I'll try to get some pics in here pretty soon. We went over for the hook up breakfast this morning, they call it that because many folks are "hooking up" (toads to their motorhomes or trailers to their trucks) to head out to other parts. We saw lots of our friends, the young (to us) family of four who are going to head out on their full-time adventure this coming spring. The musicians we met who we plan to see again and work with to create an informal BOF (Birds Of a Feather) group called "Music on the Road". This group will be for people who pick, sing and/or grin, this formation was inspired by the jam sessions while we were here.
After breakfast, I had some work to do on the rig and Janie did some tidying up and organizing for our departure tomorrow. I noticed that the awning mount had come loose so I went to the mobile RV repair shop and bought a couple of more substantial screws and repaired the mount. I then checked the other mount and noticed that it could also loosen, so I got some longer screws for that as well, put some fresh dicor sealant around it and refastened it.
It strikes us what a great group of people these Escapees are, and one of the things that we noticed is that we are all different and we're all the same. This RV group we found are all very accepting of others. It strikes me that when you live in a box, you really resist in some imaginary box.
Til next time.....

The States-On The Road: Janie Stein and Martin Bates are The States. Janie and I got our first motorhome, a 1984 Toyota Dolphin in May of 2009, we lived in it for the rest of the year. We started living full time in a Class C Jayco motor home and playing music and helping where we can as we go. We've upgraded twice, first with an up size then with a down size. We love our new little 20 mpg Winnebago Travato 59K. Come join us in our travels.
Now we live in the lovely 2016 Winnabego Travato 59K
