Can't wait to pick up our 21' Escape in a couple of months!

The anticipation is driving me to drink! Our new 21' Escape will be ready in a couple of months! We have put our 2014 17' Casita Spirit Deluxe on the market, so if you know of anyone interested in our little egg, send them my way.

Congratulations Fred and hopefully your Casita will sell quickly.

List it in the Dallas area Fred, and I'd imagine you'd have several people fighting for it.

We pick our 21 up in about 2 hours now! Like being a kid again! Time seems like it is just dragging.)

Know what you mean and feel! However, for me, it's getting better and I'm not as anxious as I was before. I think it's because I signed off on the build sheet and there's nothing I want to change that's worth another 200 bucks to them to do so. Before I reached that point in time, I knew I could still make changes to the build sheet. I read every post I could to see if there was something worthwhile in regards to the build sheet.

But now, I'm spending far less time here and not reading anywhere near half (if even that much) of the posts/threads here. It's done and signed off on and I'm not making any changes. So, that huge stress is out of the way.

Now I get to anticipate the new truck and canopy, which should be ready in about a month. Start driving it around to get used to it. And then, about a month after getting it, we get to zip up to ETI on Dec 14th for The Trailer. (Two months plus two days, but who's counting?)

I'm filling time getting ready for holiday craft shows I vend at (another reason for the trailer - out of town shows!) and going over my list of things I still need to purchase. And waiting for packages from Amazon. And filling the recycle bin with boxes from Amazon!

So, yeah, Fred, I hope you get past the drink stage. It's much easier to get sleep when you do.

What, you don't want to sleep easier?

Oh wait, you MUST mean the drinking part? Oh man, are you gonna become one of those forum posters that goes on and on about your beer and other booze?
