What A Busy Day!!

Georgetown, Texas

Weather: low 37 degrees, high 72 degrees, mostly clear skies, windy (agai

We did some more comparing of RVs this morning when we got up. After my morning walk, we went back to the RV dealership we have been talking to the last few days. We had questions about the pictures and invoices they had sent us over the Internet. Some of the information we have been getting did not seem to make a lot of sense to us. Talking to the salesman about it, he said maybe the wrong pictures had been sent with the wrong invoices. Well, that might cause some confusion. At least for old folks like us.

The salesman called his contact at the other store, located in another city. The confusion was quickly cleared up when the contact looked at what he had sent. Sure enough, everything was mixed up. In a short time, we had everything sorted out. Now, it made more sense to us, and we were able to make an informed decision as to which RV we liked best. As a result, another RV will be shipped to here from another store. If we like the new RV and everything is as advertised, we will be buying it. That means we have a lot to do to get ready for the swap out of our stuff into another RV, if the sale goes through. The major thing is that we will have to go to Bay City to our bank and get the title for our current home out of our safe deposit box.

With the possibility of getting a new RV, we talked to the park hosts where we are staying about swapping everything from the old RV into the new RV here at the park. The hosts gave us permission, and even made some suggestions on how to accomplish the swap out with a minimum of fuss.

Once we got back to the RV, I went to the WalMart Mall and had the truck serviced. I was surprised that they were able to get me in and finished in about 45 minutes in the middle of the day. I was ready to wait for at least two hours. By the way, I was able to find the Mall without any problems today. It was quite easy the second time around.

With servicing the truck out of the way, it was time to take the RV to the dump and empty our holding tanks. That took about an hour, with unhooking everything, pulling the RV to the dump and dumping the tanks, pulling back to the campsite, and hooking everything back up. Whew, it's been a busy day. I'm ready for some down time.

More later, be safe.
