So much fun! I'm going to have to go back and read old posts to catch up on the story, but I've been following it since mid-June. Dawn - how about a pic or two of the outside? Thanks for sharing this whole adventure with everyone.

I love the look on Echo's face. She is speechless!!! This is such an awesome gift for her, many thanks to you Dawn for your generosity. In a world such as ours that is filled with sad stories this confirms that there are still good people out there.

We've got the tires switched out on the rims now. Mark, SIL, will be back this evening to put the tires back on the TT.

So happy to hear that Echo had a safe trip and the look on her face is priceless. Will be keeping track as she makes her way back to TN safely.

Just talked to Echo and she is about 40 miles out of Texarkana. She does not know if she is going to find a campground or motel for tonight. She is burning up with no AC in that truck. I sure hope she runs into cooler temperatures the further she gets from Texas heading home.

I wouldn't bank on cooler temps - heat index here right now is 105 degrees! OUCH!

I doubt she'll stay in a campground, she likes to travel as much as she can before stopping. She posted on FB just now that she stopped in Hope AR for gas & ice water.

Heat index was 105 here today too, Mitch. I don't think she will stay in CG either.

Thanks Red. I really hope they are more comfortable. God has blessed me in so many ways. This was just being able to pass one of His many blessings on.

Red, will definitely have your tent with remote at the Canyon Lake GTG! :lol: :lol:

Just saw this for the first time!!!

Ya'll are full of bull pucky! LOL Yes Echo was excited and overwhelmed! As a matter of fact I am still kinda in shock that Dawn has given us such an awesome and outstanding gift. We will feel that we are living like princess's in this new trailer. I honestly don't know who is more excited about the trailer. Kelly or I! :D

The only downer was that I didn't find John Trvolta hiding in the shower waiting for me! ~sigh~ I would do my damnedest to give Kelly McGinnes a fight! :lol: :lol:

As to the traveling out to TX? If I had gotten out of here when I wanted to I would probably have done the whole trip in on day. It isn't really "that" far when your not towing. Would have saved the money for the motel too!

OK am gone now. need to get dressed and out the door.
