Winter 2013-14 Quick Trip to Oregon to Pick Up New RV

Oregon to Arizona

We have been waiting for our new motorhome for over 2 months.  Unfortunately, the 2013 Monaco Knight has proven to be very unreliable and we have negotiated with Monaco to turn it in.  So, we will have a 2014 Fleetwood Discovery with a Cummins engine!

 

We drove the Knight up to Coburg Oregon in late January to exchange for the new one.  Heading north in January is not quite what we like to do.  The warmth of Arizona is where we should be headed.  However, we need to get the new rig before heading south

We didn’t quite get out of Oregon in time.  We ended up stranded in Coburg for 3 days due to 6-8 inches of snow and then sleet and ice. 

 

We found out the new Discovery is well insulated!

 

Finally got turned south in early February.  First stop Yuma to see our “Blender” friends. The new coach is really quiet and the ride is very smooth. We are very pleased with the new coach.

Charlie had a birthday on Valentines Day and we all went to Algodonas Mexico to celebrate. 

 

 

 

We may have had a few too many margaritas!

 

 

After Yuma we went to Apache Junction and Lake Havasu.   Stayed at the Refuge Golf Resort in Lake Havasu and played golf almost every day for a week.
