Just got the notice

Casa Ollie, as the missus (Trudi) likes to call it has now hit production, just got the word this morning from Robert. Can't wait!!

And so the excitement begins to build even more....

 

Yea, another egg is in the incubator

That has to be a great feeling. Do you have any travel plans for when you pick her up. Let the planning begin. Best of wishes on your new build and healthy travels.

Thanks and it is indeed, we are looking so forward to this. Our pu date (assuming no bad weather from MT to TN and it could be that time of year), should fall just about on our 30th Anniversary date. So we are planning to take a month off, visit some family and friends in TN, AL, GA, & TX. Then our trip will take us down to the gulf coast for several days maybe longer. We are avid cyclist and this area is a great place to ride this time of year. From there we will head to the DFW-Weatherford area for a short visit then hopefully to Big Bend NP then onto the NM. We love visiting Santa Fe so will probably spend a few days there and then into some red rock country for hiking, camping before returning to the deep freeze here in the northern hinterlands, LOL. Actually the weather has been fairly mild for this time of year the last couple of weeks.

 

We have also discussed going clear down to the FL Keys. Dry Tortuga has been on our bucket list for many years but its just so far away we might be biting off more than we can chew by including this long trip through FL. But man it would be so fun. And FL gets very crowded this time of year, so…

If you do decide to travel Florida, make sure to pm us. If we are around, we'd love to meet you. We are not far from Tampa.

Thanks for that kind offer Sherry and we will do that. Likewise it would be great to meet some of the Oliver clan. Will let you know one way or the other. Also have a buddy who lives in Orlando and would like to visit him at some point.

Rob,

 

Congratulations to you and Trudi on becoming expecting parents of a new Ollie! What options or unique modifications will Casa Ollie be sporting when she makes her appearance in the world?

Thanks Pete

 

Just took deliver on Tues, camped at Fall Hollow for the evening then headed over to visit sister in Cleveland, TN for a few days. The camper has exceeded all expectations. Will follow up with some photos once the weather clears up. We did a few things slightly different with the upholstery we understand has become a bit of a hit.

 

Thanks again

[marsharini]

Congratulations. Looking forward to your pictures.

Congratulations. What an exciting time and your shakedown cruise will be fantastic. If you find your way near Pensacola give us a shout. Grayton Beach is a good state park near Seaside with excellent biking trails. The beach is great, but cold now. We have a forty degree drop in Temp from this morning to the evening. 30 knot gusts. Cold for here.

Great meeting up with you guys amidst all of the busy activity as the ice storm approached.

[routlaw]

Seems like the forum was down for a few days. But yes likewise great getting to meet you guys as well. Been busy the last few days catching up with family but about ready to hit the road again. We did escape just in the nick of time, drove through a downpour on the way over to Cleveland. Good route though, thanks.
