Our Friday Pics!
Hi from Bob and Sue,
We are finally on the road from Florida to Nk'Mip after having our new RAM 1500 Eco Diesel get hung up at the dealer for repairs for 2 weeks. It seems that with a new model they don't have the parts they need and have to have them shipped in for each step of the repair. (they can't anticipate and order what they think they might need)
We were able to push out our 5.0 TA orientation from May 29th to June 10th and still plan to go to the Rally without the trailer. We plan to stay at a hotel down the road.
We're looking forward to meeting everyone.
Here are our Friday pics.

If you are making it to Osoyoos, it would not be too tough to take a side trip to Chilliwack to pick up your trailer, no? It sure would be more fun hanging with us, than staying off in a hotel somewhere.

Once we gave up the 5/29 date, 6/10 was Escape's earliest possible date. With all of the pickups and the Rally, there was just no time. So we get to check out all of the other trailers and pick up a few, I mean "many" pointers before we even have our trailer. Maybe we'll stop by to visit it before the Rally. We haven't decided yet whether we'll go north through Sumas or Oroville.

If you cross at Sumas, you can wave at your trailer as you drive by Escape.

Hi: rscovell... Bob& Sue... I don't know if it would work, or if ETI would let it happen, but you could ask!!! Piggy back your orientation with ours on June 3rd. afternoon. Since we have already owned a 5.0 for 6 yrs. we are accustomed to most systems of the trailer. That way we would both be able to have our units for the rally...just thinkin'... TWINS!!!
We are leaving Sun. am. and need to spend an extra day half way to Chilliwack to do an orientation for the new owners of our 5.0.
Staying at a hotel just doesn't seem fair!!!
Either way we look forward to meeting you in BC. Alf

Hi: Vicki A... I think Reace has had his "Nose to the grind stone" to long. It's affecting his sense of humour. Alf

On the Friday I picked up my trailer, I helped finish a few things off to get it out the door. I then headed straight to a rally, and just skipped the orientation. I only had one question that weekend for Reace. For you guys too, if there was any questions, and you had your trailer at the rally........just sayin'
That is a good idea of Alf's (I knew he could come up with some ).

Part II. Completion has been moved up by a week, Jun 9 instead of the 17th.
And yes, it gets more exciting as it gets closer.
