Good bye to Southern Comfort Hello San Diego Bay!

Spent last nite on June 1st in Yuma Arizona, where it was 110 degrees in the shade.  I swear I will kiss the ground of my home when I arrive where it is 66 and cloudy!  Which is only about 100 more miles.
Wonderful trip, Great Memories.
Things I will not miss:
Putting Doggies on leashes and picking up dog poop
Heat last few days
Mosquitos they love me and got big bites
Casinos that took wads of money
Things I will miss
The desert sunsets
The amazing history of both Civil Rights and Civil War.  Especially Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks sites.....And some WWII.
The alligators up close
Water Aerobics
Cracker Barrel Restaurants and their salads. 
And all the different States we had never seen before, all interesting.
Most of all I will miss the fun Jim and I had as two folks who had to go thru a lot to make this happen...It was not easy everyday. But it was amazing, fun and would not have missed it for anything!
See you at the Bay this summer!

Cameron's Reliable RV Service in Tucson Arizona

If you are ever in Tucson Arizona and need RV Repairs of any sort, I recommend Ken Cameron.  We have had an ongoing full wall slide (Fleetwood) problem since the first day we bought it seven years ago.   It has been looked at by numerous RV Repair Facilities, including the Fleetwood Headquarters in Indiana and the Riverside Office.  No one could adjust or troubleshoot our slide where it would close flush with the side of the Motorhome. 
Upon our Arrival in Tucson it broke down, and Ken was able to troubleshoot, order, repair and upgrade the Power Gear Components without hesitation.  It is not a simple task to replace these parts, and discovery of original installation defects, i.e screws into wood which had to be custom repaired were accomplished with an expertise lacking in all other "Experts" we have  had look at this problem.
It was especially interesting to watch the team effort  which includes Rachael, his wife, as they adjusted all the slide motors and computers to finalize and complete this task.  We also had them replace our full wall slide awning cover which was ripped and never really as tight fitting as it should have been.  We are very happy with that as well.  We are totally amazed at the expertise of this family owned company.  What you get is personal service, professional printed billing estimates and a smile at all times.  Plus you get reasonable pricing, no gouging at all. When you are "stranded" and have to rely on someone, we could not have asked for a more patient and kind team. They answered and adjusted our questions and needs while assuring us and explaining the technical items many times over.  All with a sense of humor In fact, Ken is a comedian of sorts and had us laughing at his "dirty" jokes. Plus we got to meet their adorable 8 year old daughter, Jasmine, she has the same sweet smile and personality of both her folks .  We are indeed happy campers! Thanks so Much Ken and Rachael
