Noooo! I so hope it's nothing major!

I was getting nervous myself. Monday I had the roof resealed and the slide gaskets(?) checked because of a one-time leak. Got her home that afternoon and NO POWER, not DC or AC - nada! I also discovered one of the two backup cables on my tow bar had a broken clip. And here I was about to leave 24 hours later! It was after hours, but I got a hold of the service manager by cell. And then when my friend's electrician husband kneeled in front of the fuse box (i.e., over the battery compartment), the lights came on. :roll: Returned to service (this is at the dealership) first thing Tuesday morning - my last day in town! and they waved holy water over the battery cables and connections and replaced the 2 fuses at the solenoid behind the battery tray. sheesh! Talk about last minute! Oh, and they gave me a new blue tow cable too.

Back on topic...I'm about 3 hours away from Silver Spurs, but I'd like to stop at the Columbia Gorge Discovery Center (The Dalles), so probaby mid-afternoon for me too.

Oh Judy I hope it's an easy fix!

Dense fog advisory here in the valley this morning and it is pretty thick. I'll be heading out this afternoon. I have to wait for the yard people and the garbage truck to come before I can pull the trailer out of the driveway. I'm shooting for mid-afternoon so maybe we'll all arrive together!

Remember, we're not an official "group" so we can get the Passport America rate ;)

See everyone this afternoon and hopefully we'll get some good pictures since the weather is predicted to be fabulous!!

We've all arrived at the park safely. We had dinner on our own and then had happy hour. It was sunny and warm this afternoon but has cooled down quite a bit. It will be a chilly night.

Dogs L-R Koko(sp?) hiding behind judi, Tucker and Bailey. Judy (Aokay) usually shows up mid-gtg with someone else's dog so I'll get a picture of that addition when it happens :twisted:

Image
All lined up except for Joan. She's across the street. I'll get another picture with Joan's rv in it tomorrow.

Image
Ellen's festive holiday decorations (please note the appropriately colored dog waste bag tied to the steps. I think they did a really good job matching the pumpkin color)

We haven't figured out what we're going to do tomorrow...

A few minutes later Laura pointed out evidence of a dog having been there and wondered if it was Harley's poop or...? I think if you look closely at this pic, the guilty canine is revealed!

Another great day here in Oregon. It has been foggy and cold all day but we all got together this evening so here are some pictures.

Image
This was dinner tonight. Everything was very tasty!!

Image
The rest of us weren't sure what was on judi's phone but it was apparently entertaining...

Image
Took me awhile to figure it out but here is the group shot. L-R: Ellen, Judy (Aokay), Laura (Cougarfan), Joan and Judi

Tomorrow we're going to a barn dance. Hopefully we'll get some pictures. Or, maybe not ;)

We're having a great time!!

I was hoping to get down there yesterday to help give Ellen a big sendoff, but my house guests didn't leave untill yesterday. Ellen, have a great time, you can do it!
Just a side note: Is anybody from the last Oregon GTG missing a teaspoon? I have come up with an extra that doesn't match my set. If it is yours, send me your address and I'll mail it to you.
Hope you all are having a great time - wish I was there
