Pat & Jim Dick came by on Friday and loaded our freezer full of meat into their fridge, saving us one big headache. We had a ton of ribs for the rally plus a couple pot roasts and a London Broil we planned to use at another affair after we left the Fall Rally. The physical hugs helped even more - we needed them badly!
We've been packing our personal gear in boxes and loading into the back of the Acadia. We decided we had enough room without getting a U-Haul, but it was tight! Gave away a bunch of other frozen food to the guy who towed us in and also donated Nancy's potted plants to his wife.
I've been trying to reach a motorhome collision repair shop called Mike's Collision Center in Wilmington, NC, to arrange to have the coach towed there and repaired. They had already closed when i called at 3 pm on Friday and nobody on Saturday either. I left voicemail and sent an email, so hope to hear something soon. Looks like a good place, though, with their own frame shop and 45 foot long spray booth for painting big rigs.
Nancy and I expect to leave Selma on Sunday morning and stop to visit a friend in southern South Carolina Sunday night. They will give us a room, a stiff drink, a good meal and a lot of sympathy and we need all of that!
