A BLUEBIRD BED TIME STORY - Leroy Eckert - 04-24-2007 10:39 I just arrived from working on the bus. Welcome to the forum. You will enjoy the Bird and you will get greasy. I am right now. lol . Sometimes I say off the wall things but it is not meant to hurt anyone, just my personality. So far I am good. Do not let it bother you.

It still amazes me at my age to read inane and completely unfounded retorts from people that think from the opposite side of there body. As I said in my little story, I am just thrilled that I have received this gift. If there was a thought of selling then it would have been sold long before this. I enjoy and exercise my right to embellish a little when involved in a living story like this ownership in a new realm. I did hope that this site would offer me new friends and advice on putting this Bluebird back to its previous glory. So far not one "enjoy your new found RV" "welcome to the group" or what ever. I guess my mistake was looking at this group thru 70 year old eyes. Did I do the wrong thing writing this little story? Am I an outcast because it was a gift not an outright purchase? I was only trying to share my excitement and the discovery of a new experience, Bluebird ownership. My best friend is just that a best friend and once I realized he really wanted me to have the Bird I excepted it with joy and excitement. My intention and attention to this Bluebird will absolutely include him. Matthew, 1979 fc35 ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

I do not see a signature of the author here. Name and town and type of coach please. As well, I haven't made any type of uncompassionate comments in this politically correct world regarding this specific subject, and do not intend to. I simply welcomed the new owner to the Forum, and I am willing to help in any way I can at anytime. I specifically advised the new member in advance that I may from time to time have different views..It is my personality. No harm intended. So far, I have made it to 63. Whether I agree or disagree with the original post that generated your response to my post is not important and the answer will never be known to anyone but myself. I did not write the original response that started the hubbub so have a cocktail and pick on someone else. I am very happy for Matthew and hope he enjoys his coach as much as I have mine.
