2008 08 24 through 29 - Red Bay, Alabama

We headed to the Tiffin Factory in Red Bay, Alabama on the 24th to take care of a few bus maintainence items. We checked into the Allegro Campground on Sunday and got put on the list for Express Service. Monday came and went without a word, so we weren't sure when they'd get to us. By Tuesday afternoon we were in a bay with a couple of Techs. They made great time, but didn't quite finish.

Since we were in no hurry to get away, Nancy started working on having a few after-market items she'd been wanting installed - a sliding drawer in the cabinets under and over the sink and to have the wardrobe refitted with a shelf. Chris worked magic and in no time the task was finished. Wow! What a difference a few small changes can make.

We then decided to add sunscreens to our bus - so we waited around Red Bay a couple of additional days for Mr. D to finish the installation. The screens were well worth the wait - they really make the bus cooler. Once again, we scratch our heads at why we didn't have them installed when we first got the bus.

In a couple of days Service was finished with the repairs.Our stay at the factory went well so we're moving on to Memphis to explore Elvis Presley's home and to work our way through some BBQ! Wish us well.
