Buying a Motor Home?????

As previously posted, we have been looking at motor homes.  We love our fifth wheel and our truck but have decided it's time to make the switch!  On Monday we test drove a 40 foot Phaeton Motor Home and decided we were ready to order a brand new one!  This will probably be our last RV and since it is also our home decided to get what we want in the way of decor and options!  Believe it or not, they are already making the 2014 model!  We will get it some time in mid to late June!  We are really excited.  Yesterday we went over to pick out the interior colors and just sat in a similar model to the one we are purchasing for half an hour just looking at it and trying to figure out where we will put everything!

Yesterday was a busy day.  We were at Trent's baseball game at 9:00.  It was a really good game and his team won!  It was close right down to the last inning!  He got a solid double and pitched two great innings to close out the game.

After the game we went to La Mesa RV and then headed home to get cleaned up for the Bonita Women's Club Chocolate Decadence!  Our friend Della is a member and so we thought it would be good to go and support her! They had a great turn out and we ran into friends John and Harriet that we used to go on wine tasting weekend trips with.  They hadn't changed a bit and seemed to be doing great!  We are planning a dinner with them in June.  They had cheese, chocolate and wine for tasting.  They had a raffle of some nice donated items but we were not winners.  Probably just as well, we don't need anything else to pack up!  It was over at 5:00 so we went and had dinner with Jim and Della.  We went to an Italian Restaurant in downtown Chula Vista that was pretty good!  It was good to visit with them.

When you have a motor home, you need a tow dinghy.  We also went car shopping this week and bought a 2011 Ford Fusion.  It was a nice clean, tight car that we could get in and out of easily!  No frills but we will get good gas mileage compared to the truck!  Everything seems to be falling into place on the motor home purchase!  Will post some pictures when we get the car and the motor home.  We will probably get the car on Monday.

On Tuesday we will go up to Menifee for a week to our Wilderness Lakes campground.  We will be back to Pio Pico on April 30th.
