Musical RV's

It was quite a day!  Mary and Nolan sold their trailer to Sharon and Bill.  Mary and Nolan will not be back as Nolan has Alzheimer's.  They have been coming down for many, many years....but no more.  Sharon and Bill have also been down for 15+ years.  So Sharon and Bill bought Nolan's and Mary's trailer.  It is very nice; with two big slide-outs.  Sharon and Bill sold their trailer to an RV dealer.  Sharon has done a lot of planting at her site over the years and her and Bill had a cover made for their RV, so wanted the same site.   Apparently all had been measured.

Amy and Charlie, who drove down in their very nice motor home, decided to buy a trailer and just leave it down all year and drive their car down next winter. Stay with me.....

Steve, who is a truck driver, and only 50 something, was asked to do the driving for the musical RV's.
Mary and Nolan moved into Amy and Charlie's RV for the next month.  Steve drove Bill and Sharon's old RV out of their site and onto a different site.  When he went to move Bill and Sharon's new RV, it would not fit.  Measurements were incorrect and the overhead air conditioner was too high.


 Of course, most of the park was out to help with the moving.  What was to be done!

There were many suggestions.  Some suggested a backhoe come in and lower the ground so the RV would fit under its cover.  Others suggested that the roof of the cover be raised.  Bill and Sharon decided to have the roof raised.  It will cost them about $500 to do that.  For the time being they parked in the next site.  A construction crew will be out tomorrow to raise the roof.

Sharon was very disappointed that it will be a day or two before they can move into their old site, but what can be done?  Patience.  In the meantime we all helped to move everyone's personal belongings from one trailer to the next.

The people in this park help one another.  I love this park.  I was very impressed with Steve.  He moved those RV's with just inches to spare!  Wow!

There are many deals to be had here.  The above trailer cost less than $10,000.  It was very well cared for, has two 30 inch slide-outs, and has a beautiful interior.  In time the dust will settle and all will be happy. 

Also, the RV repairman came out and repaired my furnace.  Heat when we need it!  How good is that!
