First I have to tell you that Saturday mornings are the nuts for finding something interesting on satellite TV. Boring, Boring, Boring…
OK, there are more important things to do on a Saturday morning, but it was raining heavily and is really wet outside so we’re sitting it out for the sun that is supposed to come out soon.
Well it’s been a while since I last wrote in this blog, so I’ll try and catch up a little. On the 1st of May we pulled into Goshen, Indiana for a week with the HRRV 419 Club/Seminar/Rally. The “419” is a well organized group of Holiday Rambler owners that started a “Special Interest Chapter” interested in the continued maintenance of the Holiday Rambler Diesel Pusher motor home. Seeing as how we own one of those “diesel pushers”, we decided that we would most likely find this rally to be of high interest to us. There were about 250 motor homes that showed up for this gathering and for most of those here, this wasn’t the first time attending. This gathering of HRRV 419 takes place annually and is always here in Goshen. It’s been Goshen because of the central area of the states, and because the Holiday Rambler factory was located just a few miles away. In the good ole days, the factory was well attended at the rally and able to teach and handle a lot of the needs of those that had a warrantee problem or just need a helping hand. On a daily basis, Louise and I had a medley of classes we could take from entry level to advanced convection cooking to lubricating and changing the oil on the motor home. One of my favorite gatherings was the “round table” discussion. Overall there were about 8 different round table discussions so we all chose the one that fit the age and type of HR motor home that we owned…it was really well done and I learned a lot about “our” coach. As always when we attend gatherings like this, we have met some “new friends”. In parking the motor homes, we were parked pretty close to each other
