Made it to Washington

We made it to Gig Harbor! However, we had a little accident along the way. We were in California needing to stop for gas, and had to get into a station that we thought we could get in and out of okay. We thought wrong.

The back of the 5th wheel hit a concrete barrier and the corner got a little messed up. However, that is why we have insurance. So we will be displaced for a little while until it can fixed. The repair place unfortunately is backed up for a few weeks, so we get just enough time to settle in for while, before packing up our house and taking it to the shop.

I start work next week, am very excited. As for the trip, we made it to all the national parks listed except for Mt. St. Helens, it was fogged in again. We did get a bonus park, Mono Lake!

Surprise morning

I came home from work this morning and saw a horse on the door. The boy bought us a new window for the fifth wheel and surprised me with it on my birthday.

As you can see the kids were very excited!

He also made this for me! How amazing he is! Seriously!

Interior of 5th wheel

While looking at pattern choices for the 5th wheel, we both decided that the midnight was by far the best choice that suited us and our lifestyles. We chose the bigger fridge, and that is a king size bed! There are two leather recliners, two HD tv's. I am still learning it's secrets, kinks, and it's personality. We have yet to actually try out any part of the kitchen, or bed. We watched a movie on the larger tv, I fell asleep half way through it. :)

Our new home

In October, we put down the initial payment on a brand new 2009 Landmark Augusta 5th wheel. When Alan and his dad went to get the 5th wheel, they learned that we were actually getting a 2010 Landmark Augusta. Apparently between the time we put down the down payment and the time they went to get it, there had been enough changes for them to label it a 2010. They had been making them about 2 weeks before we picked up ours. Our new home is here and it is beautiful. Inside pictures to come soon!
