Wow, I just went to have a look at the blog and noticed that it's been forever since I posted. Guess what....... We got a new rig. Yes, a funny thing happened. I was reading the Good Sam Club magazine, Highway Herald, and noticed an ad for a brand new Winnebago for an amazingly cheap price and a 26 footer seemed like it just had to be looked at. We checked the local dealer, Jack Sisemore Traveland, in Amarillo, TX and sure enough they had one. We went to look at it and quickly decided it wasn't configured right for us, but in the meantime we looked at the Vista 30T a thirty foot version and fell in love. After counting pennies and gathering our resources, we bought it. This one too was discounted significantly and it seemed the perfect time to go for it. Our other rig was just getting a little too old and we figured it was the perfect time to trade.
Here we are parked in Brownwood, Texas where we expect to remain until May 2013.
We've been in the rig for a month now almost and we're just loving it. I've been researching and buying materials to get the solar up and running in this rig and hopefully we'll be going by Christmas. Well that's enough for now. I'll review previous postings and get to writing some more blog entries.
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.
