Red Bay, Alabama

From November 1st:     We are in Red Bay, Alabama getting some warranty work done on the coach at the Tiffin Repair Facility.  Mr. Tiffin has sold so many coaches in the last few years that this place is packed.  They do such good work that everyone comes here to get things repaired or to add things on their coaches.

Imagine, if you will, a big, busy Walmart parking lot, but with 40 and 45 foot motorhomes coming and going all day long.  Early in the morning they will call your cell phone and say "Can you come to bay #49?"  Well, you disconnect, pull the slides in and rush to get over to the bays.  You and about 20 other motorhomes at the same time.

It's an adventure that's for sure.  We feel very lucky that we don't have any big issues with the coach, just a few annoying things that needed to be fixed here.  We were able to get them done in the "Express Bay".  This is for small issues that can be done in 3 hours or less.  If you have more serious problems that will take more time, then you have to be put on a waiting list.  That list is 6 weeks out now at this point. 

We are not sure where we are headed, but it looks like Florida for a quick visit.

We are free from any obligation anywhere and we will be happy to be able to go wherever we want.
The plan for now is to head out west after the new year.  We plan on staying in the west for a year or two before coming back east.  We hope to slow down a little and take more time visiting and experiencing the local areas wherever we are.

We are waiting for one small piece of wood work and we should be out of here today, headed south.

Stay warm.
