Our plans were to leave at noon today. Well, we pulled out from the house at 12:05pm heading to Pelican Lake. By the time we unhooked power and hooked up the jeep we were actually on the road by 12:45.
Bentley seems to be liking his "rock star ride". He quickly adapted to his "spot" - which is the couch....what's not to like? He was a bit nervous at first, but seemed to settle right in.
True to form, we hit quite a downpour just outside on Sarasota. Haven't seen it rain that hard since leaving Illinois last fall!! So much for the clean Blue Bus.
After about 3hours we arrived at the Marathon Coach Service Center. Bob got his parts. Actually they were repairing some shades we had for the front. Cost of parts (which are no longer made) were quite reasonable, but Bob just about choked at their labor charge. Especially since they are now too short. So, after Bob re-installed them, he had to take them down and we will leave them here with hopes for correction. Meanwhile, there is quite an inventory of used buses here. Bentley and I have taken a brief walk around and we agree nothing "trips our trigger" but Bob had yet to make the rounds. Ugh. (There is a nice burgandy bus and trailer to match, but then we'd have to change the blog name - let alone go back to work to pay for it)
Plans are to head out early in the morning. Nice to have a short day and get a few hours out of the way before tomorrow.
