About Me

Lee Creek, North Shuswap near Chase, B.C, Canada
We went full-time Rving in October of 2005! We retired from full time to part-time as of the end of 2015. Our present "small but comfortable" Wagon is a 2008 Camper trailer(TravelAir Rustler), pulled by a 2008 Dodge Dakota, 4X4.l. Our home is now a Gated Community Park, in Oliver, British-Columbia, Canada. I retired in 2005 and my Life Companion, Valerie, retired October 1, 2006 from nursing. We invite you to follow and share our new adventures and mishaps. Life is but an adventure full of dreams yet to be fulfilled!

May 5th 2006

OF ALL ROTTEN LUCK!!!!! Found out on Monday that the tranny needs replacing. The rear and first gear kept slipping and at first, I thought it was the transfer case but, upon having it inspected, found that there was a leak by the on-line filter and the oil got low and burned over time so....it means a new transmission.
Went to a couple places and ended up at L&D Transmission in Chilliwack. They came recommended by a few places such as Green Acres Repair, my son-in-law, and O'Connor RV. So with all this, I feel pretty confident that we are in good hands. We have an appointment on Monday and Trevor at L&D tells me the truck will be ready by the next day. Cost wise, he assures me it will not go over $4000.

Anyway, we are at my daughter's place to do another laundry. The Medallion is at O'Connor getting some minor repairs done and should be ready by tonight. Then it's back to Camperland to set up once again and then come back here at Rochelle and the grand-kids.

See you all later
