Labor day and New Motor Home

Thur.  We finalized signing insurance papers electronically.  We then went thru the stuff in the truck the only thing left with it is to change the code to get into the truck.  We went to a glass place to see if the glass on our table can be used in the new rig.  I had to get my med perscription. and we picked up ZZ on the way to Sha’s.  We did his homework while Linda cooked dinner.  ZZ did help Linda put the biscuits on the shepards pie. After we ate all three kids ball practice got cancelled so we played cards.  On the way home we went to Aldi’s and Walmart for gas.  Not bad 30.2 miles per gal.  It will be nice if the motorhome gets that.  

Fri. Another Yea YEA day we got the papers from our mail service.!!!  Everything is now in place for the closing of the motorhome on Tues. What a relaxing morning, we went for a walk around the park and talked to some folks about there gas motorhome.  We feel we have a good outlook on what to look for in our walk through.  After dinner we had a fire in the fire pit and by six showered and ready for bed.  We both have sleep to catch up on.  

Sat. Shannon and the kids came over for what Linda called a hodge bodge lunch.  We are trying to use all the items we have in the house so when we get the new rig we start putting in new stuff.  I played ball with the kids before we went to the beach area to go swimming.  Linda and Shannon went to have coffee and get our pass for the base.  When the kids and I came home we played cards.  Al and Shannon took us out to dinner to Brazilian Steakhouse for mother/father days and ann.

Sun.  Al drove us to Asheville NC. where we met Al and Heather(Sandy’s daughter). On the way we stopped at Hendersonville to pick apples and peaches. 

When we got there we ate then walked around town for they were having a weekend festival. We of course went to the French Broad Chocolate place and got our chocolate fix. 

  We drove to Al and Heathers’s where the kids helped Al feed the goats and we had a wonderful steak dinner.  The two of them were wonderful host because they did not know we were coming to there home for dinner.  It was a great unplanned day. 

Mon. Labor day we did our laundry.  We met Shannon and the kids at the movie theater and watched War Room.  What a wonderful christian movie all of us would recommend it.  When we got home we got things ready for our move on Tues.

Tues. Things went well this morning as we got up early made coffee and did our bible study we headed for Spartanburg.  After arriving at Camping world, they took our 5th wheel to process it.  We then talked to the financing to make sure all the figures were right and we had extended warranty.  They gave us a walk thru on the new motorhome(we thought we learned everything he taught us but the first time we had a problem we could not remember what he said). Then it was back to the finance dept to finish the paper work.  Just before noon we were all done and started to move things from the 5th wheel to the motorhome. We were told we would have a hook up for both rigs.  There was none for the 5th wheel and we ran the generator in the motorhome till it ran out of fuel.  We were both very hot for it was in the low nineties.  Later in the afternoon the sales person came and filled our tank and had the rigs moved so both  could be on 30 amp.  WE worked till 11 before we showered and got the bed moved from the 5th wheel to the motorhome. We got to bed by 12 but could not sleep.  Linda was up several times doing little things.


Wed.  We got the rest of the things out of the 5th wheel and had the service dept. do little things that were wrong.  We drove back to Fort Jackson and got settled in.  Linda worked on the things that had not been put away.  We were both very tired and so much more to do as we are fining out this rig is much smaller for storage.
