You Want to Stick What Where????

After being parked on the street for about a week, we found it necessary to try to park our motorcoach on the existing gravel driveway as a temporary fix until such time as we could have the upgraded work done on the gravel. We really did not want to take advantage of our neighbors any longer and felt this was a means to an end for the time being.
In order to do this, we had one of our friends sit on top of the coach in order to lift up the telephone wires since they hanging lower than we would have wanted. We had another friend watching for any bottoming out which was a major concern due to the pitch of the driveway. Lee was backing her in as carefully as he could. We all held our breath and were relieved when our new motorcoach was sitting in its new home at least temporarily.
We would not be physically moving our coach until we scheduled some warranty work at the local dealership. Our original thoughts were that we were going to be able to live in our coach during our household renovations. All our bathrooms were ripped out. It would have been an easy fix to live in the coach. Now that we were unable to make any "dumps", we had no choice but live in a hotel for a few weeks.
With our son's upcoming graduation, warranty issues to be addressed, day to day monitoring of renovation progress, upgrading our driveway situation, and the general day to day "stuff", we had alot on our plate.
It was time to think about Florida and our Life in the Slow Lane!!!!

Who Says Five Feet Doesn't Make A Big Difference!

Well it took us three days to come back to Maine. We knew we were going to have a parking challenge with our new motorcoach when we got home. We were never planning on purchasing such a large coach considering our old coach was 35 feet. If anything, we were planning on no more than 40 feet. Would the extra five feet really make a difference.
YES IT DID!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We were afraid to park it on our gravel driveway used for our old coach. We were concerned that we would bottom out as well as sink down due the the extra weight.
So...... we parked her in the road in front of our home. Thank goodness we had wonderful neighbors. Thank goodness the school bus and other trucks could pass along side of us. We knew that we had to have the gravel driveway redone and do some other things to make parking our coach as easy as our old one.
Oh, by the way, did I happen to mention that we began renovating our home the day after we returned. Besides that, our older son was graduating college at the end of the month and I was planning a party. Phew!!!!
Could everything be accomplished without losing our minds????????????????????
