FALL ROAD TRIP BEGINS

Pre Delivery.

Casino Lot

We started our Fall Road Trip after taking delivery of Norv III by sticking close to the dealers just in case there were any issues that needed immediate attention.  Since we are now exciles from Port Susan (because Norv III exeeds there coach size limit) we came to the free RV parking area at the Tulalip Casino in Marysville.  We spent Thursday night on the dealers lot moving, finished up Friday morning and headed for Marysville about 10:30.  There are no hook ups of any kind there so we spent Friday night, and all day Saturday and Saturday night "dry camping" which means we used the tanks onboard and ran our generator for electricty.  To our delight everything worked correctly.  The most serious issue I had to deal with was tightening up a loose door handle on the refrigerator - something right up my line of work!  Arlyene did some shopping and I worked on getting the towing equipment set up for towing my pick up truck and in the evening Mary and Nathan came by for a visit.  Lots of Canadians down and the lot was full both nights.  Nice folks but because of the heat they sat outside talking until the wee hours of the morning so poor Arlyene did not get much sleep.  Me?  I just "turn off" and nothing bothers me.
