So sorry that it has been so long since I posted. We got moved into the Alamo condo full time at the end of may and sold our five bedroom house towards the end of june. It all happened so fast. It was hard at first getting rid of 21 years worth of belongings. As it progressed it became very liberating to be rid of all those material belongings. I was a little discouraged at first with the workmanship and lack of good quality control but all issues have been addressed very well by our dealer. We had been to the houston rv show prior to buying this home and have been to two since. As industry standard seems a bit lacking in quality. With that said we are still very pleased with our San Antonio compared to what we have seen as recently as last weekend at the ft worth show. I made an uneducated purchase by not getting the heated tanks and a few other things available in what I believe might be called a fulltimer package. We moved to Childress in Sept. for work and currently still here. We have had temps in the negative single digits and have stayed plenty warm with the help of small electric heaters. We have really come to love living the simple life. Its nice not to own a bunch of stuff and with the sale of our large family home we were able to pay off the alamo condo, buy a new camry and pay off all our debt. Lori was able to retire at 38 years old and I have 10 more years to draw full retirement. We have not a care or want in the world. We go see our grown kids at least twice a month and spend time with the grandbabies. After awhile we have become accustomed to dodging and dancing around each other while we are both moving about inside the house. We have really come to love this rig. Everything has its place and we still have storage room left unused. My most recent project is to relocate the furnace thermostat somewhere other than right above the heat register on the stairs. This summer I am going to replace all the plastic pex fittings with brass and install heat pads to the holding tanks. I am also going to insulate the belly better. I didn't think to do anything to the two roof ac units before winter hit. I'll be happy to any suggestions anyone is willing to share. In ft. worth last weekend we looked at many many new rigs and came to the conclusion that we still like ours best for our needs. We looked on a new key largo and it was beautiful with the new colors. The san antonio just fits us better because of the washer dryer stack not being in the bedroom closet. I see they added more corner shelves in the shower. We have determined only a front living room landmark would improve our wants. I hope everyone is safe and having the time of their lives.
