STILL IN KANSAS CITY

We're still in Kansas City-sitting in a motel room, waiting for them to put in a new transmission in the RV. Thank God it's still under warrenty! You know all this stuff is above my head, but apparently the Allison Co. tried to save money on some bearings and they ended up costing them thousands of dollars in replacement transmissions. They were amazed that we were able to hobble in to KC. Hopefully they'll be done around noon and we'll be able to head out. We had to stay in a motel, because they're not used to RV's and were afraid to let us stay there. It's also jacked up, so it would have been difficult.
Anyway, I don't have my pictures in the computer yet, and don't have the cord with me, so I'll back up to last weekend later.
For those of you who believe in prayers, our son with five children lost his job on Friday-nothing he did, just a sign of the times. If you pray, please add Russ to the list, if not cross your fingers! Those of you who know him, know he can sell ice to the eskimos, but times are tough. We'd appreciate your help.

Gosh, really feel for you. We are sending positive vibes that they do a good job and you will sail along soon. Sorry to hear about your son. We will sure send up some prayers for him and his family. This recession has not been easy for the masses.

Oh, Toni I so sorry to hear about Russ's job situation. Hopefully it won't be long before he finds something else. My heart just breaks for these young kids. He will be on the top of our prayer list. Also, yikes about the coach. Hopefully that too will be corrected soon.
