Price of a Bluebird

[JK]

Hi Roger- I'll agree with that-We just happened to find our "Babe
The Blue Ox" at a time in our lives when we were ready to try an
alternative lifestyle (living in a motorhome) and she fit
perfectly. Spent three years sitting in a rent house driveway
getting rid of extraneous stuff and upgrading the bird to fit our
needs. In 2002, we took off and haven't looked back. It's amazing
how much fun it is to have a bird when you LIVE in it without a
stick house to worry about. Birds were built to be used and used
extensively-not like so many of the other RV's you see. That
explains the price and upkeep. She's a classic and we're very proud
to keep her in great shape-but it is a constant job-one we enjoy
very much. I guess it's like painting a stick house or mowing the
yard-it's just expected.
