Monday Funday

Monday we saw the replacement of the floor in the main slide, driver side. We were not allowed in the coach or right by it while they had the crane in use so we just watched. DSC00076

What was scary was them laying it on it’s side.

 

Then it’s strange seeing the inside openly.DSC00058

They have the new floor on, replaced all the weather stripping rubber seals, new rollers on the floor, had the seam on the carpet touched up, etc etc.  It took 4 hours, they do 2 of these a day! WHEW.DSC00074

 

Weather here has still been cold, but we didn’t get any snow like they originally predicted and changed. The freezing rain yesterday was mostly just rain. But as the temps dropped, things froze up. I was glad when our home was completed and we could hunker down inside of it. We even brought a couple slides in to keep the outside area getting cold to a minimum. That way the coach stayed heated better during the night, even though we like it cooler anyway.

I have to share that we did enjoy sunday evening in our coach with some new friends Don & Joann. They shared some wine, we talked through what should have been dinner, and then didn’t get our slide cabinets emptied out and packed. I need to note that we usually don’t drink wine, and I had already had a couple beers a little earlier which is usually all I have.  They had 2 different wines, one was Pinot Grigio (hers) and the other was Moscato (his). I really like his and had a few small glasses, maybe a glass or 2 too many. Once they left we decided we both needed something to eat, and I suggested greasy to absorb some alcohol! Rob cooked a plate of nacho’s and then he had a sandwich, I finished the last couple bites on him. Went straight to bed, wasn’t good for too much else!

This had us getting up early and getting stuff packed and out of the way. Good thing it only took us about an hour. Why then did it take me a couple hours to unpack and put it all away?!?!  Maybe the mid afternoon nap got in the way, or that only one of us put stuff away. Hmmm

 I will say that Sadie has been really good with most all of this.DSC00059 Her belly and legs were getting pretty dirt filled, and the rain washed some of that underside off so she doesn’t feel so dirty. Here she is laying on the cold cement floor inside the building, patiently waiting for her daddy to stop talking, again! I think she wanted another walk, potty break and to get out of the noise.

One thought on “Monday Funday”

  1. I am so jazzed for you guys! Glad to see that you got on the road and that it seems to be working out. So envious. I see you have continued with the RVIC. I still continue to get the cold shoulder from them. No return emails from anyone. They send me info and inquiries but nothing back on my comments.
    Did you buy a NEW Bus? We are still plugging away here. Doing some construction work and we found an RV based business that is providing some decent work, as we learn the ins & outs of their work.
    How is Rob’s health since the procedure last year and without all the life stress? We are still doing our best with our son, making changes in our bounderies that will keep the relationship healthy for all, hopefully.
    Keep us in the loop of your experiences. We spent 2 weeks in Quartzsite this year, our first time and it sure wet our appetite for more of that life.
