RE: dumb roo questions
As stated before, the beds fold out.
We have the 3 bed model. We can use the bathroom, kitchen, eat at the table and lounge on the sofa with all 3 beds up. We usually do this when travelling far enough that we need to stop for bathroom breaks, eat lunch or just want to take a break. Very convenient.
Originally, we looked at the Roo 19, but, since the 233 was longer with 3 beds for less than $900 and around 500lbs more, we went with this one. We already had the tow vehicle and knew we had plenty of headroom for more weight.

RE: Urbanna Oyster Fest Virginia
Urbanna Oyster Festival
The Fest usually happens every year the first full weekend in Nov.
We were there again this year. Great time had by all. Perfect weather this year.
We have family with a house on the Tappohanock just up the road in Dunnsville. We set up in their driveway for a couple of nights. We use the van as the bus/cargo carrier and drive into Urbanna before they close the town down. We set up for the day at the Methodist church on the lawn and have a great site for parade viewing and walking to any part of the Fest. Parking was $20 and it goes to the church. You can park your RV at the church. No hookups. I think that's $40 or $50 for the weekend. A great deal if you want to do that.
I was brain dead this year and forgot to take charged batts for the camera, but, I got some shots early on. Of course, they ran out just as the parade came by our position.
Early morning after setting up at the church. Plenty of coffee and the Irish whiskey, Bailey's Irish cream, halfnhalf. MMMMMMMMM

The food is wonderful and plentiful. If you're on a diet, this is not the place to be as it's way too hard to stick to it. Believe me, I've tried. LOL

RE: Mid Atlantic Group Elk Neck Md. Sept 24 - 26, 2010
I just found out an old friend has joined the RV world. He had a small util trailer he had converted to carry camping gear and his motorcycle, but, apparently wanted to upgrade. He now has a class A. We talked for about an hour a little while ago and I suggested he get on here and get in on the action. His name is Dave (yep, another Dave) and he's one of the best. If he gets on here, give him a big Mid-Atl Group welcome.
Now we'll have to get ya'll down here for a rally.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA scheming in Hookville. :W

I leveled the "playing field" for you Matt.
And you still look too tall ;)

Now everyone looks like they're going to fall :@
Great. Now everybody is going to think I was drunk when I took the picture. "Really, it was the bad leg on my tripod, I swear." :W
Ok. Here you go. The magic of Photoshop.

Jay do you have the group pic?
I would like to send a pic & a big thank you
to some of our sponsors.
Gotta stay friendly
Thanks Frank
Here is the 800x600 pic.
I uploaded the full size pic, but, forgot PhotoBucket resizes. I can send it through PM if you want the full size pic.
I need the name of the vendor for the wheel chocks. We got to use them this past weekend up at Loft Mtn. on Skyline Drive and they worked like a charm.

RE: Mid Atlantic Group Elk Neck Md. Sept 24 - 26, 2010
Jay...Remind MrsHybrid233 that you VOLUNTEER your time and talent to the map! LOL!
One of these days, when I wean myself away from my Internet addiction I will learn PhotoShop or something else just a level down from that.
Who ever said he "volunteered" for that job ;)
It's PhotoShop.
I sort of volunteered. I do it because I luvs the people.
You folks are worth every minute. Besides, it only takes about an hour to get the initial map together. After that, it only takes a minute to update/upload it.

No such GSC animal anywhere on profile edit page.
So as not to alert the pixel police, you can CLICK HERE to see it from my screen capture.
Are you going through the Good Sam site to get to the forum and your profile page? That may be the difference. I'll see if I can get in that way.
Edit: I got in to the forum through the Good Sam site and the profile page errors out, so, not that way.

RE: Mid Atlantic Group Elk Neck Md. Sept 24 - 26, 2010
AHA! I found out how to alter the Good Sam badge... Under your profile, there's a dropdown box for "Display GSC badge". Simply select YES (or in my case, NO)
You ust be special. I can find no drop down box. Not a big deal.
You'd better hurry Chris. The sites are going fast.
Sites available: 2, 8, 17, 19, 25, 27, 28, 29
Very good PBS film by Ken Burns on the National Park service on tonight.
Lots of history about how the department came to be. Lots of beautiful scenery. Very kewl.

The Youngs are finally home safe. We actually got in around 8:30. It was an hour before we got the trailer unhooked from the van, set up and electrified. Then we had to eat, so I'm finally getting this posted.
We had a great time with everyone.

RE: insurance cost
Also think about what you're getting for your money.
I find what we pay covers a lot of bases and is worth the money.
And it keeps the bank happy as we are still paying on it.
We're paying $228/year through Twin Peaks.
We have:
Continental Car Club/rental
Emergency Vacation Expense
Vacation liability
Collision
Other collision/comprehensive
diminishing deductible
replacement cost Pers eff
Total loss replacement cost
