Full Timing Journal - October 2008

October 24, 2008 - George and Mike showed up bright and early this morning to finish the awning. They were here Tuesday and sunk the poles in concrete. 3 hours is all it took to finish it up. After they left I went to Home Depot and got two white rope lights, clamps and screws and mounted them under the lip around three sides of the awning. It's the perfect amount of light after dark. Not bright, just right.


October 18, 2008 - Not a lot going on here, just enjoying the warm Texas weather. We had a local carpenter build us a deck for the door of the motorhome. He made it so the stairs can be detached and the deck moved when we get ready to roll. Now we need to stain it. The same guy is also the one that is going to build our patio awning. The parts should be in Thursday and hopefully next weekend I'll have some shade!


October 6, 2008 - We're back on our lot at Leisure Valley Ranch. We'll be here until late April. Maybe a side trip or two to break up the monotony. We're going to have a patio awning installed as soon as I can find someone to put it up. Need some relief from the sun. It's still pretty warm in south Texas!

October 2, 2008 - We left TN this morning and headed down to Robinsonville, MS. Just a quick stop and then we'll be headed for Mission, TX
