We Bought It!!

Georgetown, Texas

Weather: low 65 degrees, high 83 degrees, cloudy early, then clear skies, windy

Yesterday, we received a call from the RV dealership we have been talking to. They let us know that the RV we were interested in had been delivered. We went and checked it out this morning, and decided to go ahead and make the deal for the new RV. That's a big deal for us. We've been looking for another RV for at least a couple of years, and didn't find anything that grabbed us. The one we looked at today did the trick. Now, if we are as happy with the new RV as we think we will be, everything will be great.

While we were looking at the new RV, we had a pad of paper and pen to make notes of items we wanted to be corrected or repaired. After about an hour, we only found - get this - four items. We expected to find more than four, and were pleasantly surprised at the quality and finish of the RV. We thought our experience as RVers, plus our pickiness, would aid us in finding several more items. As a backup to our inspection, the dealership is going to test all the systems for a few days, as well as do a good cleaning of the unit before we pick it up. They understand that we are full-time RVers, which means we may not be back in this area for a year, if then. If we have warranty problems, there are numerous dealers across the country we can visit, but we are hopeful that any problems will show up before we leave here. We'll stay here for a week or so after picking up our new home. Hopefully, any problems will show up then. By the way, the new RV is a Heartland Big Horn.

Today was a full day, and we did not get home until almost 1600 hours. I was so tired I immediately did some meditation, while Carolyn took a short nap. As I have said before, I don't sleep during the day, while Carolyn will take an occasional nap. Like almost every day. I do admit to meditating almost every day.

It looks like we will be moving tomorrow from the campground where we are now to another one. We're limited to 14 days at the COE campgrounds, and with us waiting for the new RV, we will be running out of time at our present campground. Moving tomorrow will reset the clock to give us another 14 days. We want to try another COE park located on Granger Lake, near Taylor. So, tomorrow's post will be reported from near Taylor, Texas.

More later, be safe.
