Joe,

Now that you are traveling again, any chance to make time in your busy
travel schdule to attend some of the Lone Star Birds events? Marabito
is hosting the next one in April at Buckhorn Ranch in Kerrville. Hope
to see you there.

Same ISP, same sender, but some things make it through and some don't.

1990 40' Wanderlodge which I had them build special for me. It was
wonderful but I got real sick and we didn't know if I would live, much
less be able to travel in an RV. So we sold it. But this last summer
we took a car trip from San Antonio to Montana, then to Wyoming, then
Bakersfield, CA, then Portland, then the Olympic Peninsula, then back
to Missoula, then to Rocky Mountain National Park, and finally back to
San Antonio. We found ourselves looking longingly at RV parks the
whole way wondering if they had 50 amp service, WI-FI and which sites
would get clear satellite reception.

current coach from Bleakley. We had it loaded. We have dual DirectTV
satellite, Directv internet, a washer/dryer, a couple of slides and
all the other bells and whistles available. Oh, and a Select Comfort
bed. There are a few problems. We got a Brake Buddy. Maybe not that
brand, I forget, but we've never been able to make the damned thing
work. Also we have a LOT less counter space than we had in the old
RV. I can't see any way to increase it but I want to get someone with
a good imagination to look at it. I thought the extra 3 feet would
help but that gave us a full toilet and vanity where before we just
had a toilet stall, and an extra cabinet across from it. And that's
it. So when we get back from the World Figure Skating Championships
in Calgary in late March (flying) we are heading east to Georgia to
see what can be done. Then it's west and north and eventually to
Alaska this summer. And Joy has a hankerin' to go to Inuvic, 470
miles north of Dawson City on a dirt road. But they have a motel with
high speed internet there!

do much work at all on our own coach but not all the conversation here
is how to do things.
