totaled their 5th wheel trailers in accidents this week.
