Brandee's B-day and a 5K

















Well, as always, we don't let much dust collect on our selves. We always seem to be really busy virtually every day of our lives. And, with our new Motorhome, our lives are no different. Of course, life always has other events that come along the way as well. None the less, we enjoy all of these activities that we enter into. Last weekend, on Saturday, we had a 5K that we participated in with a number of folks from our weight loss class. The 5k was a benefit for the underprivileged youth of Elk Grove. We had to be in Elk Grove at 7:30 am, so for a Saturday, we had to rise and shine mighty early in the morning. The morning started out with a beautiful sunrise. Our fall this year has been filled with some really spectacular Sunrises and Sunsets.

After we got home from the 5k on Saturday, I got busy working on installing the tow bar on the front of the Honda. This project required that I remove the old bumper internals and replace it with one that has the tow bar receivers welded too it. Once I finished that, and wired the tail lights of the Honda to a receptacle on the front, and now our little black car is all ready to be towed as part of great trip to Las Vegas for Katie's birthday in early December.

On Sunday, we attended Brandee's 42nd birthday at her home with a number of her friends and family in attendance. Brandee has been very successful in building her clientele since she sold the Beauty Emporium and started to focus on her business as a Hair Stylist. We are so proud of her.

This weekend, we took the Motorhome and all of it's occupants to Camping World in Rocklin to get a recall take care of on the Refrigerator. This was also a great opportunity to try out towing the the Honda behind the rig. We are really thrilled with how well the Honda tows behind our Allegro Bus.

We are so in love with our Allegro Bus. It is a wonderful rig and we just couldn't be happier. We've had to deal with a few issues on it. We found a water leak on the right of the motorhome where the large awning attaches to the side of the rig. Also, when we were getting ready to test hooking up the Honda to the Allegro Bus, we found the motorhome would not start. So, we've had to put a couple new batteries in the Moho. There are four more batteries that need to be replaced, but they are not as critical and we can wait a while to replace these.
Well, I guess that is all for now. Take care and happy camping! - Eric and Carol -
