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!

July 14 to 17, 2007

Well, we finally heard from FLEETWOOD. They want us to take the rig down to Oregon so that they may look at it closely. They are offering to pay all expenses so we decided to jump this loop one more time but this is definitely the last one. After this we are either going to get our money back or a new rig if they can't resolve the issue.

It's been pouring dog and cats the last two days and the forecast is for overcast for the week-end. We are still waiting for the parts to come in. Val is working full time right now so we are planning our Oregon trip for August.

Not much else to report so will say bye for now. For those interested here are the figures/weight on the 355 Quantum as it is right now: trailer with kitchen stuff such as pots and pans, food and dishes; clothes and linen and some minor items at the back, the basement emptied and we have slide toppers X 4; "Hidden Hitch" installed, electric rear supports and the washing machine ( we are told this should not total more than 500lbs) we are sitting at 14,241 and the axles at 11,508. This leaves us with 59 lbs payload before reaching our max of 14300lbs

See you next time. If anyone has any comment/suggestions, we would love to hear them
