Join us as we travel North America in our Holiday Rambler Vacationer, 
 since August 2006

      Well after three days of walking the vendors we decided to take a day of not shopping, just hang out. So after morning coffees and computing I drove the car to the Roadmaster service Truck at 8:00 am when they opened their tent. I want to get this done before the huge line ups of bumper to bumper traffic begin from about 8:30 until 1:00pm. I had dropped our Roadmaster Tow bar off monday afternoon for them to check out. And its now all cleaned and lubricated, tightened up, inspected and a few new bushings installed (all free I might add), a nice service that they provide for their customers.

       Now back home before the traffic gets too heavy and reinstall the our tow bar with the bicycle rack on our coach. So now we should be good for another few years, as long as I keep it maintained.

      Ok with this chore completed, more coffee, then Suzie and I discuss our possible itinerary (with our maps and calendars open) for the next  2 and 1/2 months as we begin a homeward bound journey, she will attempt to confirm some reservations in our membership parks so that we have free or almost free camping on the road.

      With this done we got out the blind and tried to figure where to install it. We had purchased this on monday for a good price, but there was just no way that we could install it to be effective and look good, so I hopped on my bike and made my way back thru the crowds and returned it for a refund.
still good crowds
      Ok now chat with some neighbours, and sit in  the shade with our books for a bit, puttering about here and there. Then a few vendors about the desert here on their ATV's advertising their products (Direct TV) with a huge flag and answering questions.

      There is quite a few rv's leaving the area and a small number arriving now, so there is a bit more space in our area and shuffling for different spots.

      But with supper time approaching I fired up the barbie, and put on a cornish hen and a nice rice pilaf with cauliflower, carrots, peas and celery for supper.
tasty
      Then across the desert  a nice sunset with some RV's and mountains in the scene.
