Statesville NC

Good Morning! 

I lost a post somewhere, thought i publshed it, guess not.
Today my way point is just north of Charlotte along  route 77, a very busy noisy highway.

Wednesday night I was near Cartersville Georgia, a very nice rv spot that was next to a main line 
train. Trains all night, at least 3 per hour. Crazy and not very restfull.

I am excited to be seeing my niece Cathy to day and even better she is coming with me to 
Providence. A real road trip now. 

I had my first real hard rain yesterday. It washed the coach well. 
Wednesday night my good friends and former neighbors Mike and Gary came by and picked me up for a nice dinner at a Cajun Place called Henry's. It was noisy, fun and great food in a town named Akworth. 
Here's a picture of them. They too are rv-er's ! They are visiting their son John and family, but 
heading out to Wisconsin soon. I hope to meat up with them one of these trips. 
Well take care. and more from RV Rita soon
comments appreciated!

It works........

Good Wednesday Morning from Huntsville Alabama.

I am parked with hookups at the US Space and Rocket center campground.. It is the home of space camp. 
They actually shoot off model rockets that the campers have made right in an area close by. fun.
This morning I am going to over to tour the center. There is a full size mockup of the Shuttle on the booster rockets here.
Then on to Atlanta or NW of the city. I don't want to go near that traffic!
Mike and Gary Billiard  are there in their new motorhome visiting their grandkids so I will see them.

The RV is fixed! After Allegro Service center I went over to the local Freightliner. Two dudes jumped right into the problem. What a riot. They found 2 issues, one a very loose connection under the dash and 2 a bent pin in an interface in the back engine area.  It was awesome.

So my ice maker works, I have new roof vent covers, my infrared ëyeballs"for the rv remote work.
Some cosmetices were done. I am a happy rv Rita. 

Time to walk Emma. Have a good day.

Making Progress

Well, I have an appointent to go into the service bay at 0645 tomorrow morning. 
I have that bay for 3 hours. I am hoping that they get all my issues done in that 
time and I can head north east. Fingers crossed. Praying it works.

More tomorrow.

Red Bay!


Tiffin Motor Homes as far as the eye can see!

I made it to Red Bay and I have a parking space complete with
50 amp hook ups. I have some issues that need to be fixed while 
the coach is still under warranty. I will sit here til it's done!
Then on to more fun adventures. We already had an Alabama 
thunderstorm.  TTFN

Starting my trek north

I am writing this from Maxwell AFB Famcamp tonight. Emma and I drove out of Eglin AFB at 0941 this morning, leaving Matt and Kaiah behind to get back to living life together. It was sad, and hard and 
that's ok. Adventures lie ahead. I drove about 150 miles on mostly 2 lane roads through rural Alabama. 
Weather was a little drizzly but not bad. 
The gas stations here are not very RV friendly. 
Tomorrow I am heading to the Tiffin Sevice in Red Bay Alabama. I hope to get my items tweaked quickly.
More from Red Bay,,,,,,

Home Sweet Florida Home

We made it to Florida today at 1730, after a 400 mile drive today. 
I am tied down in the RV on base at Eglin FAMCAMP (RV Park) So happy to be here

Matt is at his house off base, with A/C issues, as in it isn't working. 

He will probably be here soon to cool off spend the night and watch the Dbacks game.
