Making a good appearance



I'm amazed at how many folks, especially neighbors, have asked me, "Where's the coach? We saw you had some trouble coming north with it but we want to see it!"  My answer is pretty much the same for all.
-Quo's  in the body shop, then to McGrath's Auto, Truck & RV Garage for a new set of LED light bulbs throughout and an electric fireplace wall mount heater in the living room, etc.
-She doesn't want to be seen without her new 'coat' of paint in this cold weather.
-Soon! Soon!

And now we know that State Farm has approved all the body repairs on the coach (see top pic- basement doors and the radiator grill) so perhaps even by the end of this week Paul at D & D Collision will have her all done (see the next pic for how she WILL look!) and ready to head over to John & Kim's for the inside work.

I've had some helpful advice from many good friends since having this, and the TOAD, accident.
-Take a CDL license course.
-Just don't hit anything.
-Drive safely and stay out of my drive!
Thank you all for them!

And along with the advice we've gotten some other cool stuff.
-Prayers
-Some great driving tips from RV and Trucker pros
-More prayers... mostly for Mona, for some reason.

Today Audrey Dunekack, who upgraded our garage 30 amp exterior RV electric hookup to 50 amp while we were down south asked me when the coach would be here and hooked up.  I had to tell her it will be a couple of weeks yet. But I could tell her it won't be long.  Then anyone who wants a peek can come on over to 100 Holly Drive, Douglassville, for a look.  At least until we move into her and leave the house for good.

She'll be at the house on the corner hiding behind the RV.

PS:  The house lists with Brian Kelly Realtors, Gilbertsville, February 1st.  And the auctioneer, Cathy Pennypacker, comes to value the house contents for sale on the 4th.  But Mona is hoping we have till April at least to move.  Have I mentioned that she likes winter camping less than she likes winter?
