1/14/11 R.V. Tampa Show

To those of you that have motor homes

you know that this is a "high end" rv. The most expensive one at the show was 2.2 million dollars. Definitely out of our league. The next picture is of the outside of one of these beauties.



This one has 4 slides. They used to have just two or three.



Surprise!!!!! The RV you have been looking at was just the shell of a Prevost. Cost only $643,000. is what we heard. fix it up any way you like. The ones that are finished are something else. I really do not need all that is in one of them and would be afraid to take it out of the drive for fear that I might damage something.



The Tampa Super RV show is a five day show. You pay one fee of $10 and get in for two days. We went both days. It was cold. I had on my long jons and corduroy slacks, plus sweat shirt and jacket. All kinds of RV and many vendors. We managed to win 4 decks of cards and a coupon for a free camping week. Another coupon for only $89 a week. You have to read the fine print. After March 15th or 30th and first time visitors only. We would like to go back to the one in Fort Myer that we stayed at last year, the first week of April. the one coupon also has restrictions for Mass., two other states and Ontario during the hot summer months. I also won a base ball hat. Whoop ee!!!! The campgrounds have various games that you play and win prizes. pens, key chains, hats, cards and of course time at their parks. I also got a ring! Fabulous. You turn it on and it sparkles. Large soft rubbery ring. Fun.

The second day we were talking to a friend and I said I like the small RoadTrek RV's. A dealer of airstream heard me and said, Well, come look at our small rv's. So we did, for about a half hour. Interesting. Only thing about them is storage space. Of course the smaller the rig the less space for "stuff", so maybe that is a good thing. Just looking, not buying. Interesting to see the different layouts of any RV.

We stopped at a garage sale on our way to the grocery and bought some silver.

Stopped at Big Top Flea Market and found a silver chest. So a busy Saturday. Yes, we did get to the grocery. Time to get busy. Have a good day. jkc
