We do tow the Hummer but it's 6,000 lbs of dead weight and I wanted something a lot lighter. With us getting the car back I thought about selling or trading the Envoy for something but I have to convince the wife first. She wants does not see the logic of getting another vehicle just to tow once or twice a year. The benz with a trailer would be about 1,000 lbs lighter but I would still have to buy a trailer. I want something small to flat tow and not worry about a trailer or a tow dolly.
The wife loves the new backsplash in the kitchen, she said you know we should some carpet back down in the living room area. The PO tore it out all the flooring and put in vinyl squares thru the whole coach, it has grown on me. It makes it easier to keep clean but carpet would be nice.
My knees quit aching so much after I retired and I don't have to run everyday, hope she gets better.

Get some carpet runners before you go to the beach. That will remind your wife why carpet and Rv don't mix well.
She said this series hurt a little more than the ones last week.

We have rugs and runners now but she wants to help me upgrade the interior. The oil filter finally came in yesterday so going to try and do the generator service today during lunch. The mower tech turned in his 2 week notice yesterday, I am not heartbroken over it. He is a great small engine mechanic but is always in a bad mood and just a real pain to work with.

After 4 days in Fl our sheets felt like 120 grit sandpaper and we have vinyl floors. Debra's knee is a little sore today. She said they went deeper and hurt more this time. Next week is the actual burning, then they do the other knee
