Back Home with a lot to do.

We are back home and our youngest son and his significant other and their awesome six month old dog Libby were here for the weekend.  It was a pleasure spending time with the two of them after not seeing them for several months. 

I have been working on getting our truck back to stock as much as possible by removing the wiring harness for the lights when connected to the motorhome, the tow bar base plates, the tool box, the fifth wheel hitch, the air brake system, and other little accessories I added.  Wednesday I am taking the truck to a local tire/auto repair facility to get the wheels and tires removed and have the stock wheels and tires put back on the truck.  I am also going to have them remove the bed rails for the 5th wheel hitch while it's there.  I will then be ready to sell the truck.

I requested quotes today from three Honda dealers for a Honda CR-V.   I would like to get the new car as soon as possible so I can get the new base plates, air brakes, and wiring harness installed for the tail lights while being towed by the motorhome.  If we can get this all done by the end of May we will take the motorhome to Gafney, South Caroliina to the Freightliner school instead of staying in motels.

On a sad note our 13 year old Shih Tzu Tanner had a seizure today that the vet said was more than likely a stroke.  He flopped around on the floor like a fish for about 10-15 seconds.  I picked him up and Janet and I held him for a half hour or so while he settled down.  We put him down on the floor after that and he walked like he was drunk but slowly seemed to recover.  We took him to the vet in the afternoon and the vet put him on some pills for seizures and gave us another prescription for his arthritis.  We hope this helps and he fully recovers.  We have had Tanner for 12.5 years, longer than any other dog we have owned.  He has given us so much pleasure over those 12 plus years.

We are happy to be home for awhile.
