Furniture Upgrade

 

On Sunday the 3rd of May we landed at the Bradd and Hall facility in Elkhart. As I had related earlier these folks had fashioned our new computer desk and had it delivered to Dallas so now it was time to get new seats up front.

 

As we came in Sunday night there was nobody around but we were told to just hook up to the 30 amp posts in the drive and someone would see us in the morning.  We did just that and had a very quiet night.

 

 

The next morning about nine as advertised Derek knocked on the door and said that they were ready to put in our seats. We moved the Flying Scotsman into the garage, secured Bandit in the bedroom, and went to Cracker Barrel for munchies.

Below is a shot of the front of the bus when we came back in an hour or so with no front captains chairs.

And Charles Casey with both the old and new seats as he transferred the required parts from one set to another; old ones on the right and the larger new ones to the left.

The Bradd and Hall garage was really functional and made it easy to work on the interior. In their showroom they had many examples of all the really neat and extremely professional interior work that they do here. From one piece of furniture to a whole interior renovation they are really super.

Charles and Derek had the seats installed by about 11am on Monday so we hit the road north. The new seats are so different and wonderful that we had no idea how bad the other ones were for over 40,000 miles!

We were about 70 miles from South Haven Michigan and our favorite place called Sunny Brook RV Park. We got in there about 2pm after a leisurely trip in the 75 degree weather ... wonderful weather trip so far with no appreciable rain or wind.

Upon arrival we were placed facing the lake about 2/3 of the way down on the left ... wonderful view looking at the lake toward the north. Our lot faced east and as usual made for a nice evening view.

And I couldn't omit the springtime arrival of some of our Canadian friends with their brood. On Tuesday the 5th we were off to Port Huron and our usual night there before crossing into Ontario.
