We have had a very busy week, and it isn't nearly over yet!Glad to be out here, and I never get tired of the mountain view!
We are really enjoying the Indian Summer weather and have delayed our departure a few days.
It's great to use the grill and cook out and then sit outside til dark! We haven't been able to do that too much this summer. Between visiting with our son and family and getting our ducks in a row, we haven't had a minutes peace!
It all started in Goodland Kansas when we stopped in at McB's Motors and had the annual service work done to our coach. What would take a couple of hours turned into all day..and kept us there over one extra night. It's okay, as we met another couple that had been stranded there for a few days broke down on vacation and waiting for parts. They were from the St. Louis area, and it really helped pass the time visiting with them. We exchanged info and will keep in touch, hopefully to cross paths again. DH and the gentleman had golf in common so they went to play 9 holes at the golf club and we set off to pick up some parts at the Diesel Place in Colby! We went our seperate ways after having supper at a good restaurant downtown called "Krazy Rs." The next day we ran into rain showers on the way into Colorado Springs and it really dirtied up the coach.
It was time to polish it up anyway, so last weekend we hand polished all of Betsy's 102 feet. She really shines now! So proud of the Mr. getting up on the ladder and re-taping the corners of the slide outs. Today I had the carpets and tile steam cleaned and it look like new in here! Tomorrow a couple from here will come over and look at Betsy because they may be interested in buying her! Isn't that just the way it happens. We were not looking to sell and as soon as we get her all up to speed with new rubber and shocks someone calls! Well, everything is for sale for a price, and if it's meant to be it will be! Then we will be homeless and looking for another coach, but if not, this one is ready to go down the road for another season. My car came out of the shed today, so I will start packing it up tomorrow. We even got our flu shots today because our arms are already sore from polishing so we wouldn't feel any pain! We are waiting for the call from Denver RV Center to go pick up the new windshield drape I had made and for a package in the mail to arrive and we will take Betsy to the shed, bid the kids goodbye til the end of the month when they will trip to Nebraska and then we will head east....
