Happy Thanksgiving...

Boy, a lot can happen in a week…  Louise and I woke up last Sunday morning and decided to “surprise” our daughters for Thanksgiving.  This was going to be the first time that all 3 of our daughters were going to be able to get together for Thanksgiving in years and we wanted to be a part of it too.  Sooo, off we went.  It took a little time and effort to get the coach put into “storage” but once it was done we saw nothing but the roadway disappearing out our back window.  884 miles later and we were pulling into Woodinville (Seattle area) and getting ourselves all ready to “eat turkey”.  Now some of you may remember that we have been giving some thought about picking up a new “toad”, and now that we have a few days without a schedule to keep we decided to go looking in earnest.  We did find a couple that really fit our needs…looks in good shape in and out…priced reasonably…not too heavy to be pulled…and had all the camping needs for us when and if we were to take a side trip in it.  Well before we signed on the bottom line we went to talk with “the expert” in towing.  I had heard about this thing called “a drive line drop” but really didn’t know a great deal about it. “ Yep, they work, no I don’t recommend it”…  A little more discussion and I was convinced that this wasn’t going to work for us.  Well now back to step one.  We really wanted a campervan but now we would have to go with our second choice.  It wasn’t that we were unhappy with our 4X4 Chev Tracker, it’s just that we wanted a little more room.  An SUV that had always come up in conversation between us was the Suzuki Grand Vitara 4X4 so we went to see what we could find and besides, we knew that this would tow 4 down without any modifications.  Hell, in town for two days and we’ve bought ourselves a new “toad”…
