Expecting a 21, mid-September

[QUOTE=Kameleon2524@comcast.net;90758]Attachment 10317


The dogs look right at home in their new trailer. Our Coco loved it on the first day, and by the second day she was getting downright territorial.

We turned it on and the microwave worked!
Keenan, did you perhaps mean a 1500 watt inverter, as Bill mentioned? That's what Escape offers as an option, and a 600 watt inverter would not be able to run most microwaves, including the one which is optional in an Escape.

Just turning it on and having power at the microwave suggests that this trailer also has the optional transfer switch.

Woohoo! I signed our build sheet today!

Went 'round and 'round over the oven vs. cooktop; ended up getting the oven.

Otherwise, it's pretty much as I figured a couple of months ago.

Now on to the task of paying for it!

These gals will help fill it up. 55 lbs each.

And, I'll still be able to open the bathroom door!

Mary, Kim and I will be visiting the factory Friday 18th September some time after the noon hour and then again Saturday morning for one last look. Hopefully we will run into each other.

Our orientation appointment isn't until the following Friday. Even though our build date is the 14th, we postponed the pickup a few days so we can attend the NOG (outside of Portland) the 1st of October. I'm finally going to meet (in person) a bunch of peops that I've known and worked with for years.

Can Hardly Wait!!

Sorry to miss you and Kim, though!

Here she is, tucked into her parking spot, in our driveway at home. Oh what fun it was to go fetch her!

Now we just gotta get her title and license...

Thanks, Robbie. No rush. We have plenty of things that need to be accomplished in the next few days. But, we'll be happy to get to the point of working on the headboard. : )

That appears to be an uphill battle there, is is easy to access?

Mary, we enjoyed being your 'neighbors' at Fort Stevens. Your parking pad looks as pleasant as most campsites!

Mary & Skip,

Congrats on your new 21, hope you make lots of wonderful memories! Sorry we missed you at the NOG! Just finished a trip around the US and got home the last day. The 21 was great!

Happy Trails,
Dave & Kathie

Thanks, Doug n' Sooz. We enjoyed our stay with you, too. And as I work on adding end cushions to our standard dinette, I'm thinking this morning about how great your contrasting pillows look(ed). Such a nice thing to get together and share ideas. (Got your crab tongs yet?)

Jim, it depends on what you mean by "easy." It IS an uphill battle, but the new pad is level, and there's plenty of room. The front stabilizers are great, too: the Casita didn't have those and jacking up the front so high always seemed a little weird. (The Escape doesn't need to go up as high, either - I think because of the way Skip prepped the wheel pads.)

Anyway, I took my morning coffee up there and must say it's very nice now that it's situated. Why leave home? Just boondock in the driveway...
