Busy, Busy!

More RV hunting. We drove a Holiday Rambler Vacationer, 30'11" class A gas powered coach on Monday, then drove to Tucson on Tuesday and drove a 29'11" Newmar Bay Star, gas powered. They are built on the same chassis with the same engine so they drove the same, but we had to try them.

We spent Tuesday night in Gila Bend and drove on into the Palm Springs area on Wednesday. We are camped at the Lake Cahuilla County Park. After a quick walk thru the FMCA rally and an extensive search of the RV's on the fairgrounds in Indio, we had dinner with our friends who are wintering in Palm Springs.

Early on Thursday we met our friends and went back to the FMCA Rally. We found the Blue Ox dealer and made arrangements to get our tow bar fro the car serviced and bought a new braking system for the towed vehicle. We then bought a tour package with Fantasy Tours to attend the Hot Air Balloon Festival in Albuquerque, NM in October. We again met with our friends and had dinner at one of our favorite restaurants - Zin, an American Bistro. After dinner we walked the Palm Springs street fair.

Friday found us playing golf at Shadow Mountain. I had a really good game considering I haven't played for 3 months (and I think my girlfriend is really generous with my scores!). John wanted to go home after 9 holes, if that tells you anything.
