We are Homeless???

Before I tell you how two people that own a house in Midlothian, VA and an RV can be homeless, I want to talk about our recent trip without the RV.  It was wonderful.  The time with Diana's family is always fun and the stop in Amelia Island, then in Port Orange and then the cruise were all great.  The visit with my family over Christmas was very special and will be a great memory for a life time.  The visit to Brandermill church and with our neighbors and friends while in Midlothian was amazing.  And finally our trip back to the RV allowed us to see some former neighbors.  An amazing 5 weeks away from the RV.

But we are ready to get back to the RV and return to some routine.  But wait...the RV which was supossed to have all the worked completed so we could pick it up on 12/30 may not be ready until January 2 or maybe later.  What!? How can this be?  The dealer has had the RV for 5 weeks!  We want to get home!!!

You may recall from a previous post that we were getting a new wind shield due to a disagreement with a rock.  Wind shields for RVs are not like those for cars in that glass places do not stock them in their inventory.  So it is special ordered.  Ours had been ordered by December 10, maybe sooner, and so I expected no issues.  Well I called the dealer the other day and the wind shield had not arrived yet.  I called yesterday and it had arrived and they were going to try to install it in the afternoon. Time for a little side bar here; Due to the holidays, and a death of a family member of our service writer, the normal work schedule has been compromised.  Also, the person who is trying to help us is wearing several other hats as well.  The dealership has been very helpful and provided me with all the info they can.  They have even had to track things down and have called me back several times.  End side bar.

So we are in Charlotte, NC with no where to go until at least the 2nd.  And that is how we are homeless!  Fortunately we are in a nice hotel that we have extended our stay until Monday.  But after that we are not sure where we will be or for sure when we will be able to pick up our home.  We'll keep you posted.
