Sharp's Travels

Bill and Lynda picked us up at 9:00 am and we headed for the big RV show in Tampa at the Fairgrounds. As soon as we got there we met up Johnny & Paulette Morgan from Lexington NC. They are also a couple that went on our Alaskan caravan in 2008. They are down here for the Alaskan Rally next week. It was great to see them again. After a visit we all went our separate ways as we all had different thing we wanted to see and do. The first place we went was the Excel dealer in hopes there was someone from the factory. Brian the president of Peterson Industries that make the Excel 5th wheels was there. So we had a nice visit with him to express our concerns about some of our problems that the dealer didn’t take care of to our satisfaction. Then we found a dealer for Electrical Management Systems. I had done a lot of searching on the internet and wanted to take a look at them. The EMS-HW50C was the one I needed and the only problem was the price, after a little haggling I got it for the price of an internet sale. So I save $30.00. We also checked out many of the new 5th wheels and all the vendors. At 4:30 pm we met Bill & Lynda at the gate we came in. On the way home we stopped at Golden Corral for supper. We all left there saying we eat too much, which is normal. Then it was back to our place for a game of dominos which the girls whipped us guys bad, they won by over 500 points. It was another fun day to spend with friends and the weather even cooperated.
