Sleeping in the recliner has become a habit with me and last night was one of those times that I passed out in the chair. Believe it or not I wake up so rested when I sleep in the recliner…unlike the bed I sleep so soundly and wake up so refreshed. What is it with that?
Sherri was up in the kitchen pouring a cup of coffee when I came out of my comma. I looked around to see where I was…something I use to do on the weekends when I was young and use to party all night. Well I still do that now that we are are on the move so much. You never remember where you parked last night and you have to get a location in your mind before you venture out. The inside of your home always looks the same but the outside changes and it takes time to put all this together while on the road.
OK I came to and now know where I am and realize that it is time for me to get up and have my coffee before the sun gets up too high in the sky. Sherri drank her coffee down and then headed off to take her shower and get dressed. I, on the other hand drank mine and then poured another so I would have something to sip while I caught up with all the folks on the journals.
Sherri left and I read the last journal…then it was time for me to shower and get dressed. I needed to clean the BBQ grill and put some other stuff away in the bay. While I was doing all this Sherri’s brother, Danny called. He was not too far from the park and wanted to know if I want to go with him to eat and then to look at some RVs down in Ennis Texas. I said…sure…and he dropped by about 12:00. We took off for a restaurant that he knew about and had a real good lunch. Danny paid for my lunch which was really nice…Thanks Danny!
From there we headed down Interstate 45 toward Ennis Texas to the Casita Trailer Factory. Danny had notice the factory while driving back from Houston. He is interested in buying a trailer to do some traveling in and really did not want a large trailer. He found out that he could pull this with much less truck and still be economic. It is just him and he did not need a lot of room just to site see so this might be all he needed.
We arrived at the factory about 1:30 and went through the three models they offer. I will have to say they are very well built. They are in two pieces…the Top…and the Bottom. They are solid shells with only one seam in the middle about half way up. No chance of leaks on these puppies and they are tighter than Dick’s hatband. The price was not too bad and Danny walked away seriously thinking about it. He is in no hurry and might even see about a used one. When your not living in one you can have a lot less….for less $.
Notice the one seam half way up…and that is the only one on the entire rig.
Price not too bad either…Something to think about.
We returned back to the RV about 3:00 and Danny helped me get my Satellite on line….thanks again Danny. We visited for a short time and then he had to leave for home before the traffic got bad. All in all it was a real nice day…very enjoyable.
Sherri got home about 4:30 and we ate stir fry and then packed up for the Wally World run. I had to get a shorter dump hose and Sherri needed to pick up some grocery items. We were in and out fairly quick and then back home in time to watch our shows.
I guess I will once more try out that recliner…it sure looks good and I am really starting to dose off….

I love my recliner as well & am trying to figure out how to put a good set of wheels under it & tow it along down south with us & if Kelly drove the motorhome I could stretch out back there & enjoy the warm breezes blowing by.....:))
I'd like to get rid of our hide-a-bed couch in our 5'er and get 2 recliners as well - they are a lot more comfy, that's for sure. I sure like that idea of 'top and bottom' for the trailers, too bad they don't do all 5'ers like that.
This is what you boys need:

Must have been something about the night. Mark slept in his recliner too. LOL
Have fun in Kerrville and say hello to all from us.
Hugs and hope to see you soon. We need a long visit.
Hi....love reading your blogs!!! Sure wish we had two reclyners in our 5ver. Probably too soon to even "go there" with that conversation with DH now. But am already thinking...our sofabed could go and I wouldn't mind. It's not comfortable as a couch anyway. Am think two reclyners would go where the sofabed is now (see pics on my blog--HomeSweetHome-On the Road)). And...where we now have two swivel chairs (which actually aren't bad)....I was thinking of "chaise lounge" I saw on line at IKEA. Will see!!! Take care you too and drive safe!
Hey Joe,
I don't know what the problem is. Please let me know if you still have problems posting.
