That day we took it to St. Augustine Beach when we drove out on beach everyone at the little bar at entrance to where you get on beach were staring at us thinking of no they will get stuck, but when we came back off beach later they screamed alright and gave us a standing ovation. It was dually...

Ordered a set of rear view mirrors, for my tractor today, they will be here "tomorrow". They are magnetic, and can be placed wherever you want them.

Got Leo and Maisey bathed today. Cleaned ears and trimmed their claws. :) Getty and Foxy will be bathed next. Foxy.

Marie when we first got the bus, she loved driving it.

Sort of, the reason I had started thinking about it so much; is the pain Marie has been going through going on six months; I thought of how much she loved the bus, and how sad it makes her when she thinks about how she sold it. She said we were too old, especially to restore another from the...

OK, I did want to tell y'all a couple stories about the bus we had, I think was pretty "interesting". I'm not sure it was noticed here, but we traveled a lot in it, and everywhere we went all police, highway patrol and any law enforcement just waved like crazy at us. I wondered "why", until we...

She is, or used to do tents well, but we've got up in age now, to where it can become too much of a task, "setting" everything up. Still leaning more toward a bus, maybe. She still says we don't go anywhere enough to have a bus.

I've never put one of those up, but watched a show once of them setting one up, in Alaska or somewhere snowing and cold as all get out; they had a wood stove and carpet for the floor, they wrapped several layers of animal skins around it. They were Indians of some tribe, and then they would pack...

So true, Mary; happy wife happy life, like that one. :)

Easy to engine repairs too, looks like.

Marie was so mad, at them, she backed the bus up to their site, a revved engine, so they could see how it felt. It really wasn't any sense for them to burn tires like that. We left and came back home.

All four of our dogs, love to ride. When I pulled the van, and the truck around to wash them, the other day and opened the gate to get in the backyard, Getty would jump in each time to ride only up to the back of the house. Everyone of these dogs are like that.

You just pointed out all the reasons we quit campgrounds, Beth. Once we were at one and the people next to us were burning tires in the pit and smoke was killing us. After those kinds of experiences, we only stayed at family houses, or Walmarts, or took turns sleeping while other one drove to...

All very good points Beth; and I do value very much; your opinion, and everyone here. Sort like a rope, the more strands, the stronger the rope.Remember on the other SOC; I asked y'all about my tractor and y'all said we definitely needed on after Helene tore so much debris here, and I was not...

Sounds like us, for sure. Our dogs now are rescues and feel the same; no one left behind. We've even let dogs have their own tent while camping at the beach before. Once at Huguenot Park Jax Fl. we had a Waterspout come up, on us on the beach, and tearing at the tent to take it, and I fought...

That's what I did, before too; but like you I replant smaller amounts, and do it after each mature cycle, and have been picked to start New batch, they are fast producers. I've kind of learned to do more variety in planting and smaller amounts, because, before I would plant to much of one thing...

Good points Connie; and "thanks". She post above that van is just fine but would like a tent on the side. I'm still not sure; because we have four fairly large dogs, and like, "Yvonne", said traveling with dogs can be such a task to deal with. The bus was simple, since it had so much more room.

You touch on a lot of good advice, Yvonne. When we purchased the bus last time I didn't want one; but Marie was dead set on getting her one. We weren't looking for one just riding with her old friends, going to Helen Georgia for a getaway "trip", and she saw them on the side road business, for...

That's the thought that comes to mind with me, just think everyone's thoughts and opinions, will help in making a decision. Thanks Marie.

Have a question about your "opinions". Was wanting to see if "y'all" think that I should take on another bus for Marie; since it's the only material possession she ever owned, and "Loved"? I do realize we are up there now in age, and it took a lot to make the one she sold, she sold it because...
