Hi...I'm Rod...

...and I'm a Escapeoholic
Just wanted to say hello, and thank the forum for shortening my learning curve.
Located on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington and looking for a gently used 15B, 17B and 19 ? ,if there are any nearby in Western WA owners, would love to see one up close, if you have one or thinking of upgrading/sizing, let me know, have US/Ca funds available for the right loaded rig.
Thanks,
Rod

Hey Rod Rat. Welcome, and the best of luck in your quest to find an Escape. You have yourself on a good path. Have you checked out the Owner's Map at the top of the page?

Welcome, Rod! Yes, there are two Escapes in Port Townsend and one in Sequim. I believe these folks frequent the forum so maybe they'll see your posting and send you a private message.

Good luck in your search.

Thank you very much, Karen, here's hoping.

JB thanks for that tip.
Looking forward to this wander, down this path, Ralph Waldo E. said it pretty well for me when he said " To finish the moment, to find the journey's end in every step of the road, to live the greatest number of good hours, is wisdom.

Good luck in your search for a gently used Escape. Hope you find what you are looking for. Seems like this forum and the fiberglassrv.com are the best places to look. Might also try craigslist or ebay. You never know.

Hi Rod

Good luck in your search. Like your name us/ca bar rat, had I thought a little longer I could have chosen something similar instead of part of my town name, named after the guy you quoted, and my post office box! We live virtually on the border.

Why did you sell your Gabriola property? We'll be out your way just across the water from you visiting Victoria for a month or so this winter.

Adrian,

I have lived in the PNW 67yrs, and have always thought, you could have no better neighbor as a country, than Canada, and have scurried across that border back and forth more than I can count over the years, it rebalances some of my internal moving parts, every journey up.
Many of my dearest and closes friends are up there and have offered there generous hospitality any time, and I don't even have to mow the lawn anymore.
To answer your question regarding Gabriola, age mostly and to much stuff to take care of, But as Arnold said " I'll be back " and would like to add, " in Canadian Style "
Let me know when you are in Victoria, I'm minutes from the Coho and go up all the time.

Take care & safe travels,

Rod
