COUPLE MORE PIC’S OF NEW RIG

2012-10-07_11-05-09_825Well I  am so excited that I have a hard time figuring out what to do next. If I am coming  or going ! Did go yesterday and get Ins. started. They called me yesterday about a pickup date. So it will be a week from this Friday Oct. 19th. I will have my RV crash course school that day also. Was thinking about asking dad if he wanted to go with  me, four eyes and ears are better than two. Especially when two of them are so excited that things will be missed and will not be remembered later. He could rest in the rig when he gets tired. This pic was take with the dinette slide in, and look at how much room  is still there.
2012-10-07_11-04-18_740And look who already is at home!! When my tech Cas called yesterday he said if I had any questions just to call him. Well I called him this morning after being awake most of last night thinking lol But all the things that I ask about were already in the process of getting the rig ready for delivery. It sure sounds like from what the sales peeps told me and what the tech said they really go over their rigs with a fine tooth comb, to make sure they are road worthy before they send them out. They also do a complete job of detailing inside and out. The only thing they don’t do is wax the outside, even tho I mentioned it I couldn’t get that done lol. The it has a back be with windows all around what you see is the back window. There is only one slide and that is the dinette. It has a back up camera also. I tried it out when I test drove it, I tried to back it in between the white lines in a parking space at the Mall and did it perfect! But then again I am use to backing up a full size van over the years, so it worked good for me. For some reason I thought it was 25ft but it is 29ft. 25 would have been better for me but I can work with 29 Winking smile I will have more to tell ya soon.
Thanks for looking and come back soon

THINGS AT THE PARK & ROBINS

LOOKING FOR GATORS!
LOOKING FOR MANATEE

LOOKING FOR FISH WEATHER: Mostly in the high sixty area, sunny and wind. Should be 80 on Fri.
Here are a few things we were looking at in the park yesterday. I wonder where the gator's are?
I would like to see a few. The other sign is for the manatee's this area is usually full of them, the come to the warm water to feed. But after the freezing weather in Fl they went up in the canals for the warm water, the wild life people were glad, as they could then count them, last I heard the had counted over 5,000 ! Pretty neat I thought, and they had pic's in the paper of them in the canals.
The other pic is of a guy (he must be close by) he brings his boat via a lawn mower.
The other day dad said the robins will be here soon, I didn't ask questions just thought it was just some birds. Well on Mon. morning there were hundreds and hundreds of robins around here.
Flying and cheeping away. All day and evening they were here, then yesterday they were all gone, guess this is a stop over on their way north, was very interesting to see, knowing where they were headed. I never in countered a migration like that before.
Don't know what tomorrow will bring stay tuned and find out.

GEOCACHE & OUR DAY

GEOCACHE ON BRIDGE
GEOCACH BALARD PARK Me n Maggie up at 7am , oats for breakfast, I am back on oats, grandpa had to go to doc this morning so mags and I went on our walk to Ballard Park near his home. About 1/2 mi. We went looking for the geocache hid there. Took Mrs. Garmin-Geea (GPS) but really didn't need her after looking at the google map. Found it in short order signed the log no room for any of my TB's. See the no trespassing sign in the geocache pic, It is the only sign on that strip behind the tree line, I think cachers might of went a little to far past the tree looking, it's the only sign in the area. It looks out of place being all alone out there. Like a magnet to the cache.
The bridge you see in the first pic is a bridge that crosses the Indian River, to a strip of land called beach side, because on the other side of land strip is the Atlantic ocean. I am looking at the bridge from Ballard Park, and on the bridge are a few caches. You can walk across as well as drive, I will not be looking for the caches on the bridge itself, only on the area leading up to the bridge, where they have boat launches and fishing areas. I do not like high places! Grandpa worked on some yard stuff, and I continue to price items for his yard sale. After dinner Maggie and I went for Choc-peanut butter ice cream. Grandpa got TV in my room turned on today, good idea since all he watches is sports! Tonite blogging and playing a new game I found on the internet Bejeweled, lot of mindless fun. All for now>
