Look, Ma - no leaks! I'm running out of synonyms for rain... it poured today. The local weather folks called it between 3 and 6 inches locally. We did our walkthrough this morning with Fernando... he looks young, but is very competent; answered all our questions without missing a beat. With all the rain, we decided to spend another night or two at the dealer... we still need to go through the hookup/setup procedure, but I think we'd all like to do it without getting drenched. I told Robert that we should be outta here by mid-October at the latest. ;-)
We made a run to Camping World and Bass Pro Shop in Springfield today. At the recommendation of folks here, we ate at Lambert's yesterday - yes, the food was good, plenty of it, and we caught rolls. Today we had lunch at Hemingway's at Bass Pro Shop (seems that most of them we visit have Islamorada Fish Company)... they had an amazing buffet: lots of entres, including chicken, roast beef, turkey, catfish, ham, pasta... and less than $9 pp. Great ambiance. An unexpected dining delight!
Back at the LS, we have gone through the downloaded checklist, run all the systems (except dumping the holding tanks)... even have most of our stuff put away. Now we are just getting accustomed to where all that stuff is. After days of running, hours of carrying, and weeks of waiting, we are trying out all the furniture, watching the crispy digital TV (oh, I still have to find a good place to put our satellite receiver and get it wired). The lights are low, the fireplace is glowing (don't need the heat right now, but I'm enjoying the look of it much more than I would have thought), and we feel like real people again.
Yeah... nice.
