Escapees Rally in Sedalia, MO

We arrived in Sedalia, MO on Sunday morning for the 49th Annual Escapade. We've been members for about 14 years but this is our first. There are hundreds of RVs of all kinds at this rally. Here are Joe and Kay Peterson, the founders, during their featured session entitled "They're Having a Depression but We're Not Invited".

American Coach Association Rally

Here is our friend Rick cleaning a bird's nest away from the top of his slide. The birds had vacated.

We arrived at the ACA Rally yesterday afternoon. There are about 169 coaches here. It's very interesting to hear some of the discussions concerning the Fleetwood bankruptcy and the questionable viability of American Coach. Although we do love the American Coach family of new and old friends, after listening Wednesday to American Coach sales and management during a presentation regarding the bankruptcy, we've decided to wait on a new coach and look at other higher end manufacturers.

Back on the Road

We've been on a road for a week, first visiting Barbe and family in Ohio. Then we had some work done to the coach in Celina. We've been in Nashville for a couple of days. Yesterday we woke up to a dead microwave, which Stan took apart and fixed. Later in the day, we turned on the rear AC and smelled an electrical burning smell. Stan diagnosed the problem and fixed it with a new capacitor. We'll be moving on to Arkansas tomorrow.
