Monday (7/6)   Well, today is going to be a shocker.  We went to Van City RV in St. Louis and purchased a very small motor home.  It is a Class B  2006 Roadtrek RS Adventurous.   It has 22,000 miles on it and looks brand new inside and out.   It will sleep two and at 22 ft long will be easy to park.  It looks like the new UPS trucks except that it is longer.  We think that on long trips like this one, life would be easier in it.   We will not be picking it up until sometime in Sept.

For all our T@B friends, the T@Brific is going nowhere - we will keep her and use her mostly in the summer to go to rallies and camp with our other T@B friends including Sandy and John Lubowitz, our T@B neighbors.  Sue is not prepared to let her "doll house" go.

On to our next city - Springfield, IL.  We arrived late in the afternoon and went to a Springfield Sliders baseball game.   This is a prospect league and the players have to have one year of college baseball under their belt to play in it.  The manager is Jack Clark, a former major league player.  These types of ball parks are fun to go to because they are so family oriented and there are many activities that are cute for the kids.

  1. Huh?? Huh??? Shocker is right. When I recover I'll comment.... OK, I'm recovered. The van looks like a beauty! Can't wait to see it and yes it makes sense for long trips to have the space that I assume this will give you. WHEN ARE YOU COMING HOME? WE MISS YOU!! Plans for the T@B rally are coming along, we need your input.

  2. I forgot the most important question, DOES IT HAVE A BATHROOM?
