Quote from: hatletwavery, are you going to have a new trailer by the 15th?
That's a GOOOOOD question.

If you guys would get busy and help us find a Trailmanor 2720, we will make it. If not........we may have to borrow a tent :tent: . The only tent that we have, we'd have to sleep standing up. :D

Looks like we will be going to Leo Carillo afterall.

Does anyone want to take a ride with me to Richland Washington to pick up a Trailmanor (sight unseen)...... :yikes:

Please tell me that I'm not crazy.... :eyecrazy:

We are heading out Friday after Carolyn gets off work and we have to be back by Sunday night. Doesn't leave a lot of time for camping... :p

My back is still pretty iffy. I will be spending a lot of time laying down in the back of the truck. We are hoping that Carolyn can get Monday off so that we don't have to bonsai back.

Good luck wayne, thats a long drive to the tri-cities from here, Toni and I go there every year to FIL but we usually take about 3 days up. We did it several X's straight thru when we where younger.Now we stay 1 nite in sacto at BIL then 1 nite just north of klamath as we go up the 97.

We'll stop for potti breaks (maybe :p ) & gas. We're bringing all our food & drinks. Carolyn couldn't get Monday off  :%

Carolyn will be nick named, "Truck'n Momma" after this trip.


BTW...........it's all Dieter's fault. We were going to wait until this winter to buy..........That's OK though. Maybe a better one will come along this winter and we can sell this one. :sombraro:

We just got home. What a trip.............2200 miles in 48 hours.... :eyecrazy:

The camper wasn't quite "as advertised" but we brought it home and we will deal with it.

As we were preparing it to tow off, the guy kept saying, "Oh ya, you gotta put a bungee cord....and a bungee cord there.....the one thing that he forgot to tell us to bungee cord was the steps. :mad:  They are in the road somewhere between Richland Washington and Bakersfield.

We should be there about the same time as you.

Recumbentman lives right around the corner from there. Hopefully, they will get there 1st and "Spread out" a little.

Brad, I'll send you my reservation, Maybe they will let you check in for us. They've done it before. It just depends on who's minding the gate. :sombraro:  Let Mary handle it.....she's a lot prettier than you... :p

3 family pot lucks can be great. We could all bring our own main dish and share side dishes.

We'll do our traditional DO veggies. They're always a hit... :sombraro:
