WE BOUGHT A NEW (TO US) 5TH WHEEL

Our little 25' Laredo was getting on Norm's nerves. He was feeling claustrophobic. We had planned to take this small RV on our Summer 2012 Alaska trip then sell it and buy a bigger RV. Norm decided just to "look" (wink, wink) to see what else was out there now. So, of course, he found a good deal on a newer, nicer RV. It's a 2009 34' Durango and she's a beauty, more of a luxury 5th wheel. It was for sale by owner up in Gainesville, TX. That's a 4+ hour drive for us. So two weeks ago we headed up to Gainesville on Saturday, bought it and spent the night in the new RV in the previous owners driveway. Then hitched up & headed home on Sunday. Norm spent several days moving our stuff over to the new RV which was parked right next to our old one in the RV park. We really like the new rv and there is a lot more room. The very next weekend we hitched up the small rv and took it up to our property in Waco. Now when we're up there we have a place to stay...nice. We'll still take the small rv to Alaska and hopefully sell it there before we head back home.

Over Thanksgiving week we stayed in Waco 3 days while we put a couple coats of paint on the new storage shed. We really enjoy our place up there...nice quiet country setting. One of our neighbors, Darrell came over to introduce himself. Very nice guy. We spent Thanksgiving at Bonnie's and had a real nice time. Danny fries the best turkey...yum..

Because we spent the night we had plenty of play time with the gkids. That Madison & Holden are so much fun. Cole also spent the night and it was good to see him to. We don't get to see him much so were glad he was off work and could spent time with the family.
