Good morning all
Getting my baby ready for the season. On trip this week end to Califonia saw three coaches. Going West saw a all white coach, Coming back East saw a all Orange unit. Looked like the orange one was being brought back to Arizona by new owner, and saw one other white and black parked in lot off I-10 in the Tucson area. Most I seen outside a rally

Good Morning, Marcel

Here in NY, we don't see many GMCs around. I do frequently pass a
repair facility out east on Long Island where I visited Cal Clements
a couple of years ago while he was having work done on his coach.
There is a nice metallic gold Florida GMC that has been there
frequently and I saw it on front ramps for a couple of days last week
and yesterday.

That inspired me to check out Indian Island, a Suffolk County
campground. There was only a handful of RVs but one was a light
yellow 23' Birchaven. It was loaded with bikes and there were camp
chairs set out, but no one around, unfortunately.

It was nice to see...

Good morning
To me it's unfortunate we do not see more of our coaches on the road. These
units are terrific and with summer coming up I expect to see more of them.
We are taking ours to San Antonio, Texas in July and probably on to Florida.
Took it to Alaska Last summer and had great time.
Marcel
